Subject: HELP ME FIND OUT ABOUT THIS SONG!
There is a song which I have heard on the radio, at the local festival, and on a VH-1 special lately and I can remember hearing it before, but I am not sure if it is from the 80's and I have no clue who made it or it's title.
The lyrics are: 'I don't wanna work, I just wanna stay at home all day..'
It repeats that over and over! Anyone that can help me stop racking my brain is much appreciated! Post it here or e-mail me!
Thanks a bunch...

Here are the lyrics if you were wanting them...
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day
Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don't want no candy
I don't need no toy
I took a stick and an old coffee can
I bang on that thing 'til I got
Blisters on my hand because
When I get older they think I'm a fool
The teacher told me I should stay after school
She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
But my licks was so hot
I made the teacher wanna dance
And that's why
Listen to this
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
And I pound on that drum like it was the boss's head
Because
I can bang that drum
Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?
I can do this all day
Hope all is going well,
I will talk to you later,
Dan

Lindsay -
It sounds a lot like a Todd Rundgren song that was called something like "Bang On The Drum All Day".

My boyfriend was right...We hadn't talked since early yesterday, and when I asked him, he told me that it was Todd Rundgren...
I hate it when he is right..:)
Thanks guys!
