Shoes & socks protect soles from rocks And thick coats defend your skin & hide you What to do when there's holes in you? You're a beanbag with no beans inside you Bored, thin, low, on, beans, beans He tore his seams on his broken dreams Now he lies around too flat to serve He drags his feet. He feels incomplete And bad dogs grind down his last good nerve He's bored, thin, low, on, beans And he would have stayed that way, too With no way to turn back the tide Ostensibly not so bad, but in need of a spark inside But another came along And though it's difficult to explain She poured herself into him like rain For every raindrop, there was a bean For every stay outside, there was a bean An electric nest of worker bees Boiling under his skin They pop like bombs in a Tupperware bowl And are multiplied each by ten Swelling his quiddity up until He feels like his old beanbag self again Stuffed Full Of Beans
