COFFEE AT NIGHT - words & music by Nate Butler
Feeling mellow, this is harmony
To be really mellow -- where I want to be
Then you tease me with a dose of liquid speed
Hey, that's not something that I need -- to be keyed

I can't spend another dime on the heart-attack line
I can't spend another dime on the heart-attack line

I've been trying to relax and meditate
While not denying the anger tucked away
Then you say, "Let's go down to the cafe!"
Gimme a latte right away

I can't spend another dime on the heart-attack line
All-night pictures in my mind, I haven't seen them since the last time we drank coffee at night

Feeling mellow, just a memory
Of being really mellow; caffeine got to me
Now I rage, and burn us all in my wake!
Hey! Don'tcha like to go that way?
Like a flame, burnin' at the stake?
It's insane

I can't spend another dime on the heart-attack line
I can't spare another life on the heart-attack line
All-night pictures in my mind, I haven't seen them since the last time
They've been missing since the last time
I haven't seen you since the last time we drank coffee at night
