lyrics

Coffee Coffee Coffee

He looks a little bit like Leo DiCaprio
She looks a little bit like Nicole… you’re kidding me!
He thinks he’s starring in a Bollywood movie
Tight pants, biceps, tattoo of a python

Lucy comes every day, exactly on the minute
Old lady, small dog, latte with a biscuit
She’s not looking at the black-eyed slackers
Ekkied out, no doubt
They need a shot of caffeine if you want to see them happy

Coffee Coffee Coffee
Coffee Coffee Coffee
Steaming black and dirty
Hot and white and frothy

Coffee Coffee Coffeee
Coffee Coffee Coffee
I need a shot of caffeine
If you want to see me happy

Danny is a fireman at the station on the corner
The waitress is smiling as she’s taking his order
She digs his uniform, he’s breathing in her pheromones
Lucy with her little dog laughing at the theatre

Banker takes a double shot, another day, the same lies
Black bag under his arm, black bags under his eyes
Out of work actors, Latinos with an attitude
Here at Joe’s café everybody’s in the theatre

Cappuccino, macchiato, double espresso
Arabica, Robusta, the service is too slow
Skinny latte, hammerhead, decaffeinated, drip brew
The master barista is bringing it to you
Roasted, toasted, roller-coaster, steam-percolated
Brazilian, Colombian, Java or Jamaican
Mocha, Turkish, frappuccino, hydroponic, organic
I don’t know what to order
I’m starting to panic

Yeah they need a shot of caffeine
If you want to see them happy…
