Farmer Bean had dreams
Brushed of his green jeans Had the means To make the scene He knew he could play Had the day To walk away Let the town say What they would say They'll talk anyway So what the hey Leave 'em at bay To say he will pay For being on his way While the garden is left behind But Dean Bean did go Because he did know As he went to and fro All would grow The rain would show The wind might blow Nourish and toughen every row Left the scarecrow Chased the rainbow Went with the flow Knowing he'd return To reap the sew The town wondered about his mind Now the town's lips Flapped of Bean's trip Had he lost his grip Had his mind slipped Did intentions dip Take a long walk Off a short slip The town did backflips Sifting through almanacs For growing tips Straining friendships Worrying about harvest time As the townfolk All went loc And could not choke Back in their throats The sour notes and Harsh words spoke Stories evolved and Writers wrote The town went turncoat They couldn't float The suspicion boat Made up their minds Were quick to gloat That Bean had passed his prime The air thick and still As accusations spilled Missing facts filled With standard swill It was overkill At the rumor mill My how some were thrilled Feeling Power build Jockeyed in the guild All truth was killed Soon refilled With a hard to swallow Bitter pill of Hearsay opinion and lie Inquiries were sent As to where Bean went Had the farmer Gent Gotten priorities bent Would their pocket dent Survive the seeds they lent Should they raise the rents Put the poor in tents Were their margins spent This sad descent Would not relent Became a din event A powerplay argument You could smell the scent Of the swill ferment Fragments forewent Due process...consent But did they lament Even once repent As the farmer gent Returned with new implements No, they believed in him the whole time |
