How about this one...

"Brudder bought a coconut he bought it for a dime"...

But his sister put "THE LIME IN THE COCONUT."

Actually, the real problem was that she added too much RUM and got sick. When she asked the doctor for something to settle her stomach, he suggested the folk remedy, lime and coconut (without rum). The miscommunications and hilarity ensued.

[Human without the bean]

"Viva La Vida"   Sometimes it takes a clear head to catch things like this song.  Yesterday I couldn't make it out but today it just came to me.  Clearer head.
