00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.971
You can catch him 
headlining at Terminal 5

00:00:02.971 --> 00:00:05.319
here in New York
on October 25th.

00:00:05.319 --> 00:00:06.943
Performing
his new single -

00:00:06.943 --> 00:00:09.609
It's one of my jams
of the week, man. I love this song -

00:00:09.609 --> 00:00:14.130
"Jesus in L.A.,"
please welcome Alec Benjamin.

00:00:14.847 --> 00:00:18.050
Well, I shook hands with the devil
down on the south side

00:00:18.050 --> 00:00:20.531
And he bought us both
a drink

00:00:20.531 --> 00:00:23.096
With a pad and a pencil,
sat by his side

00:00:23.096 --> 00:00:25.618
I said, Tell me
what you think

00:00:25.628 --> 00:00:28.353
I've been looking for my
savior, looking for my truth

00:00:28.353 --> 00:00:30.163
I even asked my shrink

00:00:30.163 --> 00:00:31.997
He brought me down
to his level

00:00:31.997 --> 00:00:33.299
Said, Son,
you're not special

00:00:33.299 --> 00:00:35.234
You won't
find him where you think

00:00:35.234 --> 00:00:37.703
You won't find him
down on Sunset

00:00:37.703 --> 00:00:40.372
Or at a party in the Hills

00:00:40.372 --> 00:00:42.709
At the bottom of the bottle

00:00:42.709 --> 00:00:45.969
Or when you're tripping
on some pills

00:00:46.078 --> 00:00:48.648
When they sold you the dream,
you were just 16

00:00:48.648 --> 00:00:50.750
Packed a bag and ran away

00:00:50.750 --> 00:00:53.186
And it's a crying shame
you came all this way

00:00:53.186 --> 00:00:55.855
'Cause you won't
find Jesus in LA

00:00:55.855 --> 00:00:58.257
And it's a crying shame
you came all this way

00:00:58.257 --> 00:01:01.481
'Cause you won't
find Jesus in LA

00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.152
Took a sip of his whiskey,
said, Now that you're with me

00:01:14.152 --> 00:01:16.683
Well, I think
that you should stay

00:01:16.709 --> 00:01:19.279
Yeah, I know you've been busy
searching through the city

00:01:19.279 --> 00:01:22.081
So let me share the way

00:01:22.081 --> 00:01:24.417
I know I'm not your savior,
know I'm not your truth

00:01:24.417 --> 00:01:26.252
But I think
we could be friends

00:01:26.252 --> 00:01:29.455
He said, Come down to my
level, hang out with the devil

00:01:29.455 --> 00:01:31.457
Let me tell you, in the end

00:01:31.457 --> 00:01:33.859
You won't find him
down on Sunset

00:01:33.859 --> 00:01:36.528
Or at a party in the Hills

00:01:36.528 --> 00:01:38.898
At the bottom of the bottle

00:01:38.902 --> 00:01:42.148
Or when you're tripping
on some pills

00:01:42.234 --> 00:01:44.804
When they sold you the dream,
you were just 16

00:01:44.804 --> 00:01:46.906
Packed a bag and ran away

00:01:46.906 --> 00:01:49.322
And it's a crying shame
you came all this way

00:01:49.322 --> 00:01:52.001
'Cause you won't
find Jesus in LA

00:01:52.011 --> 00:01:54.417
And it's a crying shame
you came all this way

00:01:54.417 --> 00:01:58.135
'Cause you won't
find Jesus in LA

00:01:59.074 --> 00:02:04.223
And that is when I knew
that it was time to go home

00:02:04.223 --> 00:02:09.228
And that is when I realized
that I was alone

00:02:09.228 --> 00:02:13.532
And all the vibrant colors
from the lights fade away

00:02:13.532 --> 00:02:17.255
And I don't care
what they say

00:02:17.336 --> 00:02:19.739
You won't find him
down on Sunset

00:02:19.739 --> 00:02:22.439
Or at a party in the Hills

00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:24.779
At the bottom of the bottle

00:02:24.779 --> 00:02:28.048
Or when you're tripping
on some pills

00:02:28.180 --> 00:02:30.750
When they sold you the dream,
you were just 16

00:02:30.750 --> 00:02:32.918
Packed a bag and ran away

00:02:32.918 --> 00:02:35.221
And it's a crying shame
you came all this way

00:02:35.221 --> 00:02:37.790
'Cause you won't
find Jesus in LA

00:02:37.790 --> 00:02:40.159
I won't find him
down on Sunset

00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:42.961
Or at a party in the Hills

00:02:42.995 --> 00:02:45.316
At the bottom of the bottle

00:02:45.316 --> 00:02:48.607
Or when I'm tripping
on some pills

00:02:48.700 --> 00:02:51.137
When they sold me the dream,
I was just 16

00:02:51.137 --> 00:02:53.339
Packed my bag and ran away

00:02:53.339 --> 00:02:55.741
And it's a crying shame
I came all this way

00:02:55.741 --> 00:02:58.511
'Cause I won't
find Jesus in LA

00:02:58.511 --> 00:03:00.797
And it's a crying shame
I came all this way

00:03:00.813 --> 00:03:04.025
'Cause I won't
find Jesus in LA

00:03:09.295 --> 00:03:10.545
Very nervous.

00:03:10.944 --> 00:03:13.210
Alec Benjamin!

00:03:14.396 --> 00:03:17.327
"Jesus in L.A." is out now!
