Bangin On Those Drums
Hello everybody!

This is my first post on DU! I'm a music enthusiast and a great fan of Oswald (UK indie rock band). Each Oswald's track has very wonderful substance. The same with their "Bangin On Those Drums" - the one about children in poverty and war zones. Please tell me what you think. Thanks

Bangin On Those Drums

Recorded @ Konk Studios, London
Produced by Ben Mason

Lyrics: Tom, Music: Oswald


I see you out there
I see you on your own
I see you out there
I can do you no harm
I don't know which way you turn
I don't know which way you run
And I don't have anymore words
I can take you to a place of safety
I can help you escape from this now

And you're bangin on those drums
And you're screaming out for something
And you're bangin on those drums
And you take it to the streets
And your bangin on those drums
You're calling out for someone
You're bangin on those drums

You held your children
Wiped their tears in the night
You lay beside them as we set the sky alight
I can take you out of this
I can take you by your hand
I can put my arms around you
Take you to this promised land
And I can make a difference

And you're bangin on those drums
And you're screaming out for something
And you're bangin on those drums
And you take it to the streets
And your bangin on those drums
You're calling out for someone
You're bangin on those drums

Yeah I coming to get you out of this
Yeah I coming to get you out

And you're bangin on those drums
And you're screaming out for something
And you're bangin on those drums
And you take it to the streets
And your bangin on those drums
You're calling out for someone
You're bangin on those drums
