Too Late for Latte

[Intro] Well, it’s one of those mornings, huh Not too early, just late enough To miss the beep, that little cheep Of my coffee machine giving up [Verse] I came down with a mug in my hand Expecting some magic, some dark roasted brand But there it was silent, cold, and aloof Like my plans for the morning just poofed off the roof [Chorus] I just heard my coffee machine turn off The second, the moment, I stepped off my loft Now I'm standing here, and what do I see? A blinking red light mocking me [Verse] Should’ve been quicker, should’ve flown down the stairs Now I’m just sniffing the last of the airs Of a brew that was made when I was still in my bed Dreaming of espresso, but getting grief instead [Bridge] Oh, coffee, my coffee, why do you betray? I was just five minutes, not even a full delay Now it’s just me and the cereal dry Thinking ‘bout coffee and starting to cry [Verse] Check it, there’s a lesson, in this mess, I confess Gotta wake up before the coffee says "nope" Gotta move fast, no time to freeze Or it’s just cold coffee or none, just tease [Chorus] I just heard my coffee machine turn off The second, the moment, I stepped off my loft Now I'm standing here, and what do I see? A blinking red light mocking me [Outro] So tomorrow, I swear, I’ll be quick on my feet Won’t let that red light beat me to the beep I’ll be there waiting, I’ll catch it in the act ’Cause morning without coffee? No way, that’s a fact!
