Jesus Bill

'Those drums had a family
beating them like they owe him money

The drums went home crying and bruised
their being punished
no doubt absolutely savage

Those drums wish they were never born
their grandkids are feeling it today

Brutal and clean for the shitty old drum set compared to todays
committing assault and battery like they pissed him off
beating them like they scratched his Camaro

Hitting the skins like a sadist
sounds like he's playing with baseball bats
sounds like cannons going off
sounds like he's shooting down enemy aircraft

The drumset cried in pain after this song
they still have a restraining order against Bill to this day
hit them so hard the guys who made them felt it
anti war song yet the drums were absolutely tortured

Bill played the elephant ballet
hitting that snare with such malice man
kicked the hell out of his kit
full on warzone

50 years later, those drums still haven't recovered
basically dropping bombs and machine gun fire
they died for the cause
they were cremated and buried after the show
rumour has it that even today they're still warm

Bill Ward is slapping the living shit out of those drums
he hit them like they were the very war pigs themselves

Christ Bill, what did those drums ever do to you?'
