The Lyrics
A low-bitrate mp3 of the song can be found here.
I started to choke
Which started my old girl sighing
'Cos she didn't see
That I'd inhaled a pea, oh no
Eyes started to cry
Before them my whole life passing
Oh, such sad buffetry
To evoke tragedy
"Heim-lich!" I advised
(Waving my hands, bulging my eyes)
And I started to dread
Flirting widespread with thoughts I'd drop dead
If I untimely died
Wife start up a lawsuit revving?
Oh a lawyerly scene
Diner bankrupt will be
This sudden demise
Never did my psychic surmise
Foresaw not my death knell
Sure hope my spouse will sue her as well
'Til I finally died
Off shuffled the mortal coil-y
Oh, if I'd chosen beans
Wouldn't choke on a pea...oh no
Sad to croak legume-y...oh...
Which started my old girl sighing
'Cos she didn't see
That I'd inhaled a pea, oh no
Eyes started to cry
Before them my whole life passing
Oh, such sad buffetry
To evoke tragedy
"Heim-lich!" I advised
(Waving my hands, bulging my eyes)
And I started to dread
Flirting widespread with thoughts I'd drop dead
If I untimely died
Wife start up a lawsuit revving?
Oh a lawyerly scene
Diner bankrupt will be
This sudden demise
Never did my psychic surmise
Foresaw not my death knell
Sure hope my spouse will sue her as well
'Til I finally died
Off shuffled the mortal coil-y
Oh, if I'd chosen beans
Wouldn't choke on a pea...oh no
Sad to croak legume-y...oh...

Well done! Love the "Heim-lich..." verse. 555
I liked it, but Alex Rodriguez won't. This is after October 2004, so you should get a few fives from New England.
as mournful as the OS...mr. gibb sounded like he choking on a pea when he sang it...i tell ya...if he and stevie nicks ever do a duet, its gonna sound like a petting zoo
A poetic paean to the bean.
he he legume-y
Very funny! Just the image alone was funny! I really can't point to one thing, but "Heim-lich" was extra good.. 5's
Y'should've tried the Marvin Hamlisch Maneuver -- immediately have people start humming the theme from "The Sting" !!
Really enjoyed this one!
Talk about being pead off ! Funny !!!
Very well told story. The psychic verse was my fave.
