“Bang Dem Sticks” is a track from Meghan Trainor’s debut album, Title.
It’s a drum-heavy, song with a swaggering tempo, which implements an extended metaphor of a drummer to a good lover.
[Intro]
I love it when it's loud, I love it when it's big
You can feel it in the crowd
Come on, bang dem sticks
I said I love it when it's loud, I love it when it's big
'Cause you can feel it in the crowd
Come on bang dem sticks
[Verse 1]
The dumb drummer, sicker than the swine flu
Don't really need medication, he got a tissue
And when he bang bangs, don't need to boogie
But he might be sweeter than my, my favorite cookie
When he plays, uh, he got a hold on me
In a race, yeah, he got the winning streak
And ain't nobody got a drummer like mine
He can bang dem sticks, he can throw dem high, ha!
[Chorus]
I got a thing for drummers, how the beat shakes up my heart
I got a thing for drummers
So baby, show off all dem tricks and bang dem sticks
I got a thing for drummers, how the beat shakes up my heart
I got a thing for drummers
So baby, show off all dem tricks and bang dem sticks
[Post-Chorus]
I love it when it's loud (I love it when it's loud)
I love it when it's big (I love it when it's big)
You can feel it in the crowd ('Cause you can feel it in the crowd)
Come on, bang dem sticks (Come on, bang dem sticks)
I said I love it when it's loud (I love it when it's loud)
I love it when it's big (I love it when it's big)
'Cause you can feel it in the crowd ('Cause you can feel it in the crowd)
Come on, bang dem sticks (Come on, bang dem sticks)
(Go bang dem sticks)
[Interlude: Meghan Trainor]
I don't think they're ready, it's okay
Ah-ah-ah
[Bridge]
Triplet, triplet, all that shit
He lookin' so good when he bang dem sticks
He can do the paradiddle with a little bit of samba
And all the girls scream "I want your drummer's number"
[Verse 2]
But wait a minute, what trick is going on?
You here to see M. Train because you love my songs
But there he go again with the double stroke
And I ain't talkin' dirty, I ain't makin' no jokes, nuh uh, nuh uh
And he can play all night
Whatever get you hype girls, whatever gets you high
'Cause ain't nobody got a drummer like mine
He can bang dem sticks, he can throw them high
Come on
[Chorus]
I got a thing for drummers
How the beat shakes up my heart (Oh yeah)
I got a thing for drummers
So baby, show off all dem tricks and bang dem sticks
I got a thing for drummers
How the beat shakes up my heart (Shakes up my heart)
I got a thing for drummers
So baby, show off all dem tricks and bang dem sticks
[Post-Chorus]
I love it when it's loud (I love it when it's loud)
I love it when it's big (Don't you love it when it's big?)
You can feel it in the crowd (You can feel it in the crowd)
Come on, bang dem sticks (Come on, bang dem sticks)
I said I love it when it's loud (I love it when it's loud)
(Come on) I love it when it's big (I love it when it's big)
'Cause you can feel it in the crowd ('Cause you can feel it, babe)
(You can feel it, babe) Come on, bang dem sticks
(Come on, bang dem sticks)
(Go bang dem sticks)
[Outro]
Hey
Hey, uh-ah
Come on and bang dem sticks (Hey)
(Hey) So baby, show off all dem tricks and bang dem sticks (Hey)
Ah, come on and bang dem sticks (Hey)
(Hey, hey)
Well everybody love the drummer

I wrote this song by myself in my little Nashville apartment and recorded the vocals there. [A friend of mine] produces in New York and sent me a beat. I fell in love with it. And it was my favorite song, one of my favorite songs, because it showed my rapping, my rap flow! And, uh, how I love drumme...
