about

'Drums Of A Heatwave' is a sarcastic song written about Martin H. Samuel by Dan Baeza and Tony Spagnolo, who had only ever played cover songs, after he asked them if they had any originals.

lyrics

DRUMS OF A HEATWAVE

HERE WE ARE LISTENIN' TO THE SONGS OF OUR YESTERDAY
IN OUR MINDS WE NEVER EVER GREW UP ANYWAY
BUT NOW WE’RE INSPIRED BY THE DRUMS OF A HEATWAVE
TO MAKE A NEW SONG AN' TO DARE TO BE BRAVE

HIDE THE GRAY STRAIGHTEN UP AND ALWAYS PLAY TO WIN
SING THE SONG TAKE A STAND AN' ALWAYS SUCK IT IN
BUT THERE IS NO TRY THERE'S ONLY TO DO
I'M SENDIN' MY SOUL JUST TO GET TO YOU

WHERE HAVE ALL THE YEARS GONE BY
FROM THEN TO NOW FROM NOW TO THEN
WHERE HAVE ALL THE YEARS GONE BY
FROM HERE TO NOW FROM NOW TO WHEN

HERE WE ARE LISTENIN' TO THE SOUNDS OF OUR YESTERDAY
IN OUR MINDS WE NEVER EVER GREW UP ANYWAY
BUT NOW WE’RE INSPIRED BY THE DRUMS OF A HEATWAVE
TO MAKE A NEW SONG AN' TO DARE TO BE BRAVE

WHERE HAVE ALL THE YEARS GONE BY
FROM THEN TO NOW FROM NOW TO THEN
WHERE HAVE ALL THE YEARS GONE BY
FROM HERE TO NOW FROM NOW TO WHEN

HERE WE ARE ... HERE WE ARE ... HERE WE ARE
IMPRISONED BY THE DRUMS OF A HEATWAVE
