I wish I were Ben Kweller
Cause he writes those cool tunes
And he uses those cool minor chords
And you love the way he croons
You love the way he plays guitar and the way he blows his harp
If I were Ben Kweller I know I could win your heart

I wish I were Ben Kweller
Then I could be with you
Cause he knows Juliana, girl And Evan Dando too
He used to be in Radish Your favorite alternative band
If I were Ben Kweller I know I could hold your hand

I'd sit outside your window
And sing the song that goes Sha Sha, Sha Doo
Cause I wanna be with you

I wish I were Ben Kweller
Cause he writes those cool tunes
And he uses those cool minor chords
And you love the way he croons
He used to be in Radish Your favorite sugar-metal band
If I were Ben Kweller I know I could hold your hand
