Ben Kweller(born June 16, 1981) is an American rockmusician and former lead singer of the 1990s band Radish, which was compared to Nirvanain Rolling Stone Magazine. The band grew in popularity in the Dallas, Texas music scene from its formation in 1993. However, the band was dismissed by critics as little more than an imitation of Nirvana with the novelty of an extremely young lead vocal-guitarist (Kweller was in his teens for the entire existence of the band). Nonetheless, Kweller and his two bandmates, bassist Bryan Blur and drummer John Kent, were signed to a major record label in 1995 by Mercury Records. Regardless of a much-hyped beginning, which included appearances on Conan O'Brien and David Letterman, Radish failed to strike big success with either its first record Dizzy or its sophomore effort Restraining Bolt.

Lizzy Lyrics
Ben Kweller
Sign me up, I volunteer
Votes are in for lifeguard of the year
Her feline past lives are plain to see
Their similarities are shown in this life again
Like mama said, dontcha let it go to your head
When ya know youre being fed
Im so proud to know you
Lizzy, Ill write, Ill sing
Telegraph, telegram
Telephone, tellin you
Ill be home soon
Dienu
We will wake when kitty licks
And in the morn, work takes her to maine
Dressed and out the door by six
Tomorrow is the first time liz cant board my plane
Like mama said, dontcha let it go to your head
When ya know your book is read
Im so proud to know you
Anna will take me to the port
As liz drives up i-95
Me and my darlin keep love alive
Even on texas time
Like mama said, dontcha let it go to your head
When your town is painted red
Im so proud to know you
Lizzy, Ill write, Ill sing
Telegraph, telegram
Telephone, tellin you
Ill be home soon
Dienu
