The Bean Enchilada Song
Lyrics by Cory Smith, music by Rupert Holmes (Escape, The Pina Colada Song)
I was tired of my diet,
I was tired of my diet,
wanted more food on my plate
wanted more food on my plate
Even after one whole week,
Even after one whole week,
I hadn't lost any weight
I hadn't lost any weight
So while I sat there starving,
So while I sat there starving,
I started surfing the web
I started surfing the web
An ad popped up from the corner,
An ad popped up from the corner,
you won't believe what it said
you won't believe what it said
"If you like bean enchiladas,
"If you like bean enchiladas,
and gettin' refills of pop
and gettin' refills of pop
If you hate tiny portions,
If you hate tiny portions,
if you don't like to stop
if you don't like to stop
If you like hangin' round til midnight,
If you like hangin' round til midnight,
stuffing food in your snout
stuffing food in your snout
Here's the restaurant you´ve looked for,
Here's the restaurant you´ve looked for,
come on in and pig out"
come on in and pig out"
I didn't think about my diet,
I didn't think about my diet,
I know that sounds kind of sad
I know that sounds kind of sad
But when I read through their menu,
But when I read through their menu,
Well I was tempted really, really bad
Well I was tempted really, really bad
So I went to the restaurant,
So I went to the restaurant,
I got a table in front
I got a table in front
And when they asked what I wanted,
And when they asked what I wanted,
I said, "I'm going to be blunt"
I said, "I'm going to be blunt"
"I want some bean enchiladas,
"I want some bean enchiladas,
I want free refills of pop
I want free refills of pop
I despise tiny portions,
I despise tiny portions,
and I don't like to stop
and I don't like to stop
I'll probably hang around til midnight,
I'll probably hang around til midnight,
stuffing food in my snout
stuffing food in my snout
You're the restaurant I´ve dreamed of,
You're the restaurant I´ve dreamed of,
and I plan to pig out"
and I plan to pig out"
Just then a new patron walked in,
Just then a new patron walked in,
I heard the door slam shut
I heard the door slam shut
I knew his chins in an instant,
I knew his chins in an instant,
I knew the curve of his gut
I knew the curve of his gut
It was my friend ____ ____, ← insert audience member's name
It was my friend ____ ____, ← insert audience member's name
and he said, "Ah, it´s you"
and he said, "Ah, it´s you"
And we laughed for a moment,
And we laughed for a moment,
and I said, "I never knew"
and I said, "I never knew"
"That you liked bean enchiladas,
"That you liked bean enchiladas,
and drinking gallons of pop
and drinking gallons of pop
That you hate tiny portions,
That you hate tiny portions,
That you don't like to stop
That you don't like to stop
If you can hang around til midnight,
If you can hang around til midnight,
stuffing food in your snout
stuffing food in your snout
I've got room at my table,
I've got room at my table,
Sit on down, let's pig out"
Sit on down, let's pig out"
"If you like bean enchiladas,
"If you like bean enchiladas,
and getting refills of pop
and getting refills of pop
If you hate tiny portions,
If you hate tiny portions,
if you don't like to stop
if you don't like to stop
If you like hangin' round til midnight,
If you like hangin' round til midnight,
stuffing food in your snout
stuffing food in your snout
Here's the restaurant you´ve looked for,
Here's the restaurant you´ve looked for,
come on in and pig out"
come on in and pig out"
