Bebo and Britney

I just received my copy of the new Bebo Norman cd in the mail last week and i've been listening to it all weekend. I've been a fan of Bebo's since college, i love his honest music and he's really good live. I've met him a few times and he's a very sincere and genuine person, so for me to complain about his music is unusual.





On his latest album there is a track titled Britney. The first few times i heard it i didn't really like it, i guess i don't like songs about specific people, they just don't leave much room for the listener to have original interpretations. Also, i have a hard time separating the name "Britney" from Britney Spears, someone who i'd rather not think about all that often. I was talking to Kassie about the track yesterday and was complaining about how this Britney song was track 4, why would Bebo feature such a lame track, usually tracks 3/4 are your features, your singles.





Well come to find out this morning, the song really is about Britney Spears. I can't believe Bebo would write a song about Britney Spears, actually include it on an album with only 10 tracks, and then make it his single. i don't get it. doesn't anyone else care?





Lyrics:

Britney im sorry for the lies we told

we took you into our arms and then left you cold

britney im sorry for this cruel cruel world

we sell the beauty but destroy the girl

britney im sorry for your broken heart

we stood aside and watched you fall apart

im sorry we told you fame would fill you up

and money moves the man so drink the cup

i know love goes around the world we know

and you never see it coming back

you never see it coming back

i know love goes around the world we know

and you never see it coming back

but i can see it coming back for you

yes coming back for you

britney im sorry for the stones we throw

we tear you down just so we can watch the show

britney im sorry for the words we say

we point the finger as you fall from grace

yeah britney i do believe that love has come

here for the broken

here for the ones like us

i know love goes around the world we know

and you never see it coming back you never see it coming back

and i know love goes around the world we know

and you never see it coming back but i can see it coming back

i know love goes around the world we know

and you never see it coming back you never see it coming back

i can see it coming back for you its coming back for you... yeah
