WOULD COFFEE DO THE TRICK?

Disappointed and hungover
I'm feeling pretty sick
I don't even get the headlines
Words don't seem to stick

Would coffee do the trick?
Would coffee do the trick?
Would coffee do the trick?
Would coffee do the trick?

How'm I gonna make it through the day
To any great effect
When I keep dreamin' of her blue eyes
And the fragrance of her neck

Would coffee do the trick? etc.

I'd like to ask her out for dinner
But I ain't feeling very hip
My heart is altogether true
But I fear my tongue may slip

Would coffee do the trick? etc.

You'll have to build it from the bottom
Slowly brick by brick
But we just jumped into it
And it happened all too quick

Would coffee do the trick? etc.

Oh the songs we sang together
The way we seemed to click
Now if it's gone forever
Where can I find another kick?

Would coffee do the trick? etc.
