Have Another Espresso Shel Silverstein

Now whenever life is looking dark and mean
I have myself and espresso
And then I kinda sit back and like dig the scene
And maybe have myself another espresso
And there's a chick in the coffee shop who's caught my eye
But she never talks to me when I walk by
So I sit there and I cool it and I'm oh so sly
And I have myself another espresso

Well last night I decided to do the thing
As I had myself another espresso
So I asked that chick, would she care to swing
As I had myself another espresso
And she said, "Baby, that's uh cool with me
But like I can't split until half past three
So why don't you just sit there and cool it and like wait for me
And maybe have yourself another espresso."

Well I never cared much for formal dates
I just sit and have myself an espresso
Man ya know but when a chick is a groove like baby you've gotta wait
And maybe have yourself another espresso
So I took off my coat and I hung up my hat
And for the next five hours right there I sat
You know that chick went home with some other cat
And so I had myself another espresso
