He wishes he was just like him
His lucky and genetically thin
He wakes up next to movie stars
And they get with him
But that's not everything
Punk rockers go to see him play
Chicago, New York, Glebe, L.A.
Offending mainstream TV stars
And they laugh with him
She shares a bath with him
And you're lucky that you met me
Because I'm arrogant like Ben Lee
And some poeple they don't get me
'Cause I'm a genuis like Ben Lee
He's featured in glossy magazines
The envy of guitar-toting teens
Admitted to exclusive bars
And they let him in
'Cause he gets everything
Coke, champagne, aeroplanes and cars
He wakes up next to movie stars
He's friendly with famous people's kids
And they get with him
'Cause they get everything
And you're lucky that you met me
Because I'm arrogant like Ben Lee
And some poeple they don't get me
'Cause I'm a genuis like Ben Lee
His lucky and genetically thin
He wakes up next to movie stars
And they get with him
But that's not everything
Chicago, New York, Glebe, L.A.
Offending mainstream TV stars
And they laugh with him
She shares a bath with him
Because I'm arrogant like Ben Lee
And some poeple they don't get me
'Cause I'm a genuis like Ben Lee
The envy of guitar-toting teens
Admitted to exclusive bars
And they let him in
'Cause he gets everything
He wakes up next to movie stars
He's friendly with famous people's kids
And they get with him
'Cause they get everything
Because I'm arrogant like Ben Lee
And some poeple they don't get me
'Cause I'm a genuis like Ben Lee

damn straight! ben lee IS a genius
I love Ben Lee... But this song is pretty funny
first of all, this is not the only anti-ben lee song, but this is more of a joke i think, and not a personal attack, like the ataris song.
this is song is about ben lees arragonce, not his relationship with clare danes.
his arragonce comes from this story: when ben lees album 'tornadoes' came out he said something along the lines of 'this is the greatest australian album ever.' bernard fanning from powderfing went on to call ben a 'precocious cunt.'
that aside, i still believe this is more of a joke than an actual attack.
this song also kicks ass!
argh another one.
this better be a joke because ben lee is a wonderful man. i've only met him once.. whatever...
but klinger is so fucked up if this is serious
hate all emo bands
Ive never even heard of klinger fucking drop outs
