Kim, come and play the drum
Kim, come and join the fun
Can you hear me?
Come and play the drum

Dance a light fandango
Take me ’round and ’round
Dance a light fandango
Never let me down

Dance a light fandango
Take me ’round and ’round
Dance a light fandango
Never let me down

Kim, do not be afraid
Kim, remember what we said
Can you hear me?
Come and play the drum
Come and play the drum
