I pull up to the drive-in
My least favorite coffee shop
Nope, decide to park my car
Get out, forget to lock
Packed to the brim,
This pit looks grim
But I do need my coffee
They might as well
Open a hotel
And have a giant lobby
I wait in line 'till half past nine
No one has time for this
Only the hopeless addicts
And my name is on the list
I order a lot of latte,
But I am not prepared
Too sweet to eat, and much less drink
Four bucks? You think it's fair?
Between the screams of sugar
My tongue complains of ash
All I want is roasted beans
Not burnt. Too much to ask?
I feel cheated, chug it down
And throw away my cup
Off to work, and with a frown,
In traffic, I am stuck
Of course I talk, and I complain,
And chip, and gripe, and whine
But tomorrow I'll be here again
The same thing every time.
Einstein defines stupidity
Actions of repetition.
Again into infinity,
And this is my condition.
