They gained popularity in the local music scene for their quirky performances that transcended the usual pub gig format.

Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Woke up this morning, [D] brew in my hand,
[Em] Looking at the mirror, [C] where do I stand?
[G] Rays piercing through, [D] shadows so deep,
[Em] Searching for answers, [C] secrets to keep.
(Chorus)
[G] Down the twisted pathways, [D] where dreams collide,
[Em] We find our places, [C] we can’t hide.
[G] Chasing the moonlight, [D] embracing the sun,
[Em] Our journey’s just started, [C] it’s never done.
(Verse 2)
[G] Strumming the strings, [D] rhythm of our hearts,
[Em] In the sound of the silence, [C] that’s where it starts.
[G] The joy, the sorrow, [D] the laughter and pain,
[Em] We are the Clear-Cut Bean, [C] dancing in the rain.
(Chorus)
[G] Down the twisted pathways, [D] where dreams collide,
[Em] We find our places, [C] we can’t hide.
[G] Chasing the moonlight, [D] embracing the sun,
[Em] Our journey’s just started, [C] it’s never done.
(Outro)
[G] So we keep on moving, [D] with the flow,
[Em] Through the highs and lows, [C] ready to grow.
[G] We are Clear-Cut Bean, [D] this is our song,
[Em] On the twisted pathways, [C] where we belong.
