Rather be drumming

Lyrics

Verse 1 Got a pencil in my hand but it don’t feel right, Math sheet staring at me like it wants to fight. Teacher says “Focus!” but my brain goes boom, ’Cause I’m hearing drum fills echo in the room. Pre-Chorus Letters on the page start dancing on the line — Maybe that means the groove is mine! Chorus I’d rather be drumming than doing math or spelling, Let the snare crack loud, yeah my heartbeat’s yelling. I’d rather be drumming than cleaning up my room — Give me sticks, give me beats, give me rhythm ka-doom! I’d rather be drumming — yeah, every single day, School can wait, chores can wait… Let me groove away! Verse 2 Homework calls my name like “Hey, come here!” But my drum kit whispers louder in my ear. Mom says “Clean your room!” but I’m like “Not yet…” There’s a brand-new beat that I haven’t played YET. Pre-Chorus Dust on the shelves starts tapping to the sound — Guess even my mess wants to dance around! Chorus I’d rather be drumming than doing math or spelling, Let the snare crack loud, yeah my heartbeat’s yelling. I’d rather be drumming than cleaning up my room — Let the kick drum shake the floor like boom-boom-boom! I’d rather be drumming — yeah, every single day, School can wait, chores can wait… Let me groove away! Bridge (Metal Funk Breakdown) Left foot stomping — kick it hard! Right hand flying — wild and large! Books on the desk start rattling too — Even algebra’s headbanging with you! Final Chorus I’d rather be drumming than doing math or spelling, Turn it up loud, my rhythm’s rebel-yelling! I’d rather be drumming than tidying my room — Sorry chores, maybe later — I gotta ka-doom! I’d rather be drumming — let the whole world sway, Drums first, everything else… maybe another day!
