The Tragically Hip - Coffee Girl Lyrics

It's hard to leave your bed
The cool and hard summer sheets
Hangover hanging on by the fangs
Walk to work on wild feet
Get to the back door
Look around then turn the key
Turn all the lights on
Take down the chairs and make things neat

Hey there Coffee Girl
Beautiful and disaffected
It was all perfect till
He came along and wrecked it

Your favorite mixed tape
You popped it into the deck
Don't care if it's out of date
Ol' cat power and classic Beck
Beware purveyors of cool
With their compacts of one
Talking cannons to fool
When all you need's a BB gun

Hey there Coffee Girl
Beautiful and disaffected
It was all perfect till
He came along and wrecked it

One night he'll make you choose
I'm sorry but he will
The hardscape or your shoes
When the moon's behind the hill

Hey there Coffee Girl
Beautiful and disaffected
It was all perfect till
He came along and wrecked it
Hey there Coffee Girl
Hey Coffee Girl
Hey there Coffee Girl
Hey there Coffee Girl
