The Beans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Woah now tell myself to slow down
Captivated by the very thing that drew me in
Had me looking in your direction
Love your smile you always seem to flash it at a whim
Then you gave me your affection
Treasure from within comfortable in my own skin
Keep me close for your protection
Just tryna put a smile on your face
Any other life I would've done this one again
And I've got no more time to waste
And if I trust another one might end up with a son
Yeah I'm talking about a baby bean now
But I might go ahead and just trust a girl for fun
Only known her for about a week now
Together now or never til our bodies turn to mud
Into dust burning in the Arizona Sun
Together now or never til our bodies turn to mud
Into dust burning in the Arizona Sun
Watch me make mistakes I swear I only made once
I'm a fool how take me back to school now
They said we go together like the ketchup and the must
You're my glizzy girl in this busy world
The only one I know and ever really want to trust
What I'm tryna do spend time with you
Playing and you stunting like employee of the month
Might get a raise like I'm getting paid
When life lets you down then I can lift you up
Get your head right give you the best night
Right there by your side even when you had enough
Still here after all these years
Together now or never til our bodies turn to mud
Into dust burning in the Arizona Sun
Together now or never til our bodies turn to mud
Into dust burning in the Arizona Sun
The Beans's song "Sun" talks about a budding relationship that started as friendship and slowly progressed towards a more romantic connection. The lyricist starts by recalling the initial phase of their relationship where they were just mutual friends but were drawn towards each other. The singer is captivated by the qualities that the other person possesses, specifically their smile, which always seemed to flash at a whim. Eventually, the other person reciprocates the singer's feelings and shares their affection. The singer cherishes this relationship and is comfortable being themselves when they are around this person. They aim to keep this relationship forever, as they feel that being together is what makes them happiest.
Further, the song mentions how the singer is ready to take the relationship to the next level by starting a family. They talk about the possibility of having a baby bean and trusting each other for fun. The lyrics, together now or never till our bodies turn to mud, signify the singer's desire to spend every moment they can with their significant other before they grow old and eventually pass away. The song ends with the singer talking about making mistakes and learning from them and how they will always be there for their significant other.

I have held onto a cassette of this song and other Beans recordings for 40 years. I don't think it's playable any more so I really glad you put this out. Thanks

A very different version that OOTW w/Beverly Jean. I like the production on it.
