Parralox - Little Drum Machine Boy

Little Drum Machine Boy

Written by Simeone / Davis / Onorati

Verse 1
Come they told me, pa ra pa pum pum
A new born King to see, pa ra pa pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa ra pa pum pum
To lay before the King, pa ra pa pum pum
Ra pa pum pum, ra pa pum pum
So to honor Him, pa ra pa pum pum
When we come.

Verse 2
Little Baby, pa ra pa pum pum
I am a poor boy too, pa ra pa pum pum
I have no gift to bring, pa ra pa pum pum
That's fit to give the King, pa ra pa pum pum
Ra pa pum pum, ra pa pum pum
Shall I play for you, pa ra pa pum pum
On my drum?

Verse 3
Mary nodded, pa ra pa pum pum
The Ox and Lamb kept time, pa ra pa pum pum
I played my drum for him, pa ra pa pum pum
I played my best for him, pa ra pa pum pum
Ra pa pum pum, ra pa pum pum
Then He smiled at me, pa ra pa pum pum
Me and my drum.

Additional Info: The very first song recorded for Holiday '14. In the spirit of many bands who released Christmas albums, I felt the time was right to do the same thing. But Holiday '14 was initially released as a Limited Edition set of 50 CDs to a group of Parralox fans. They sold out instantly and so conzoom Records agreed to do another run of the CD, which also sold out. We have awesome fans! In an attempt to be clever, I decided to give the title a little bit of a twist, hence the addition of Drum Machine to the title.
