Baked Beans

I’ve been so lonesome baby, since you left me behind
Was it something I said or, maybe, was I unkind?

Why did you decide to go away?
We’ve had our differences but I wish you would stay

Time seems to go so slowly when you’re not around
You know I’m lost without you – can opener still not found

Time drifts and the world seems hazy, need to turn on a fan
The part of me you took I’ve realised was my last family-sized can

Baked beans can leave you smelling
Something less than sublime
You or beans was the ultimatum but
I choose baked beans – baked beans over …

You knew when we first started, what my culinary taste required
You got a shock when I first farted, there was much more left inside
