Miguel - Bennie and the Jets lyrics

rate me

ft. Wale

Hey kid, shake it loose together

The spotlight's hitting something

That's been known to change the weather

We'll kill the fatted calf tonight, so stick around

You're gonna hear electric music

Solid walls of sound

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet

Oh, but they're so spaced out, Be-Be-Bennie and the Jets

Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful

Oh, Bennie, she's really keen

She's got electric boots, a mohair suit

You know I read it in a magazine

Be-Be-Bennie and the Jets

Hey kid, plug into the faithless

Maybe they're blinded

But Bennie makes them ageless

We shall survive, let us take ourselves along

Where we fight our parents out in the streets

To find out who's right and who's wrong

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet

Oh, but they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets

Yeah, but they're weird and they're wonderful

Oh, Bennie, she's really keen

She's got electric boots, a mohair suit

You know I read it in a magazine

Be-Be-Bennie and the Jets

Better keep one road and heard she’s back

In a mohair suit signing autographs

She hates the media, it brings her down

But when you decide you gonna need your fans

Make a flip flop when your CD out

She was sitting up but you’ll need it now

Believe in luck, be ready, baby

‘Cause either way you gonna need it now

They build you up so they can break you down

Cry tears of joy so they can see you drown

Chew you up and then they spit you out

You are now a victim of the crowd

And music’s lost its soul

And the female’s selling sex and no concern in getting more

So they concerts on they souls

So they concerts on they labels

Now we pay them to perform

See, the way this game is set up

We can’t let this show go on, no

We gonna love the when the party’s over

I’m saying everybody love ‘em but nobody know ‘em

I’m saying everybody know you but nobody need you

So will she still be in your heart when she ain’t in your speakers?

Oh, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet

But they're so spaced out, Be-Be-Bennie and the Jets

Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful

Oh, Bennie, she's really keen

She's got electric boots, a mohair suit

You know I read it in a magazine

Be-Be-Bennie and the Jets

Bennie, Bennie and the Jets

Oh, you look so good on that stage, baby

Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets

Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets

Oh, do you think we’ll meet up after the show?

I sure hope so now

Yeah, she makes the mohair suit look so good

I mean, where do you get a mohair suit anyway?

Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets

Rock on, alright
