Wasabi Peas

Published by MsQ at 4:57 pm under QMusements, Relationships

If something called the Chicken Noodle Soup dance could make it big, I thought I’d try a love song involving Wasabi Peas…a bit of a spinoff of the “Two Peas In A Pod” idea…

Peas In A Can, Not In the Pod

Wasabi Peas
by Ms. Q

Wasabi Peas -huh!
Wasabi Peas -hey!

My love and me
We be like Wasabi Peas
Not peas in a pod,
So alike, too trite
Just the same,
Green and plain.

Wrap a pea in Wasabi
and wuddya get?
Something to clear your sinuses,
Oh, you bet!

We got a little bit o' kick

My love and me,
We be like Wasabi Peas
We’re not peas in a pod
Sometimes I shake my head
while he nods
We’re not the same,
Dick and Jane
Plain.

Nothing wrong with plain
No, nothing wrong with that.
What’s great for the gander
Is kinda so-so for the cat.

Sugar and spice
Sure that’s pretty nice
I like a little sweetness
But I also like some spice.

Sometimes love is easy
Mostly it takes some work
Girls, don’t be a female dog
and Boys, don’t be a jerk
More than a snack

Love takes listening.
Close your lips
Don’t say a word.
Listen close and pay attention
Let your love
Know they are heard.

Love is more than being the same
Agreeing on every little thing
It’s allowing
Respecting
Accepting.

Peas in a pod are all well and good
Some people live in the ‘burbs
Some people live in the ‘hood
We’re all kinda different
But where it counts we’re the same.

My love and me,
We be like Wasabi Peas.

Peas be with you. (Groan)

Note: Sentiments are real but I’m not currently sharing a pod with anyone.

    Wooooooooo Weeeeeeee ……… WASABI!!!!!!!!!!

    I say, I say, this here is a fine song – poem – sonet – rhyme – action packed (vacuum sealed for freshness thang :-)

    … a female dog??? Ohhh man! ha haaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

    MsQ ~ will there be a podcast to go along with this?? 2 peas in a pod … poddie ing peas, green peas – black eyed peas – peas from Minnesota (Le Suer Peas), if only I was a pea, the pod would be a small one, small enough to be close and big enough to be stam pea ding. My ohhh my I lika my peas …. 2 peas in a pod.

    One pea says to the other, “So, have you done any “casts” from your “pod” lately???”

    Any pea would be lucky to share a pod at Q Musings. How is everything my friend? My weekend was a working one. Blechthh!!! … I think I want a 9 to 5

    OK! I’m going to the next Q Post >>>>>>>>> ;-)

    ohh yes, GREAT FINISH!!

    Peas be with you 2 …. (I like that)

    UT: Uh..huh.

    Speedy!! “Vacuum packed for freshness” bwhahahaha!! You would like “peas be with you” as you’re a punny type of guy!

    UT and Speedy(!!): Are you both serious? You guys are nuts! Seriously whacked!

    Actually, I shudda known better…”Wasabi Peas” is written with “rap” in mind and AS YOU BOTH KNOW I tend to sing very OLD SCHOOL type songs that ALREADY EXIST. That way anyone who listens to my “singing” has a bit of an audio map to follow so they know what notes I am attempting to hit.

    If I sing (!!) this – what’s in it for me? Hmmm? Do I get a podcast in return?? I know that Speedy has a very deep voice (wheee! I heard it!) and UT said his is pretty deep so…whuddup?!

    I love wasabi peas. And may we all find love that makes us say, “Wow! That is spicy!” and then reach for another fistful.

    christine: “reach for another fistful”! Wheeee! and great visual!

    Very nice. Even the “Peas be with you.”

    When I’m out for my post-ride Guinness I’ll often pick The County Cork simply because they have wasabi peas in their bar mix.

    delmer: I’d thought you’d all groan over the pun!

    Bar mixes are deadly! They can keep you drinking between their crunch and salt! I actually don’t eat wasabi peas – I like chili “heat” as opposed to horseradish-y nasal-clearing type of “heat.”

    Well, if you show me how …. the deal could be bought and sold!

    A duet in the future? Now THAT would be fun.

    Just caught that … “YOU PUNNY 2″ :-)
