Fun. - Benson Hedges Lyrics
Holy ghosts
When do you come out to play?
'Cause if the Lord is gonna find me
He'd better start looking today
I spent the weekend setting traps in the road
I should have been cutting out my eyelids
You'll never guess what baby did when she got home
Na na na na
Now at least the birds are singing to me
But what they're trying to say
I don't know
(You're beautiful)
(For all your big mistakes)
I think they come from the cold
(You stayed the same)
To the city that don't snow
So I drove until we both broke down
I was stranded in a border town
Believing the motel TV would bring me to safety
But between MTV and Mr. O'Reilly
I've come to find, that I can't be defined
So I turned it off, now convinced I would cross
Took one last look at the gold
As it shattered on a mountaintop
Now I believe the sun, it's like a symphony
But what it's trying to play
I don't know
(You're beautiful)
I think it's come from the cold
(For all your big mistakes)
I think it's come from the cold
(You stayed the same)
To the city that don't snow
C'mon Holy ghosts
When do you come out to play?
'Cause if the Lord is gonna find me
He'd better start looking today
So I can rise with the river
We all float before we sink
So pray for satellites
Pray for courtesy
And pray that it can climb mountains to me
I say goodbye to the canyon
I will set sail to the streets
Where I don't care to be forgiven
I want to be forgotten
I don't care to be forgiven
When Lord I only want to be forgotten
Now I receive a call from my family
And what they started to say
Brought me home
(You're beautiful)
They think I'm beautiful
(For all your big mistakes)
They think I'm beautiful
(You're beautiful)
For all my big mistakes

Fun. Benson Hedges Comments
Thought this would be the only song from Aim and Ignite that I wouldn't like but eventually forced my self to listen to it because all the other songs in the album were bangers. Glad I did because now I'm obsessed with it
I like this very nice tune. Found this through benson and hedges article On Wikipedia.
Omg im so sad he said he wants to be forgotten😩😧
Did he say nom nom nom?lol

June 26th, 2019!!
Woah, this album is almost 10 years old. We need a reupload, this playlist is a lil fuzzy.
although i can speak english a little, when listen this song speaking a word.
"AMAZING"
This shit is cool
" I dont care yo be forgiven, when I only wanna be forgotten!!"
Fucking awesome lyrics and music!
2018 Anyone?
th@ is sew last y34r
Na, 2019
I love this album, man... so many emotions..
Freddie Mercury? Is that you?
nah he deead
Nah Freddie Mercury had more charisma than this guy
한국인 있나요?
such a strange but amazing song
This is one of the highlights of an incredible album. And yes, they are CLEARLY influenced by Queen. Not sure why that's an argument. This song, Be Calm, Barlights, even Some Nights, all sound like they were composed by people who listened to a lot of Queen, and yay for them! Queen's a great band and so is fun.
Now my favorite part happens to be the bridge at 2:20, when the texture changes and it's like clouds opened up or something. Definitely some great musical choices. That little piano riff in the background sounds like something Randy Newman would have written but not as campy. 😝

FIRST FUN. SONG EVER
I love this song, along with Barlights and Be Calm.
And the gambler!
My favorites are: be calm, all alone, the gambler, and stars
Freddie would love this :)
Freddie would like most of fun. I think.
whose Freddie
+Kagome Dreamer Freddy Mercury.
who cares about him fun. music are way more unique and diverse
This is my happy song! ♥
For Dota this is best :DD
More people need to hear this!
yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaa giirrrrrlllll
Can anyone explain the "possible" (though pretty clear) reference to Benson & Hedges cigarettes?
+Cole Keller Nate smoked this cigarettes
Warning headphone users... I jumped 3 feet off the couch. Lol!!
All I know is that this is the first song I've ever heard that uses the word "beautiful" to mean I use it for. It isn't a physical characteristic, but something that describes a person's spirit.
aww so true that's like my fave part, besides their great voices
2.05 <3 <3
Fun. is Fun of this generation!
Someone, please, I don't really get this song. Can you tell me, what is it about? However, I love this sooo much and fun. are my addiction.
This song is awesome, one of the best roadtrip songs ever. 1:17 = AWESOME.
Fun. Is def the Queen of this generation. Such a talented group of musicians.
i love this song so much !!! :D
also, for everyone freaking that people discovered them after We Are Young, unless you listened to Nate's first band, The Format (a local Arizona band) and heard that he was forming fun. after the Format broke up in 2008, you can't bash others for liking them after here a good song.
Listening to Nate just takes me back to the days of the Format, now that was an amazing group to hear live.
The format performed this song
does anybody in here knows what the whole "holy ghost, when do you come out to play..." is about?
farah wut yeah, it’s the only reason I don’t like this song, in the Bible it talks about the Holy Ghost being responsible for spreading the word of God, he’s saying that if God wants him to become a Christian, he better start trying to convert him now
I love when Nate's lyrics get sacrilegious >:D religion is for bums!
um no...
Lol im not one of those people who does # everything i just did it as a joke.
Is there a way to love instead of like??? #lovestruck
brillliant sonnngg im a right fan of FUN. <3
What's so wrong with IcoNexcalib3R's comment? Didn't he say hipsters may be mad if elwoono discovered fun. by "We are Young"?
...why?
This whole album is like a musical. Some Nights is just too pop for me. I love the album but Aim & Ignite is just so unique!
it's one of my favorite bands
I discovered them from my friend, and damn, it's my favorite band now.
I like slamming my face against the keyboard too
Haha guys!!! I haved loved fun forever!!!! I don't care if u just discovered them! Join the party! At least now that people have heard of them I won't be made fun of for liking them! fun. forever!!! :) :) :)
Oh, that's exactly what i think! :') I mean, we like Fun, Fun are awesome, why the hell should we care about how everyone got to know them? :)
FRED MERCURY IS HELPING HIM!!!!!
hahaha bensonHedges the same name like my favorite cigarette´s ^^
MTV got nothin' on Fun.
repeat ; p
Oh, i understand you. I just hate myself for not discovering them before! (i start listening to them just some months ago..) DD:
They're just awesome :3
ROLF ER REN
He never said bigger than queen you fucking idiot, he just said bigger. As in bigger than they are now, not bigger than queen...
this song is so fucking amazing!!
I'm singing oh whoa oh nom nom
Whoa nom nom nom whoa!
It's all well and good to have "hipster" music tastes, but don't come to to youtube ranting about how people who learned about them recently makes them "less" than you. I've been listening to Fun. since early 2010 and I don't ever think that that makes me "more of a fan." Just be happy people enjoy the same music that you do.
look i know Queen was an amazing band, but we are a new generation and it"s kind of alright for us to like new music and bands. we all have different tastes in music. okay.
I discovered Fun. on Tap Tap Revenge :3
Happy as fudge, lol
Haha lol that always happens to me (: <3 xxXxx I love Fun. they're my FAVOURITE band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Freddy Mercury was trained from a youngster and the best schools abroad!
this band FUN is going far, give them a chance! and time! They're doing more than you are!
Stop comparing negatively and stop complaining!
Had my volume pretty high, the start of this song gave me a fucking heart attack lol
Yess. But your wrong, their not the best on earth... Fun is the best in the whole universe!!! :D
"WARNING" watch out there's some serious shit happening below!
Fun is like Queen in the way that Lady Gaga is like Madonna and Maroon5 is like MJ. people are in capable of separating things from eachother and therefore MUST associate them with someone else.
Being inspired by someone, or being similar to someone, doesn't make them the same thing. they can never be "exactly the same" simply by definition of the words.
Someone please clarify how Fun. is "exactly like Queen." Fun. is awesome and they are one of my favorites right now, but I just don't get how everyone is making this connection...
Lots of people have discovered Fun. from We Are Young. I think the trio would be glad that someone likes their music.
Speaking of "not old enough to know queen" I stopped Typing Like This When I Was 10 Years Old.
For the record, I'm 16 and I LOVE queen, my mother raised me up with music like that playing in the background. Stop judging others and start judging your own faults, maybe then you can grow up.
I don't think so. I just heard it this year when my best friend played "All The Pretty Girls" in her car...
no my parents are waching me because they caught me saying the f bomb in a text
calm your tits bro!
you got some problems you fricker and no there not just like queen there why better (not saying i hate queen i like queen)but i like fun. waaaayyyyyayayy more
I LOVE YOU NATE RUESS
So your an idiot? You just labeled a whole bunch of different things.
Why would you speak for fun.? You've no idea weather or not they would be pissed or not.
Not trying to pick fights but I just wanted to say something about the auto-tune. I know a lot of people didn't like it but I do. It wasn't because he needed to fix his voice in anyway because he is obviously really really good. I though it was creative and really added to the song. =)
these dudes rock!!!!!!!!!!1
This song really reminds me of Queen...
why cant everything be this much FUN
i like fun my favourite band at the moment but queen is queen not fun
is it a hobby of yours to just use caps whenever
That's exactly what think about them. Except that I lost some admiration after that autotune segment in some nights.
Why would they be pissed they have more fans than ever?
Idk I ain't a hipster :/
The opening of this actually made me chuckle out of pure joy at its wonderfulness.
It's don't not can't . I am a gigantic Queen fan. I also love ELO it's nice to see bands still use vocal harmonies like fun..
Queen reborn!!
This song reminds me of "Can't Stop Me Now", is the singer channeling Mr.Fahrenheit?
Well maybe they wouldn't be pissed, but they would be if you discovered fun. from 'We are young'
Hipsters would be pissed at you, but it's cool though :D
My favorite song by them
better late than never?
Let's just not be obsessed with labels and call this music what it is. 'Genius.'
love the intro and the song's just great <3
