Metarie (Benson)

 

Met a girl – introduced myself

I asked her to with me and no one else

And she said: I’d really like to see you everyday

But I’m afraid of what my friends might say

You need a bath and your clothes are wrong

You’re not my type I can tell we wouldn’t get along

I just laughed what else could I do

And her friend chimed in singin’ get a clue

Get a life – put it in your song

There’s something I’ve been meaning to say to you

I’d had enough couldn’t take it anymore

So I turned and I ran straight for the door

Bought some mags on my way home

For later on ya know when I’m all alone

Bottle of wine and some cigarettes

Watch TV and go to bed

I know a guy lives in Los Angeles

Sometimes his life there makes me so jealous

I’d like to move out of this place

Change my name – get a new face

Sleep all day stay up all night

And everybody I meet thinks I’m alright

Pat my back say I like your song

Yah, its a great song, Brendan whole cd is awesome..

 

I cant believe more people havent heard of him. I mean, American Eagle is playing him...get with it. :idea2:

:D

I wanted to create a thread for Brendan, but it already exists :D

I "discovered" this talented man these days, I was watching his performance at War Children ;)

Some great songs:

Brendan Benson is absolutely tasty! He is an unbelievable pop classicist, but there is so much more to him. His album One Mississippi is undeniably brilliant.

 

Songs to consider:

I'm Blessed

Your Quiet

Me Just Purely

Sittin' Pretty

Tiny Spark

What I'm Looking For

Alternative To Love

Ok well honestly all of them... but the songs above are especially special

Well, I was looking for some of them, but I didn't find I'm blessed :(

I discovered others songs from BB as well, thanks a lot ;)

I think You're quiet is great, so I decided to post here...

Oh, and Cold Hands Warm Heart is very good too, in my opinion...
