Skeets Benni is a real person. The car crash is fictional.
lyrics
SKEETS BENI
by John R. Smith
Skeets Beni had long bangs
They hung down so low
Eye specialist told her
You better cut ‘em or you better not drive
No, ya better not drive
Skeets Beni drove a pink MG
With a continental wheel
Made a living as a car hop
Till the day that she didn’t show up
No she didn’t show up
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
She liked to drive too fast
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Hey now, hey now
She liked to drive too fast
Every town in the whole wide world
Has a dead mans curve
Charlie found pieces of the pink MG
But they never found her
No they never found her
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
She liked to drive too fast
She liked to drive too fast
You know they never found her
Oh no they never found her
You no they never found her
No they never found her
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
She liked to drive too fast
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Did you ever hear about Skeets Beni
Hey now, hey now
She liked to drive too fast
She liked to drive too fast
She liked to drive too fast

A small bomb with devastating superb Ａｅｓｔｈｅｔｉｃｓ ャ欧ョwith a ratio of over 9000. Short, concise, beautiful, glitchy, dreamy. What else do you need? Get it. For your health. Especially the last tune which is so relaxing and heavenly. So indeed it is my
