Decaf Cheap Trick

"Decaf" by Cheap Trick, released in 1997, is a #Rock song that explores themes of disillusionment and the search for authenticity in a world filled with superficiality. The lyrics convey a sense of yearning for genuine connection, using caffeine as a metaphor for excitement. Musically, it features catchy hooks and a playful tone, characteristic of the band's style. While not a major hit, it reflects the band's enduring appeal and ability to blend humor with deeper messages.

Wait for the man to call
I need it fast as I can
I've been shaking all over
It's got me drummin' my hands

I've been thinking 'bout the thought on my brain
About to drive me insane
There ain't no safety you feel that thing
I press the buttons again

You reckon you've got everything to die for
Decaf is here again
It's what I live and breathe and lie for

It's X o'clock and I'm waiting
Waitin' for the call
In the sweat I keep pacin'
It's time to get on the ball

I've been thinking 'bout pulling the chain
Cause now I'm past insane
There ain't no safety you take that step, yeah
You live without your cane

You reckon you've got everything that I'd die for
Decaf is here again
It's what I live and breathe and die for
