How many beans make 5?

It's a British sort of joke phrase such that when asked the reply or answer is:

Bean, bean, bean and a half, half a bean and a bean.

My father used to ask me this when I was young and it was told to me as,

"Two beans, a bean and a half, half a bean and a bean."

After looking at various sources trying to figure out why anyone started saying this at all, I came across many versions. They all seem to contain most of the following parts in some arrangement: two beans, a bean, bean and a half and half a bean. I decided on this version because if listen you can hear the rhythm like a poem.

"Bean, bean, bean and a half, half a bean and a bean."

Oddly about 1 in 5 of the answers didn't actually add up to 5 beans.
The father turned to his little boy and asked, "How many beans make 5?" To which his son replied with great enthusiasm,
"Bean, bean, bean and a half, half a bean and a bean!"
