Hey kids shake it lose together
The spotlight's hitting something that's been known to change the weather
We'll kill the fatted calf tonight so stick around
You're gonna hear electric music, solid walls of sound.

Say Candy and Ronnie have you seen them yet, oo but they're so spaced out

She's got electric boots, a mohair suit, you know I read it in a magazine, oh
B-b-b-Bennie and the Jets.

Hey kids plug into the faithless maybe they're blinded
But Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets to find out who's right and who's wrong.

Oh Candy and Ronnie have you seen them yet, oh but they're so spaced out

It falls in the category of 'Pop' and is definetly not rock 'n roll.
