You can catch him headlining at Terminal 5
here in New York on October 25th.
Performing his new single -
It's one of my jams of the week, man. I love this song -
"Jesus in L.A.," please welcome Alec Benjamin.
Well, I shook hands with the devil down on the south side
And he bought us both a drink
With a pad and a pencil, sat by his side
I said, Tell me what you think
I've been looking for my savior, looking for my truth
I even asked my shrink
He brought me down to his level
Said, Son, you're not special
You won't find him where you think
You won't find him down on Sunset
Or at a party in the Hills
At the bottom of the bottle
Or when you're tripping on some pills
When they sold you the dream, you were just 16
Packed a bag and ran away
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
Took a sip of his whiskey, said, Now that you're with me
Well, I think that you should stay
Yeah, I know you've been busy searching through the city
So let me share the way
I know I'm not your savior, know I'm not your truth
But I think we could be friends
He said, Come down to my level, hang out with the devil
Let me tell you, in the end
You won't find him down on Sunset
Or at a party in the Hills
At the bottom of the bottle
Or when you're tripping on some pills
When they sold you the dream, you were just 16
Packed a bag and ran away
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
And that is when I knew that it was time to go home
And that is when I realized that I was alone
And all the vibrant colors from the lights fade away
And I don't care what they say
You won't find him down on Sunset
Or at a party in the Hills
At the bottom of the bottle
Or when you're tripping on some pills
When they sold you the dream, you were just 16
Packed a bag and ran away
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
I won't find him down on Sunset
Or at a party in the Hills
At the bottom of the bottle
Or when I'm tripping on some pills
When they sold me the dream, I was just 16
Packed my bag and ran away
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA
Very nervous.
Alec Benjamin!
"Jesus in L.A." is out now!
