Lyrics

"Thank You, Ben Hilton"
[by Adam Victor Lattimore]

Benjamin J. Hilton
In lieu of a 'Thank You' card
I thought I'd record my gratitude
In the form of Word-Hop

Thank You, Ben Hilton
For the Kroger gift card

For the benefit of any stranger
That might happen across this recording
I'm going to explain the scenario
Starting from day one

Mr. Hilton was hired
Day one was training day
Ben was the Ethan Hawke
To my Denzel Washington

Soon I learned
Fan of music he was
Slayer and such
In time, friends we became

Thank You, Ben Hilton
For the Kroger gift card

Enter modern times
Operation secret santa
Out of the hat, my name came
Pondered on the present, he did

Trusted his instincts
Food is delicious
Perhaps grocery, he thought
That will feed again and again

That brings us to now
But now was then
Then that was past
Now I'm confused

Thank You, Ben Hilton
For the Kroger gift card

Oh, while I have you here
Reminder to return my C.D.
Early Man
Closing In

Picture the future
5 years from now
2013
This will be a laugh and a half

Digging this now
Perhaps MP3
Monthly free
You know
