Ben Zanotto Lyrics
There was romance in the air for sure
There was romance in the air
When the autumn sun light Sharmon Palms
There was romance in the air
Sitting on the steps shit-head drunks
We had a crew and we called it The Skunx
Punk rockers, skinheads, misfits & misunderstood kids
Me and Ben, we spent years
By the palm trees drinking beers
Where the center of the universe was a street called Sharmon Palms
Youth was exhausted
Some took it harder than most
My best friend crumbled
And he withered away
I went back to the palm trees
The safest place that Ben could ever be
Mixed his ashes with the dirt
He was safe there
There was romance in the air
When the autumn sun light Sharmon Palms
There was romance in the air
We had a crew and we called it The Skunx
Punk rockers, skinheads, misfits & misunderstood kids
Me and Ben, we spent years
By the palm trees drinking beers
Where the center of the universe was a street called Sharmon Palms
Some took it harder than most
My best friend crumbled
And he withered away
I went back to the palm trees
The safest place that Ben could ever be
Mixed his ashes with the dirt
He was safe there

i stole this song from the internet...im a thief...i steal music....its a good song though...it was on the rancid (2000) vinyl...how it was on napster....uhh i mean..uhh...youtube...ill never know
this song sounds like it's good... i've never heard of it. someone should get on this and say where it's from.
i'm thinking lars wrote this for his friend ben who died? i've heard talk about his old crew the skunx and stuff. and he grew up on sharmon palms
Ben Zanotto was Lar's best friend growing up. He is dead.
he mentions ben zanotto in roots radicals.
what cd is this on?
This is on the Let Me Go EP, which I can't seem to find ANYWHERE it seems. I think it was only released in Japan. :/
From the bits and pieces of what I've heard of the song it's pretty good
well this song is now on the A's and B's CD but yes I got to agree it's about his dead friend Ben Zanotto
very good song. I also enjoy the Na Na Na Na Na's
Ben was my boyfriend for the past four years of his life. He was arrested for drug possession (I was clean) and this piece of shit lawyer wanna be bitch took him under her wings and scored him an inordinate amount of heroin which ultimately killed him in her home. Stupid bitch called me asking me what to do when she found him dead in her bathroom. My daughters middle name is a tribute to Ben.
