I am but a fool they say
something like a child
but today is my birthday
and they will be nice
I’m but your fool they say
true that’s when I think
my mind is drifting away
I feel that I sink…
See Benji is a fool
a child who’s 30 years old
who would go dressed in the pool
they are telling him there is gold
see Benji…
Candy is a friend of mine
she sees what I see
she knows what’s up in my mind
she won’t laugh at me
Candy is a friend of mine
she sees what I see
sometimes we play seek and hide
she makes me happy
Candy, Candy
Candy is a friend of mine
I like the touch of her voice, Candy
but today is my birthday
and they might be nice
she knows what’s up in my mind
she smells like a tree
See old Benji is a fool
a child who’s 30 years old
who would go dressed in the pool
they are telling him there is gold
see Benji, just look at him
Candy, Candy
I’m but a fool they say
something like a child
but today is my birthday
and they will be nice
I’m but your fool they say
true that’s when I think
my mind is drifting away
I feel that I, I’ll sink…
