We had spaghetti for supper.Tomato & basil sauce. That's a hint. Texas
garlic toast with cheese too. And meatballs made with beef, veal and pork. And
now a burp that has a garlic flavor to it. Beer too. No wine. Grated cheese was
tossed in & a small salad. No farts yet...but I'm speaking for myself. I
didn't eat alone. But since supper, we've departed, so I don't know if someone
else has farted. I did that rhyme for you. Do you enjoy beans for supper. Did
you ever hear this: beans, beans the musical food, the more you eat the more
you tune. I think I have heard someone say that once and I think I may have
said that phrase well over a thousand times during my life, but that's a guess.
I am now wondering if at the moment of my death it will be revealed to me the
correct amount of times I uttered that phrase. It's been said that before one
dies, their life flashes before them. I just wonder if that flash includes
details such as dates and times, banalities, innuendos, and passing fancies. Or
does this time come flashing by in chunks....say for example, incrementally in
chunks of fives years at a time. That wouldn't be fair. Especially when you
take into consideration the first seven years of your life, when there's so
much new stuff going on. (at this point you may insert things other than going
from tit to bottle, teething, potty training, first steps and baby goes boom
& don't touch) Personally, before I go anywhere after death, I want my
flash to include all. I want to savor all the moments I forgot about during my
full life. (please insert here a moment you personally wish to recall)
(and now, petition your god) (I don't think I could be of any assistance to you
while you're at your moment of death) And I wonder if all this shit happens
automatically for all, or if I have to start asking my god to make sure it
happens for you too.

Well if i have every fart flash before my eyes or ears it might take awhile for me to pass a little pun I spun for fun.
The way we were taught it: beans, beans the musical fruit, the more you eat the more you toot. Of course that makes no sense, as beans are certainly not “fruit.” But maybe somebody wanted something to rhyme with “toot”???
Gosh Centria….I now wonder if now I will pay more attention when my life flashes before me to listen better to the first time I heard the phrase about the beans….will I then be embarrassed a thousand times over because I heard it incorrectly the first time….or, will ignorance simply be ignored. Toot & fruit makes some sense now that you mention it. Tooty fruity still seems silly….although cute.
and yes BB …now I'm thinking farts would flash for almost an eternity.
Funny! I remember the song using “toot” as well. And Carla would say, “That's a real cheek flapper.” (Hope you don't mind me quoting you Carla.) All in all, I think we should smile and laugh with every fart. That will make life better until the end because there will be a whole lotta laughing; then when whatever happens, it happens.
Let us all die laughing and pooting. Yes, there is another version: we called em poots when I was little.
What if all those poots, from SBDs to cheek flappers, flashing before us at the hours of our death(s) was what propelled us to heaven?
Just yesterday, I heard this song on the radio, and reminded me of another use of beans.
:)
SEVEN comments, and I was sure somebody would just put the whole rhyme out there… *sigh*
OK, it's like this:
Beans, beans the musical fruit
The more you eat, the more you toot.
The more you toot, the better you feel,
So let's have beans at EVERY meal!
