Drums or Drugs?

**The Flying Mouse** · 24 Sep 2012, 14:10

No, that's not an offer

We've sort of touched on this in another thread.
What do you think makes the best lyric? Sex drums and rock n roll, or sex drugs n rock n roll?

I prefer drums.
It just sounds more original and fresh.
A clever play on words.
Much more Steinmanesque IMHO.

Drums, definitely sounds better.

id like to hear the orginal version where meat said drugs. it sounds too censored to me like forget you or the clean version of Payphone by Maroon 5. it doesnt even make sense

same thing goes for "shit" being replaced with "spit" on IJWQ and "I dont give a Damn" is an obvious overdub on louder for possibly the f word or shit as well.

hate censorship

I agree. "Drums" is surprising, and there already is a song called Sex And Drugs And Rock And Roll. I like hearing the unexpected.

The popular phrase "sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll" was censored to become "Some days I just pray to the god of sex and drums and rock and roll."[6]

from Wikipedia... I KNEW I'd heard the "drums" bit from SOMEwhere... whew... I've not totally lost my mind yet.. and I vote "drums"... it sounds smoother... as someone said ... mmmm ... s ... xo

Drums for precisely the reasons The Flying Mouse gives.

Now THERE'S a sentence where it sounds like drugs were involved. :)

Couldn't agree more

I saw a t shirt the other day that said "sex and drums and sausage rolls" lol. Wouldn't have sounded as good in the song though.
