Hiroshima

Ben Folds - Hiroshima (B B B Benny Hit His Head)

Start of the show
Hiroshima
And the people were shouting my name
As the house lights came down
And the spotlight followed me out
I waved hello to the crowd
And busted acts off of the stage
Oh oh oh oh...
They're watching me, watching me fall.
Maybe it was a rush of adrenaline
As the concrete rose to meet face
Maybe it was the sheer embarrassment
That kept me conscious and standing
As I crawled back up on the stage
And started pounding out the first song
There was blood on the keyboard
Oh my God...
Oh oh oh oh...
They're watching me, watching me fall.
Oh oh oh oh...
They're watching me, watching me fall.

You wanna see what's in my head?
You wanna see what's in my head?
You wanna see what's in my head?
Check it out, because
I got pictures of what's in my head
I got pictures of what's in my head
They took them in Tokyo
And I brought them back to the USA
Oh oh oh oh...
They're watching me, watching me fall.
Oh oh oh oh...
They're watching me, watching me fall.

It's true, I fell and hit my head, you know,
I mean my head and my ankle was black and my head got a concussion,
they took x-rays and I asked the doctor if he could tell if,
whether I was...I didn't speak Japanese...talking to him.
Does this song end?
