How to Succeed in Business - Coffee Break Lyrics |
2011 Broadway revival How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying the Musical - Coffee Break Lyrics
The song is written by Frank Loesser.
FRUMP There's no coffee!
COMPANY No coffee?! Ohhhhhh!
FRUMP If I can't take My coffee break, My coffee break, My coffee break... If I can't take My coffee break, Something within me dies.
SMITTY If I can't make Three daily trips Where shining shrine Benignly drips, And taste cardboard Between my lips. Something within me dies.
COMPANY Dies down and something within me dies.
No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!
SMITTY That office's light Doesn't have to be florescent. I'll get no pains In my head.
That office chair Doesn't have to be foam rubber, So if I spread, so I spread. But only one chemical substance Gets out the lead.
COMPANY Like she said? If I can't take My coffee break, My coffee break, My coffee break... If I can't take, My coffee break...
SMITTY & FRUMP Gone is the sense of enterprise.
COMPANY All gone and something within me dies.
No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee! No coffee!
COMPANY If I can't take My coffee break.
SMITTY Somehow the soul no longer tries.
COMPANY Coffee, coffee...
FRUMP Somewhere I don't metabolize.
COMPANY Coffee, coffee...
SMITTY & FRUMP Something within me ...
COMPANY Coffee, or otherwise... Coffee, or otherwise... Coffee, or otherwise...
Something inside of me... Dies!
