Lyrics

(Ooh)
Every day at lunchtime, Benjamin
We talk about the same old things
How she wouldn't take your ring
Mmm (Ooh)
Every day at coffee, Benjamin
I listen to the same old spiel
How you think she's such a deal
(Ooh, aah)
But tell me, Benjamin
How could she be such a deal
When she makes you feel so bad?
After all the trouble you and she have had
(You and she have had)
It's all I can do
To keep from telling you
She's no good (She's no good)
Benji, you should
Find someone new
(Ooh)
Every time I see you, Benjamin
She's always what is on your mind
How she's got you in a bind
(Ooh) Ooh
Always when I see you, Benjamin
I ask you if you've had enough, haha
You tell me that you called her bluff
You're just kidding yourself
You could never call her bluff
When she's got you so mixed up
After all the times you and she have broken up
(You and she broken up) Oh
It's all I can do
To keep from telling you
She's no good (She's no good)
Benji, you should
Find someone new
Hey, Benjamin
How about me and you?
(Ooh, Benjamin)
Oh, Benjamin
You should find somebody new
How about me and you?
Hey, Benjamin, Benjamin
We talk about the same old thing
Of how she wouldn't take your ring (Benjamin)
Benjamin
Hey, Benjamin
