lyrics

In the art of playing music I’ve had many lessons
Tutorials in technique and improvisational sessions
But they all forgot to tell me about the gear I’d carry around
And set it up, set it up, set it down

I’ve played in orchestras and jazz bands, a little bit of rock and roll
Gone folky on the Friday, Saturday covering soul
And I take my apparatus everywhere over the town
Set it up, set it up, set it down

Some people go to the gym, pay a small fortune each week
To keep their muscular fitness somewhere near its peak
But I don’t pay to weightlift, I’ve got the amplifier carrying crown
I set it up, set it up, set it down

Well the hard work sets the stage like the winter sets up summer
And when I’m feeling low I think “at least I’m not a drummer”
And I wrote this song to sing to alleviate my frown
As I set it up, set it up, set it down
Set it up, set it up, set it down
Set it up, set it up, set it down
