Benny & Joon - William Beckett

Hey!

Hey!

Spreading rumors in the hallways, like telephone

Watered down with white noise, overblown

Are they ever gonna just leave us alone?

Take a look at all the white coats in the room

Staring at us sideways, like we’re Benny and Joon

Yeah we saw that movie, too

We know what they don’t know, o-o-o-o-o-oh

We see what they can’t see, o-o-o-o-o-oh

They say we’re crazy

I say well maybe that’s true

But we know who we are now

Just leave us alone.

Hey!

Just leave us alone.

Hey!

When I met you from the voices in my head

It felt like a reaction from all the meds

Now I don’t feel that depressed

Well now they got me strapped down in the chair

But as long as you’re beside me, babe, I don’t care

Well I guess it’s been a really fucked-up year

No, No, we know what they don’t know, o-o-o-o-o-oh

We see what they can’t see, o-o-o-o-o-oh

They say we’re crazy

Okay, well maybe that’s true

But we know who we are now, in spite of all the flaws

In spite of all the poison, chemicals and all

We know who we are now, we know who we are now

Just leave us alone.

Hey!

Just leave us alone.

Hey!

Take a look at all the white coats in the room

Staring at us sideways, like we’re Benny and Joon

We know what they don’t know, o-o-o-o-o-oh

We see what they can’t see, o-o-o-o-o-oh

They say we’re crazy

Okay, well maybe that’s true

But we know who we are now

Just leave us alone.

Hey!

Just leave us alone.

Hey!

Just leave us alone, just leave us alone, just leave us alone

Yeah we saw that movie, too
