Benjamin Songtext
von Sam & Julia

It′s late in the evening
And Ben should be lying in bed
But mother decided
To take him to the bar instead
And the waitress says
"What's up your sleeve this time?"
And he says
"I′ll gladly show you for a dime"

Though he's little, Benjamin dreams big
He'll fool you with his tricks
Our little Benjamin dreams big
He′ll take you back in time
And make you feel just like a kid


This night ain′t no different
From any old Saturday
All of the usual suspects
Are drinking their sorrows away
There's crippled Ken
And Auntie Pen, who′s gone half crazy
As he draws her card
She says, "Ben, you amaze me"

Though he's little, Benjamin dreams big
He′ll fool you with his tricks
Our little Benjamin dreams big
He'll take you back in time
And make you feel just like a kid

Ooh, darling Ben
Time is turning you into a man
(Darling Ben) Darling Ben
Time is turning you into a man

Though he′s little, Benjamin dreams big
He'll take you back in time
And make you feel just like a kid

Our little Benjamin dreams big
