Press For Coffee

Pushing happily along  today
We are awake very early
We need this job you know
Why? To buy more coffee!

Yes, food, rent, car, etc, all
But serve it hot in the mornings
Then we look up, work done!
Meetings wide eyed noted

Freedom to drink hot coffee
Followed us much on today!
Went walking was offered a cup!
I believe that I will have one! Two!

No, I do not want tea... Coffee!
Yes, Coffee! When? Every day!
If you've got to have Coffee then
Why didn't you say so! Coffee!

You do what? I Press for Coffee!
Coffee gets me through the day!
Nights are grand! Coffee dreams?
Never dreamed coffee was this good!
