lyrics

once upon a good time
in a land not far from here
there was a small boy
by the name of Benadere

He minded his parents
like he knew he should
he saw to his chores and
he saw that they were good

he always believed
what he was told
the wisest of the land
were those who were old

But one day he heard a man
singing to a crowd
the things he said then filled his head
with a brand new sound

So he fished out all his pennies
he kept in a jar
he went to town and bought himself
an electric guitar

he practiced all day
he practiced all night
he played 'til his fingers bled
and he blurred his eyesight

before long he formed a band
and went out on the road
there he found a land of women
always ready to go

life became an insane daydream
he had all he wished
but that was not good enough
there was something that he missed

back at home
he may not have been a hit
but at least people
gave him respect

so he broke away from the group
B-B-B-Benny and the Deers
He returned home expecting love
but all he got were jeers

so he started another group
and renounced his family name
he went on to make a million dollars
whining about his fame
