| The Ben at the end of the song is in reference to the song Ben by Michael Jackson for the movie of the same name. In the movie, a young boy befriends the rat Ben, but then the rat turns evil and recruits other rats to attack people. | |

| actually, i think it refers to Ben the rat in the story Ratman's Notebooks, which became a movie in the 70s called Willard, now redone as a new movie more recently. The man befriends Ben and Socrates, 2 rats, and he gets payback from all the people that treated him bad with his legion of rats that will do what he says. | |

| the "ben" lyrics are referencing Michael Jackson's song "Ben" which references the "Williard" movie, so technically you're both right on that one :) | |

| Read the lyrics synically (sarcastically), then they'll make sense... | |
