You should know how to open a can without a "can opener".

Just a punch and mallet will make short work of any can. Yes, it is not as neat but Martha Stewart is not going to be around to "tisk tisk" your handy work.

I haven't tried it yet, but I've read that if you rub the end of the can against an abrasive surface, like cinderblock, brick or concrete, you can sand off the thin layer of metal on the bead and the lid will then lift right off.
