The Children of Bedford
Beans On Toast

Well there's a time and a place for everything

There's a time to be quiet, a time to sing

A time to get drunk, a time to stay sober

There's probably time to workout that everything will kill you

And sometimes if you laugh too much it's gonna make you cry

Are you really really happy if you're always really high?

Everything in moderation, and one thing at a time

Cause it's never been a secret what the drugs do to your mind

And just cause I've got a song about MDMA

Well that don't mean that I think you should take it everyday

I'm glad that the children of Bedford like my songs

I hope they don't interpret them wrong

And start doing it for the thrill, forgetting about the fun

And end up getting lost in a dangerous world of drugs


Well I was sixteen years old when I started smoking weed

Seven fifty for a teenth of hash from Andrew Chinnery

We'd all go down the steps at the park

That's where I learned to skin up

And then I started making lungs and pipes at lunchtime at school

Using plastic bottles and carrier bags,squares of tin foil

I used to love the way it made me think and feel and giggle

I never felt that peer pressure, I did it cause I wanted to

And soft drugs lead to hard drugs, I guess that might be true

Cause a year or so later I was on speed too

We'd go round Craigs brother's house every Friday night

Chip in for a gram and talk until the sunrise

I'll never forget the taste of my first E

It was plain and fucking simple why they call it extacy

A nimble in the bud and a tingle in the spine

The feeling of euphoria, it happened every time

But just cause I've got a song about MDMA

Well that don't mean that I think you should take it everyday


I'm glad the children of Bedford like my songs

I hope they don't interpret them wrong

And start doing it for the thrill, forgetting about the fun

And end up getting lost in a dangerous world of drugs


So then the day turned into months and the seasons start to change

And I'm squeezing to the toilet for a line of cocaine

A quick wick reaction and a blind confidence

It's addictive and expensive but I couldn't give a toss

I was wonky off the ketamine, confused by the acid

The moral of the story though is knowing when to crack it

Know what you can handle, and know when you should stop

And don't take folk singers as role models

And just cause I've got a song about MDMA

Well that don't mean that I think you should take it everyday

I'm glad the children of Bedford like my songs

I hope they don't interpret them wrong

And start doing it for the thrill, forgetting about the fun

And end up getting lost in a dangerous world of drugs


So there's a right and a wrong to everyone

There's a hard luck story, and a half decent song

There's a spliff in the ashtray, a pen in my finger

A moral to the story that I can't even remember

But sometimes if you laugh too much it's gonna make you cry

You should enjoy the roller coaster

But not get taken for a ride

Everything in moderation, and one thing at a time

But whatever you do, just don't take my advice
