Hey kids, shake it loose together,
the spolight´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
but they´re so spaced out, Bennie and the jets,
but they´re weird and they´re wonderful,
oh, Bennie she´s really keen
she´s got electric boots a mohair suit,
you know I read it in a magazine,
oh! 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 who´s right and who´s wrong.
Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
but they´re so spaced out, Bennie and the jets,
but they´re weird and they´re wonderful,
oh, Bennie she´s really keen
she´s got electric boots a mohair suit,
you know I read it in a magazine,
oh! Bennie and the jets.

About this song: Bennie And The Jets
The lyrics to this jazzy tune satirize the rock music scene of the early 1970's by telling the story of a fictitious band, "Bennie and the Jets", that the narrator is supposedly a fan of. The hand claps on this song were overdubbed by producer Gus Dudgeon to give the song a "live" sound, which complimented the mindless fanaticism of the song's narrator for the band in question. This song was a major hit for John and songwriting partner Bernie Taupin, peaking at #1 on the pop charts in early 1974 and also providing John with his first top 40 R&B entry.
