Benny - Little Game (Lyrics)

[@nathandegroot8464]

To all y'all who are all "he's just a male Melanie" this song came out a year before dollhouse and Ben J was only 15 when he wrote this. The boy is hella...

[@ellie7601]

+Naomi DeGroot This song actually came out a couple months after Dollhouse.

[@daltonj0501]

This information seems to be a little confused. Which one is weight or are they both wrong? To Google I go!

[@daltonj0501]

+Sugarrush65 actually it came out a year after dollhouse from what youtube and Google said. Thats all i could find

[@ellie7601]

[@avabickfart2746]

I don't see how people think this is like dollhouse. Dollhouse is about a alcoholic mum, a cheating dad, and a drug addicted brother. How are gender roles like that?

[@aceofallspades5020]

+Ava Bickford yeah that's what I'm thinking

[@HelloPickaOfficial]

Dollhouseis about hiding your background. Little game is about hiding yourself.

[@avabickfart2746]

Not necessarily. Dollhouse is about hiding yourself. And Little Game is about finding yourself.

[@HelloPickaOfficial]

Ava Bickford I guess.

[@ievavicious6760]

+Ava Bickford The beat is kind of the same and it has the same creepy childish tune to it. Also, like in dollhouse it says. "Throw on your dress" In here, it says "Throw on your jersey". And the funny thing is that they both have been said at the same time, the beat also drops at the same time. Just personal observations. Though the plot of the two songs are extremely different. I'm not saying that Melanie or Benny copied one another, I'm just saying it's a coinsidence.

[@theycallmeonii-chan4900]

Gabbi Jainniney Faggot indeed came from Fagot, but they made the word Faggot for a reason, and I mean queer. And you did mention smoking means you're gay: "For three, are you calling cigarettes depressed/emo/suicidal? Cause that's what a faggot is". And if i wanted to call someone a bundle of sticks, I would just call them a bundle of sticks instead of having them misunderstand me. I have many queer friends too, and I have nothing against them, and I hate to admit to say this, but when I call someone a faggot, I say it because I go with the crowd sometimes. And I am going to judge you the same way you judged me thinking I might be straight, but you look like a 10 year old.

[@theycallmeonii-chan4900]

Gabbi Jainniney You implied I was straight here:" I don't think it's appropriate or polite for a non-queer person to use the term faggot" and you don't have to agree with how I "go with the crowd", that's my choice, and you also don't have to explain how its an offensive term, because I was trying to be offensive.

[@thequeenofsinsarchieved3466]

A song about how society is pushing people into following gender roles: Underrated and overlooked. A song about drugs and sex with no effort whatsoever and overuses autotune- Praised and wins ever award out there.

[@spikletz]

EnchantedEmpress if you meaning Melanie and Benny then your right but people don't ship them in that way. They ship them because their songs are creepy as shit.

[@KenikoB]

If the second one is Melanie than you obviously don't understand the message of many of her songs (haven't heard all of them but the ones I have were deeper than you seem to think).

[@yesiamsureienteredmynameco2103]

Well, actually sex and drugs aren't inherently bad...but I fully agree this is messed up.

[@AzenHawke]

Ok, so Im gonna go out on a limb here and say that for the second one they meant the over rated rap and hip hop songs, not Melanie Martinez. Yes, sippy cup and dollhouse are songs about sex and drugs but I don't think that's the song they were implying. Then again, I could be totally confused.

I love how people love songs about sex that don't even have a real message behind them But then songs like this go unnoticed because today's media uses gender roles to sell things so they wouldn't promote a song that calls gender roles out like this So I guess what im trying to say is:Everyone likes songs about sex and drugs but not songs that are actually meaningful like this one

"living up to gender roles.. don't you think it's funny, how they tell us how to live" This song stole my heart. Just to be sure, It is talking about transexualism, right?

[@PrinceOliverChannelandPage]

Er, what is that?

[@isabellabonura6283]

It really applies to any issue regarding gender and its roles

[@sanderp9768]

+Prince-Oliver transsexualism? Being trans means that you feel uncomfortable in the body you were born in, or rather, the sex you were born in. So, a girl is born, and she feels uncomfortable in her body as a female, and wants to be a boy. Most of the cases, it causes people like that to be looked upon negatively, they get bullied, called names and MOST often "gay" (because they dress up as the opposite sex, and for some reason that is "gay" for them), etc. so they get gender disphoria. Basically, they're depressed about their gender.

[@cynicismpiee]

"Put on false confidence just to feel alive" As a ftm trans person, I relate heavily to this. Just because I came out, cut my hair, and bought a chest binder doesn't mean I automatically love myself again. I hate myself. But I pretend to be alright and pretend to love who I am now because everyone around me assumes that's how it goes. As any other trans person would know, that's not how it works. Even after everything, a lot of people still take time to learn to love themselves. I'm not there yet, and I don't know if I ever will be. But I fake a smile and force confidence onto myself like a drug because that's the only way I ever feel alive and free. Thanks for coming to this shitshow of a TED-Talk.

[@chrysanthemelune5464]

As a genderfluid person, I relate a lot to your comment... I hope you'll soon feel better. Just remember that you don't have to put up a front of happiness. It's okay to be sad, it'll eventually pass with time but while you're struggling don't hesitate to talk to a friend if you need to. That can be really freeing to know that someone is supporting you. That's an occasion to let it all out.

Like, hush now, don't say, don't say Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes Play our little game, play our little game Bounded all thoughts and corrected common sense You're raising suicidals with your predetermined titles Like "a mess, distressed, I am unimpressed, you're excess A dress is all you'll ever be." Gender roles impose control and deceive progressive times Welcome to the land of the broken minds Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes Play our little game, play our little game [2x] We feign opulence just to get by Put on false confidence just to feel alive They can't hurt me anymore There's nothing left to break of me There's nothing left to take from me 'Cause, baby, it's easy to fake a smile When you've been doing it for a while Baby, it's easy to fake a smile When you've been doing it for a while Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes Play our little game, play our little game [2x] Hush boy, oh hush boy ------ Hush girl, oh hush girl ------- Play... Play, Play... Play... Play, Play... Play? Play our little game Play our little game Play our little game Play our little game Play our little game Won't you play with me? * *Disclaimer: I don't own ANYTHING!!!! All rights reserved and all the rest of that stuff* *

When I first heard this song (there wasn't any lyrics), I was like, "I need to see the lyrics." And it is official. This song is by far one of the best I've ever listened to.

[@SpencerKlouds]

I wish this song would blow up once again. How powerful it is to be heard once more🌈

[@weirdotalksx3893]

seriously this song throws out an important message.. kids now days need to listen to this and realize the world isn't about gender roles. I mean yes we are all raised differently, but kids now days and even older people needs to learn that you dont have to be a boy to wear this or be a girl to do this.. we are human.. we have skin.. we have minds, and we have hearts.. we can use them in the way we like to.. (: ~ sorry if this offended anyone, I was using common since and thinking about life now days (:~

Please stop comparing him to Melanie Martinez. Sure, their music is similar, but they’re two completely different people with different styles. Comparing someone to another person doesn’t make them feel good-especially when you make it seem as if they’re copying another being, when they’re not.

[@fang8015]

I don’t compare them I’m just saying their both amazing! And yes I do agree.

I’m a trans guy. The second I started presenting as a boy, I was expected to be strong and confident. I don’t know how they’d all expect me to be confident when I’m not comfortable at all in my body. I cant be feminine at all, even when I feel like it. I can no longer cry in front of people without being called a wimp.

[@bazdog4464]

I'm also a trans guy and I experience simular things. it feels like I can't even like things that don't include sports or anything like that without being questioned and asked if I'm sure I'm a guy

[@violettepastel7198]

Your comment shows that traditional gender roles doesn’t only affect men and women equally but also trans people and cis people equally wherever they identify as male or female

[@taliathehuman4641]

My dad grounded me for listening to this. He says it's "Untrue sh*t about genders and suicide for snowflakes" but I disagree with him. He believes there's boy girl and nothing more. No trans no non binary no they and no it. He or she is all my family believes in. But imma stand by people who despise gender roles and labels and keep listening to this no matter what my dad says.

[@Niixaltro]

I hope your dad stops being close minded some day and realizes that those people exist in the world.

the worst part about gender roles is how girls can wear "men's clothes" and no one seems to care, but a guy wears "girly things" and you'll never hear the end of it!!! If a girl can be a tomboy a guy can be "girly"

[@foolofhearts4553]

I did come here from a video about Mangle, but not because I think it fits 'em. I came here because I related to the part of the song used in it, so I wanted to hear the rest. And, I fully relate to it. I'm female in real life, but I want to be a boy, but society looks down on people like me. We're forced to be in these roles, but we wanna break out, and not act how our genders are seen. Be who we truly are inside.

[@muffy9271]

I remember listening to this a lot when I was younger Now I'm basically an adult for two years Accepting being comfortable with being born female, yet I still need to find myself whilst realising how gender roles as a whole are absolute bullcrap which resulted in me wearing whatever the hell I want, not caring if it's for men or women Still unsure if the fact that my father attempted to raise me male when I was a toddler while later being raised a girl by my mother who still allowed me to do what i wanted played a part in this development

[@tvm8997]

This hits me close to home. I’m transgender FtM and I’ve always hated gender roles. In gym, although teachers never imply for it, girls always stay on one side in groups and boys on the other. Me and my other transgender friend were in the middle. The only two of us. The weirdos. It pains me how girls wearing oversized hoodies and messy hair with no makeup is “unladylike” and guys wearing dresses, pretty hair, and makeup is “gay”. Society, let us live our lives in peace.

[@andisadoily1935]

[@nakjskjkdndkd]

I think the chorus' meaning is like whenever people try to stick up for their "roles" they're always hushed and brainwashed into gender roles, hence the "hush boy/girl, throw on a Jersey/just bat your eyes"

People don't look for song that have deep meanings, they usually look for songs that sounds nice and have nice rhythm. People like trap music and nothing's wrong with that. People like ballads and nothing's wrong with that. Y'all need to get the fact that not everyone's gonna like the same thing ingrained in your shriveling brains. I'm just here because this song sound nice.
