From the recording Journeys Through Obscurity
Lyrics
Beans & Biscuits
Beans & Biscuits
She brings me beans and biscuits
Feeds me beans & biscuits ‘til I’m gray
Burnt on the outside. Raw on the inside.
Beans & Biscuits every goddamn day
I’ve seen you no-good sinners with your fine pork chop dinners
Mac & Cheese a-settin’ on the side
I could waste my wishes on a lot of tasty dishes
But there’s just one meal I never could abide.
Beans & Biscuits
No more beans and biscuits
Beans and biscuits delivered to my grave
Gonna be a-killin’ if you don’t commence to grillin’
Beans and biscuits ain’t all a man’ll crave
I’ve seen you no-good fatties with your fine hamburger patties
You savor every gooey greasy bite
All you citizens cramming
Your greedy gob-holes with poached salmon
And a different fruity salad every night.
All these shingles and legumes
Gonna drag me to my doom
Been years since I even saw my appetite
I cannot tolerate any more carbohydrate
This meal ain’t going down without a fight
Beans & Biscuits
She brings me beans and biscuits
Feeds me beans & biscuits until I’m pale
Burnt on the outside. Raw on the inside.
Three times a day without fail
I wonder what they’re serving in the jail.
