Coffee Shop

I never meant this long to stay

I lived here, seems like yesterday

It feels like that in a coffee shop

I live upstairs with three other girls

And it's not free

Babysitter's all are we

They did not hear me down here

I'm singing, screaming loud and clear

Free refills for everyone

I hang out long enough, and I will be someone

I send my family postcards

I tell them just how hard

That I've been working in a coffee shop

"Hey, guess what, Dad?

I'm saving every tip I ever had

Buying myself an old guitar"

No one hears me down here

I'm singing, screaming loud and clear

Free refills for everyone

I hang out long enough, and I will be someone

Officer Frank stumbles in

Two doughnuts, oh his coffee's too thin

Throws his guns up on the counter top

And boy, that man is mean as hell

I'm sure tonight he'll tell me all about it

In the bed above the coffee shop

No one hears me down here

I'm singing, screaming loud and clear

Free refills for everyone

I hang out long enough, and I will be someone

Yeah, I could be someone

I'm gonna be someone

Yeah watch me now, I'm gonna be someone

And the beat goes on

And the beat goes on
