This month someone found our site when they searched for “packers touchdown song and work all day.” I have to assume they were looking for information about the unofficial Packer touchdown song.

The song is called “Bang The Drum All Day”, and it was written and recorded in 1983 by Todd Rundgren. Todd Rundgren has produced albums for many famous bands from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, but has seen lesser success as an act himself, with this song and “Hammer in my Heart” being two of the more popular songs he ever recorded. I even went to see him perform as an opening act for Shooting Star (or Peter Frampton, I can’t remember which), way back around 1980.

If you’d like the lyrics to the song, so you can sing along to all the touchdowns in the 2007 NFL season, here they are:

I dont want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day
I dont want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day

Ever since I was a tiny boy
I dont want no candy
I dont 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 Im 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 thats 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 bosss head
Because

I can bang that drum
Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?
I can do this all day

And if you’d like to listen to a clip of the song, you can do it here.

Rock on, my brothers!
