It was a rainy morning
we got coffee on winooski
we were tired of making
coffee in our lonely kitchens
by the beer cans piling
and the dirty dishes
I’m so tired baby
of everyone and everything
please don’t play those games now
nobody ever wins
she said I don’t play card games
but I got magic tricks
I said I dream of a lover
she said I know what u mean
someone who understands
what love & respect mean
I said baby
can we get more coffee
how do you like your coffee baby
how do you like your coffee

I was single I went on Christian Mingle,
Gotta hand job from Hell.
I thought I was in love but Jenny broke my heart
Saying, “Long distance don’t work, baby.”
Yeah, I hit the bars downtown.
“Have you seen average Jane in hand-me-downs?”
An IPA will do for now.
Bartender, one more round.
Bartender, I’ll have two more rounds.
Bartender, I’ll have three more rounds.
Bartender, I lost count.
I woke up. I walked downtown.
My best friend joined for hash and browns.
He said, “Hey, Stevie baby, what’s got you down?”
And I said, “Love, man. It’s hard to find.”
“The only love in this town is tequila and limes.”
“Ahhhh man, no sweat, she’ll come around.”
“But tonight, we’re drinking at this bar downtown!”
Bartender, I’ll have two more rounds.
Bartender, I’ll have three more rounds.
Bartender, I lost count.
I was single I logged off Christian Mingle
and stopped giving a shit.
She will come around and I ain’t in no rush.
I gotta big ass heart and a tiny tush.
I may be lonesome but I ain’t desperate.
Babe I can move my hips and kiss your lips.
But do I want to take you on a camping trip?
Bartender, I think I’m over it.
Bartender, I am over it.
Just kidding, I want one more sip.
ONE MORE, TWO MORE
THREE MORE
FOUR!!!!!!!
I was single I went on Christian Mingle,
And now I look back at Hell

nobody home so do you dare
you take my heart out
zigzag upstairs
your hands glissando
move in triangles
accelerando
allegro
reverso
and you go
and you go
don’t tell my man
I lace my boots
walk out your door
into your man
home from the store
“who are you?”
he says to me
I say, “hey pal.”
“I fix TVs”
and that will be (3X)
$170
and I say
and I say
thank you
have a good day
