Ode to my Abbey Road Beatles Mug

a poem by TBinns

My Beatles mug

Abbey Road

John, Paul, George and Ringo

Why did you cross the road?

To bring me a warm beverage

Where are you?

Did she come in through the bathroom window

and steal you?

Oh Darling

Someone has found you

In the sink of the office kitchen

Broken in two

Like my heart.

Broken, smashed

By Maxwell’s silver hammer

Never again to

Come Together.

He threw you away

And now

I’m going to carry that weight

I’ll carry that weight a long time.

Tbinns

Thank you. I am particularly sad because I got it in San Francisco. The city, not the store.

Ringo

Now listen here, you old flattop, i dont want to leave thecorrectness now (many late nights all alone with my Net-tube. oohh oh oh oh oh) and I’ll never do you no harm, but…

hit it….

Do I have to be holding your tea
in your souvenir Abbey Road Mug with me.
You heat it up, pour it in your cup
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, let it be.

I don’t recall you asking me
if you could stain my face with tea
You heat it up, pour it in your cup
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, let it be.

What does it say, when you display
John, Paul George & me Ringo, anyway?
All of our heads, some of us dead
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, let it be.

Well Correctness…

YOUR MUG SAYS THAT YOU HAVE GREAT TASTE
A NICKELBACK MUG WOULD BE A DISGRACE
Please heat it up, pour it in your cup
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, with me
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, with me
your souvenir Abbey Road Mug, with me.
doopy doopy doopy doo doooo

peace & love,

Ringo
