Shel Silverstein - Beans Taste Fine
Work rating: Low

Now a friend of mine, way back in Chicago
You know, he finally made his pile.
Well he got himself a mansion on Butler and Sheff
An` he was livin` in the latest style;
But I run into him, he was eatin` in a greasy spoon
While parkled in front was his big limousine.
I said, "Buddy, you`ve got so much money
How come youre in here, eatin` beans?"
An` he said 
"After you`ve been havin` steak for a long time,
Beans, beans taste fine.
An` after you`ve been drinkin` champagne and brandy
You gonna settle for wine."
He said "The world is funny, and people are strange,
And man is a creature of constant change, and
After you`ve been havin` steak for a long time
Beans, beans taste fine." 
Now, you know I ran into another friend of mine
In a rowdy old Clark Street Bar.
I said, "Friend, is it true what I heard about you?
I heard you married a beautiful 18-year-old shapely movie star,
Yet here you sit, tryin` to make out with some barfly
Who`s too old and ugly to be true."
He said, "Shelley, you`re still a very young man
So sit down. I`ll explain it all to you.
He said 
"After you`ve been havin` steak for a long time
Beans, beans taste fine.
An` after you`ve been drinkin` champagne and Chivas Regal
You gonna settle for Thunderbird wine."
He said "The world is funny, and people are strange,
And man is a creature of constant change, and
After you`ve been havin` steak for a long time
Beans, beans taste fine."
