Jack Black - Peace on Earth / Little Drummer Boy lyrics
About this lyric:
Jack Black and Jason Segel (co-stars of the upcoming comedy “Gulliver’s Travels” ) released their own take on “Peace on Earth / Little Drummer Boy,” David Bowie and Bing Crosby’s classic 1977 Christmas song.
In the animated video, Jason Segel visits Jack Black’s house to borrow some ginger and discovers a piano. Before Segel hits a note, Black tells him, “I must warn you that this piano has been sprinkled with magic winter dust by Santa Claus himself.”
Segel takes his chances anyway and the two launch into David Bowie and Bing Crosby’s holiday mash-up of “Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy.”
The song was released on December 7 as an exclusive iTunes download, and in the spirit of the holidays, the duo is giving all proceeds from the sale of the song to Blue Star Families, a nonprofit organization that “seeks to connect, support and empower military families by offering solutions that make military family life more sustainable.”
