The second coffee (Extended Lounge Remix)

(Originally from Nobody Counting) [Verse 1] The first one's medicine, you drink it standing up Reading something on a phone you won't remember The second one's different, you sit down for that one Both hands round it, nowhere to be till nine [Verse 2] Twelve minutes, that's all, I've timed it before Between the second coffee and the coat and the door And in twelve minutes nobody wants anything from me And I've built a whole life on that [Chorus] Give me the twelve minutes You can have the rest Take the meetings, take the inbox Take the man on the phone who says he'll call back Just leave me the second coffee And I'll give you the day [Verse 3] My mother did it too, at a different table Same hands, same chair, same look at the window She never said it was anything, she'd just go quiet And we knew to leave her alone till she moved [Chorus] Give me the twelve minutes You can have the rest Take the meetings, take the inbox Take the man on the phone who says he'll call back Just leave me the second coffee And I'll give you the day [Bridge] It isn't about the coffee It was never about the coffee [Chorus] Give me the twelve minutes You can have the rest Take the meetings, take the inbox Take the man on the phone who says he'll call back Just leave me the second coffee And I'll give you the day
