[Verse] So the day begins So the clock goes 'round So my vision blurs With no coffee grounds So the barista speaks With his apron on And I say "Why is there tea in my cup?" And he says "Sir Because the coffee's gone" The coffee's gone Oh The coffee's gone [Chorus] It isn't even morning It's 3 AM I don't know who I am And I won't get my coffee Not from these men So here I go again Here I go again [Verse 2] Sir I can't drink this It's a chemical stew There must be something That you can do I've been driving for days For a coffee break I've got a child on the way For my coffee's sake So he says "I am sorry Sir We haven't any coffee Please take your tea and leave" And I say "You can pry it From my cold Dead hands That's not coffee in my cup Man" And he says "Sir Because the coffee's gone" The coffee's gone Oh The coffee's gone [Chorus] It isn't even morning It's 3 AM I don't know who I am And I won't get my coffee Not from these men So here I go again Here I go again [Bridge] Then the crowd moves Like a rolling wave They look down on me Lying in my grave And the preacher speaks With his bible on And he says "Why's there tea in his cup?" And I say "Sir Because the coffee's gone" The coffee's gone Oh The coffee's gone
