The Humble Bean
An alchemist of worldwide fame
Would wonder how the humble bean
Came to conquer woman kind
Weak of knee, and trembling hands
With sweating palms, This humble bean brings all in line
Of those that taste this humble bean
Sell their first born, betray a friend
Accept a bribe or tell a monstrous lie
Just to taste the pleasures of this humble bean
So what’s all the fuss about this bean
It’s the delights of chocolate don't you see
That cursed humble cocoa bean
