lyrics

Benny's playground warzone never felt like a fair fight
The boy's would tie his arms and legs and get Melanie to bite
He'd try to hide at break time but they'd find him all too quick
So he'd hide inside his own mind, or pretend that he was sick

But hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Chorus
Hallelujah, hallelujah, the knots all came undone,
and nobody is gonna do ya
Hallelujah, hallelujah, you know that God is on your side
When all the bullets pass right through ya

Benny's dinner money went on ten bags of quavers
Then he'd sneak on down the gravel pits to watch his feathered
saviours
He'd sometimes stay all afternoon coz he had a rebel heart
Then he'd sit and plan his great escape like a warrior set apart
Hey, Hey, hey, hey, hey

Chorus

Benny got across the border to another playground in the sun
Where all the girls would talk and smile, and the boys let him
join in the fun
He'd sometimes make the whole class laugh, got to play drums in
the band
And a pretty angel called Laura Dee drew love hearts on his hand.

chorus x2
Sing out for Benny's Hallelujah.

David Fee Campbeltown, UK

Neither music, nor life, should be a lonely journey.

Music is about making connections and trying to make sense of it all together. That's the thing I'm aiming for when I write and record.
