Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, do-yum, do-yum, Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, ba-ba-do-bum
Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, do-yum, do-yum, Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, bo-dum
Though the man's dead, somewhere I read, Shakespeare once said,
You folks can have the men who make laws, give me the music makers
Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, do-yum, I'd give my vote, just for one note
Mendelssohn wrote, and let you have the men who make laws
Give me the music makers
Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, bum, classic music or lowdown
I like opera or eight beats, there's no need for a showdown
Critics say they're all great beats, so let me repeat
Give me a beat, rhythmic or sweet
And you can have the men who make laws, give me the music makers
Ba-ba-ba-do-yum, bum, Ba-ba-ba-do-bum
Ba-ba-da-ba-dum
Ba-da-da-da-badum-bum-bum
Ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-ba-ba-rum-boom
Ba-da-da-da-ba-ba-ba-bum
Ba-ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-dum
Ba-ba-ba-do-ba-ba-ba-dum
I may have read it
Or someone said it
That music makes the wild beast
And there are humans
Who ask for a human
Who don't like one, two, at least
Give me the music makers
Do-ba-do-do, do-ba-do-do
Do-ba-do-do, do-do-do-do
Do-ba-do-do, give me the music makers
Bum-bum, bum-bum
Ba-ba-do-ba-ba-ba-dum
