Benjamin


Benjamin . . . Benjamin

Now he's up an gone again

Keeps my nerves upon a pin

Gotta have a talk with him

***

Benji has a sneaky grin

He's such a little larakin

Planning trouble to get in

Some say Benji's born to sin

***

Benny . . . Benny

Stole a penny

Couldn't stop till he had many

Didn't care who hadn't any

Benny always wanted plenty

***

Ben . . . Ben

He sleeps till ten

Then off to rob a bank again

Lives a life of lust and sin

Someday he'll be in the pen

***

BJ whatya say

You'll be gettin out someday

It aint the finest place to stay

But it don't cost much anyway

***

Yo' B

What ja done to me

Stole my fags

An thay ain't free

They be hot commodity

***

Late last night in cell block ten

They heard the last of Benjamin

Benji, Benny, Ben, an BJ died

Yo' B committed suicide
