How did the coffee taste for you, Sir Bach?

In seventeen-and-thirty-four, was it

The same as now, or sweeter then indeed?

Just as you say, süße, I'm sure you're right.

But must I wonder? Yes I must: How now

Might Timmy's be when in compare to yours

Or maybe if St. Starbuck were compared

We'd know how well evolved our coffee were.

**

And while you stroke the chord on harpsichord again

And while your fingers tingle with caffeine

And while I listen here on MP3

And sip from my beloved cup o' joe...

**

Ah, but it's just our own addiction that

Would matter to us any time at all

And so comparing's not a thing we'll do

Because our loyalty's our habit, that is all.
