Beans and Fries

[No Introl] [Verse 1] They asked me how I knew My true love was true I of course replied "Something deep inside Cannot be denied... it’s beans and fries." [Verse 2] They said, "Someday you'll find All who eat are blind When your plate is cold You will be too old To seek out the gold... of beans and fries." [Verse 3] They smile and say I’m wrong That I’ve stayed too long In this greasy dream But they haven't seen The saucy, salty gleam... of beans and fries. [Instrumental break] [Bridge] I ate them all and then I loudly laughed To think they could doubt my taste Yet today, my hunger is a flame That I simply cannot waste. [Verse 4] Now laughing friends deride The salt I cannot hide So I smile and say "On this dinner tray The steam gets in my eyes... From beans... and fries." [Outro] So let the critics talk Let the neighbors balk And the world go by I’ll just sit and sigh... Over beans... And... Fries.
