lyrics
All you cute baristas with your mad foam game
y'all know about my past and you know my name
you can gimme what I want 'cause of my mad fame
and you brew it like I like it everyday – caffeine
and you brew it like I like it everyday – caffeine
ain't nothin that a little caffeine can't fix
gimme that double shot for insane mad kicks
make my head twitch, make my hands itch, playing jazz licks, sayin YAAS instead of a plain sad nix
spent all morning with my mind in the gutter
now you make me bulletproof when you grind in the butter
lemme get a good gram lemme wind back the shutter
i got analog gear to make that shit look hotter
I come so often people think I'm your mascot
you make a nice thick froth on it when I ask,
gotta get me one those sweet buns from the basket
ring up the total now the world's getting ass-kicked
put on my shades when I step to the streets
sippin' on my 'cino when I'm making hot beats
I burn up the session then I eat something sweet
at night I can't sleep so I roll in the sheets thinkin'
All you cute baristas...
Now it’s it’s 20 20 shit shit’s fucked up
Drip drip plenty plenty just to fix my cup
All I ever really wanted was a GOOD LIFE
All I ever really wanted was a GOOD LIFE
We still got WAY and we still got GASTRO
and I'm wishing you survive longer than Fiddy Castro
But ‘rona ‘rona 'rona done messed up my damn routine
I’m drippin COVFEFE dressed up like Vlad Putin
Shirtless, in my long johns, well does it hurt, yes
It Trumped up Don but it cut down Johnson
It lurks in the distance like Charles
Once upon a time in the west we had dreams of mars
we were promised AI trips beyond the stars
we got the plague, drip coffee and non-flying cars
If I wanted retro I would have gone with SARS
Help me Father Metro I know you got bars
TL: It's the corona pandemic, everybody stay home
Nobody move, nobody go AWOL
Plato shit playing on the cave wall
My Moccamaster drippin', tippie-toe in my Reinos
Ain't no joke, my brain don't cope with this
Grindin' all my own beans now with no finesse
The loneliness will make a man break (shit)
Drinking mediocre mocca, no more handshakes
I can't wait for this sucka to done with
I isolate and contemplate: can we get this crowdfunded?
Straight out my bedroom, plenty of headroom
My caffeine level going zero to a hundred
So can I get cuppah, can I get an amen?
High time, motherfucka, for a brand new blend
Gimme your darkest roast, under the counter shit
Hear the Pavoni go pffffssffhht, sound effects
Can’t wait to get to Café Art again
Sävy, Bon Temps, Artisan
Brooklyn with the cupcake love I'm in
But 'til then I'mma listen to the government
Even the hardest men need a coffee break
Fresh pot! Grab a cup, it's your lucky day
Pour some milk on that java, make 'em copulate
Cause home is now the only coffee bar you can populate
So you want another cup?
Well, don't mind if I do
Ask myself if I want another cup
Well, bring the brew!
High five, but only if you Skype me
Me and Tuomo 'bout to start a COVFEFE fight team
Worldwide coffee troops, all the right beans
One love
Fuck COVID-19
All you cute baristas...
