Lyrics

Where?s Benji?

Benji shot the ball as good as they come.
The newspapers said he could go pro.
He led his team to the championship.
But on the day of that game, he didn?t even show.
It wasn?t the first time. It would not be the last.
He?d disapear, and leave everyone to ask:

Where?s Benji?
That boy?s such a clown.
His head?s in the air, can?t keep his feet on the ground.
Where?s Benji?
Nobody knows.
He?s gone the way the wind blows.
Where?s Benji?

He studied law -- was the best in his class.
Got three interviews with an excellent firm.
Everybody thought that the deal was sealed.
Till he walked away from school in his final term.
It wasn?t the first time. It would not be the last.
He?d disapear, and leave everyone to ask:

Where?s Benji?
That boy?s such a clown.
His head?s in the air, can?t keep his feet on the ground.
Where?s Benji?
Nobody knows.
He?s gone the way the wind blows.
Where?s Benji?

I got a letter from New Zealand.
Said he was coming home to stay.
And he couldn?t wait to see his old best friend.
That was 3 years ago today.

Where?s Benji?
That boy?s such a clown.
His head?s in the air, can?t keep his feet on the ground.
Where?s Benji?
Nobody knows.
He?s gone the way the wind blows.
Where?s Benj?
