Benny's On The Rooftop Songtext
von Mark Wilkinson

Man us kids, we can be so cruel
Teen armies never suffered no fools
But Benny was a sucker
Man he never really fit in
Poor Benny had to do his time
Just breathing was a capital crime
Man we made him suffer
Benny never really knew why

This time I think we′ve pushed too far
This time we've opened up a scar
This time we′ve pushed him to the edge
This time it's really gone straight to his head

Benny's on the rooftop man
I think he might′ve jumped this time
You didn′t see the look in his eye
I think we've pushed him way too far


Benny′s on the rooftop man
I think he might've jumped this time
You didn′t see the look in his eye
I think we've pushed him way too far
Way too far

So come on Benny step on back from that ledge
′Cause we didn't mean a word that we said
Yeah we thought your skin was thicker
Than the lines that we fed

I saw him rocking on the edge
With the years of anger, isolation
Running through his head
Nah, Benny don't step off that ledge
For the world will drown in your river running red

Benny′s on the rooftop man
I think he might′ve jumped this time
You didn't see the look in his eye
I think we′ve pushed him way too far

No, no

Benny's on the rooftop man
I think he might′ve jumped this time
You didn't see the look in his eye
I think we′ve pushed him way too far


Yeah, he might've jumped this time
He might've jumped this time
He might′ve jumped this time
Benny might′ve jumped this time

Yeah, he might've jumped this time
He might′ve jumped this time
Benny might've jumped this time
I think he might′ve jumped this time

Benny's on the rooftop man
I think he really jumped this time
You didn′t see the look in his eye
I think we've pushed him way too far

Benny's on the rooftop man
I think he really jumped this time
I think he really jumped this time
He really jumped this time
He really jumped this time
