Music: Bucky's Fatal Mistake
Lyrics: Eleanor Linafelt, Charlie Steinman

lyrics

Oh well I overheard a woman at the coffee aisle
Yeah her daughter was dismissing her passion
Couldn't find a job with it, nothing really dropping itself
Where she could get her ration

I knew we could both smell the strong coffee grounds
They were drifting through the corners of my brain
Conjuring images of cafes and bookstores
I wonder if she felt the same

My mind is racin', ain't feeling chastened
Jitterbugs in my pants
I'm philosophical, barista comical
Immanence in my head dance

To the woman it lingered in her nostrils for a while
A reminder of her daughter's apartment
Where coffee isn't intellectual sustenance, but
A daily practical jump-starter

But if you got a cappucino you might not end up a wino
Hanging round the wrong side of this market

My mind is racin', ain't feeling chastened
Jitterbugs in my pants
I'm philosophical, barista comical
Immanence in my head dance

My mind is racin', ain't feeling chastened
Jitterbugs in my pants
I'm philosophical, barista comical
Immanence in my head dance
