Bennett Scott (12 October 1871 – 1 June 1930) was an English writer of music hall songs.
Born in London, of Jewish background, he started working in warehouses, but in 1894 advertised his services as a provider of "good songs and catchy melodies... at a guinea a time."
Scott died in 1930, aged 68. His brother, Maurice Scott, also worked as a songwriter.
