How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying movie - Coffee Break lyrics

rate me

<br>

There's no coffee! No coffee! Oh! <br>

<br>

If I can't take my coffee break,<br>

My coffee break, my coffee break . . .<br>

If I can't take my coffee break,<br>

Something within me dies.<br>

Lies down and something within me dies. <br>

<br>

If I can't make three daily trips<br>

Where shining shrine<br>

Benignly drips<br>

And taste cardboard between my lips,<br>

Something within me dies.<br>

Lies down and something within me dies. <br>

<br>

No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!<br>

No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!<br>

No coffee! No coffee! <br>

<br>

That office light doesn't have to be fluorescent;<br>

I'll get no pains in the head.<br>

That office chair doesn't have to be foam rubber;<br>

So if I spread, so I spread;<br>

But only one chemical substance<br>

Gets out the lead--<br>

Like she said: <br>

<br>

If I can't take my coffee break,<br>

My coffee break, my coffee break . . .<br>

If I can't take my coffee break,<br>

Gone is the sense of enterprise<br>

All gone, and something within me dies. <br>

<br>

No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!<br>

No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!<br>

No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!<br>

No coffee! <br>

<br>

If I can't take my coffee break,<br>

Somehow the soul no longer tries;<br>

Somewhere I don't metabolize;<br>

Something within me . . .<br>

Coffee or otherwise,<br>

Coffee or otherwise,<br>

Coffee or otherwise,<br>

Something inside of me dies!<br>

<br>
