This song title is a lunch menu typo.

Today's lunch menu was typed out, reproduced, and distributed.
One of the diners protested,
"What is 'Rock of Beans' ?"
The waitperson explained, "It's a typo. It's supposed to say
'Crock of Beans.' "

[Me, I drove to MacDonald's for lunch.
I cannot report on the actual crock of beans, therefore.]

As a song challenge, this typo
is simply too good to let pass by.

To the tune of 'Rock of Ages'

Rock of beans cooked up for me,
Let me gorge myself on thee.
With a burger and glass of wine,
Food to slips right down real fine.
Rock of beans cooked up for me,
Let me gorge myself on thee.
Though they had miswritten it,
It was just a crock of...... beans.

One month later, the kitchen tries again with the lunch menu.

This time it came out

"Cockc of Beans."

The menu printers keep outdoing themselves here.
Today and tomorrow, for instance.

Today's fish dinner was
FIRED FISH with
FRENCH FIRED POTATOES.

Tomorrow's breakfast features

ORK SAUSAGE

"Pissoles and chips please"

"?????"

"That's what it says on the menu, pissoles and chips."

"It's a typo - should be an 'R'"

"OK, arsoles and chips please"
