Lyrics
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
Yeah, yeah, yeah
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,
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, oh, yeah
Bennie and the Jets
She’s so good
She’s so good, yeah
Yeah
Alright
Hey kid, plug into the faithless (to the faithless)
Maybe they’re blinded
Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along (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
Ooh, but they’re so spaced out yeah
But Bennie and the Jets
Yeah, but they’re weird and they’re wonderful
Oh, and Bennie, she’s really keen
She’s got electric boots (electric boots)
A mohair suit (a mohair suit)
You know I read it in a magazine, oh
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
You believe in luck, ?
’cause either way you gonna need it now, now
They can build you up so they can break you down, yeah
Cry tears of joy so they can see you drown, yeah
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
That 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?
Sure, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
But they’re so spaced out,
Bennie and the Jets, yeah
Oh, 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
Oh Bennie and the Jets yeah
Hey Bennie (Bennie)
Oh Bennie (Bennie, Bennie and the Jets)
Oh, you look so good on that stage, baby, yeah
Ey Bennie, oh Bennie, yeah Bennie, Bennie
Bennie and the Jets baby
Oh my God, ooh, yeah
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
So good
I mean, where do you get a mohair suit anyway? Ah man
Bennie and the Jets baby, yeah yeah, oh my God
Rock on, alright
Wild times
Right time
