Been Swank Lyrics
've been set up like the innocent.
I've been swank
and I'm lovin' it.
I've been alone like a little kid.
I've been swank
and I'm lovin' it.
I've been swank
and lovin' it.
Oh no - it's a sin! The Jury's in.
Doesn't look like I'll be doin' it again.
Cause I've been swank
been swank - and lovin' it.
I've been swank
and lovin' it.
The nights are cold
the nights are long.
I'm alone and I've been alone all along.
I've been set-up like the innocent.
I've been swank
and lovin' it.
I've been swank
and lovin' it.
I've been swank...and lovin' it.
I've been swank
and I'm lovin' it.
I've been swank
and I'm lovin' it.
and lovin' it.
Doesn't look like I'll be doin' it again.
Cause I've been swank
been swank - and lovin' it.
and lovin' it.
the nights are long.
I'm alone and I've been alone all along.
I've been set-up like the innocent.
I've been swank
and lovin' it.
and lovin' it.

This song means to me...
Being exiled to work in the States, not knowing a living soul, and dressing up each night just to get wasted. Sometimes enjoying it... sometimes not.

this song is titeld Ben Swank its about a man called Ben Swank who plays drums in a detriot rock band called the soledad brothers

I'm alone and I've been alone all along...

Its about Ben Swank, the drummer in the Soledad Brothers. Is it the Soledad Brothers or the Dirtbombs? I always get confused lol

I love the part after, "I've been set up like the innocent, I've been SWANK." The way he says swank there is so great. This is probably my favorite song by them. Reminds me, musically, of Danzig a bit.
