Lyrics
Coffee Girl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's hard to leave your bed
The cool and hard summer sheets
Hangover hanging on by the fangs
Walk to work on wild feet
Get to the back door
Look around and turn the key
Turn on all the lights
Take down the chairs and make things neat
Hey there Coffee Girl
Beautiful and disaffected
It was perfect 'til
He came along and wrecked it
Your favourite mixed tape
You popped it into the deck
Don't care it's out of date
Old Cat Power and classic Beck
Beware Purveyors of Cool
With their compacts of one
Taking cannons to fools
When all you need's a BB gun
Hey there Coffee Girl (hey there Coffee Girl)
Beautiful and disaffected
It was perfect 'til (it was perfect 'til)
He came along and wrecked it
One night he'll make you choose
I am sorry but he will
The Hardscape or your shoes
When the moon's behind the hill
Hey there Coffee Girl (hey there Coffee Girl)
Beautiful and disaffected
It was perfect 'til (it was perfect 'til)
He came along and wrecked it
Hey there Coffee Girl
