Sad song about inefficient locking system

I know several people are trying to get this one, but thought I'd bring it to everyone's attention again! For those of you who haven't seen it, the answer relates to food or drink (fact or fiction) and has 8,5 letters. Hoping someone can put us all out of our misery!

I've struggled for days with this one SOS. For inefficient locking system, I played with POOR KEY = porky or porci. Fiddled with LAMENT for sad song but have got nowhere. It's a real stinker!

Thanks, Cruciformist, for trying. I've completely drawn a blank on this one. Think I'll re-post it in a few days ...

I still think the last word could be Blues (sad) but I can't work out the first word

Methyl, it's been posted several times by different people, it always looks like this :-)

Hi Methyl, the only punctuation missing is an exclamation mark at the end of the clue. No capital letters or anything.

Yes, Methyl, you're right about punctuation and how you've put it is exactly as it appears in the quiz. Any ideas?

I might be way off but how about "leeks" for the last word? I am guessing that these are inefficient locks on a canal which leak? Probably not though.
