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 what 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 ....
