Drum
A small pitter-patter,
A little sound echoes
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by rusty copper bars, he waits
And plays a little drum.
A little sound echoes
Off deep red walls
Withing a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by black iron bars
And plays a little drum
Off of deep red walls
The beats resound
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by silver steel bars
And plays a little drum
The beats resound
Thump-thump... thump-thump...
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by brilliant gold bars
And plays a little drum
Thump-thump! Thump-thump!
Faster, faster he drums...
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings,
Inside a prison, a small boy became a man
Trapped by white, bone bars
He learned to love.
A little sound echoes
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by rusty copper bars, he waits
And plays a little drum.
A little sound echoes
Off deep red walls
Withing a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by black iron bars
And plays a little drum
Off of deep red walls
The beats resound
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by silver steel bars
And plays a little drum
The beats resound
Thump-thump... thump-thump...
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings
Inside a prison, a small boy becomes a man
Trapped by brilliant gold bars
And plays a little drum
Thump-thump! Thump-thump!
Faster, faster he drums...
Within a cage, a bird beats his wings,
Inside a prison, a small boy became a man
Trapped by white, bone bars
He learned to love.
