From the recording I Love To Hear The Sounds
There are many different ways to play with this song. It is often used as a food song; making Aikendrum’s head out of various foods. It can also be used to highlight different instruments – he played on a drum…etc.
Lyrics
There was a man lived in the moon, in the moon, in the moon,
There was a man lived in the moon, and his name was Aikendrum.
And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle
He played upon a ladle and his name was Aikendrum.
He played in a band, in a band, in a band......
He played in a band and his name was Aikendrum.....
He played very softly, softly, softly
He played very softly and his name was Aikendrum
He played very loudly, loudly, loudly
He played very loudly and his name was Aikendrum
There was a man lived in the moon, in the moon, in the moon,
There was a man lived in the moon, and his name was Aikendrum.
And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle
He played upon a ladle, and his name was Aikendrum.
