Too Much Coffee (Ray Carmen)
Too Much Coffee (Ray Carmen)
a group of home recording musicians, recording for fun
Lyrics
He's been up all night blasting the television set
The neighbors are sayin' he's makin' way too much noise
His wife is a nervous wreck
He can't go to sleep at night, so he sits in front of his electronic toy
"You gotta go to work tomorrow
You better have your ass up by eight
I'm warning you, I'm not tellin' you again
Livin' with you hasn't been all that great
You're drinkin' way too much coffee!"
He's starin' at those cathode rays
I bet his bloodshot eyes have seen every bad movie ever made
He's wound up like a coil that's about to snap
He's clawing the furniture like a cheshire cat
His mind is as blank as a test pattern
"You gotta drive me to work tomorrow
You gotta mow the lawn when you get home
And don't forget to take out the trash
You're spendin' way too much time alone
You're drinkin' way too much coffee!"
"What did you say...?"
"Alright, we know you're in there
Now turn off the TV and surrender
Put the coffee on the ground
And put your hands behind your head..."
