Benny My Dear

If you tell a bad joke or whether you're broke

It doesn't really matter to me

You don't act your age and your mother's insane

But nothing good is coming for free

I just wanna tell you when you're down on yourself

I won't be out looking 'round for nobody else

Benny, my dear, how's the view from up here?

When you were a kid, I know that you hid

From everything that you had around you

So I pulled you in and I know that it's been

Hard to have my love surround you

I just wanna tell you when you're down on yourself

I won't be out looking 'round for nobody else

Benny, my dear, how's the view from up here?

(Hmm-hmm-hmm)

Benny's on the mountaintop

(Hmm-hmm-hmm)

Benny's on the mountaintop

Don't be afraid that you're gonna get hurt

If you're living that way, Benny, you'll never learn

For whatever it's worth, I know I touched a nerve

Don't be surprised by the love you deserve

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Benny's on the mountaintop

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Benny's on the mountaintop

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Benny's on the mountaintop

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Benny's on the mountaintop
