[Intro]
This morning I spilt coffee on myself
For thirty whole seconds
I wanted to cry
But I laughed instead
And said 'fuck it, that's just life'
I still haven't changed my clothes
Cause the smell reminds me of this guy I knew back in highschool who worked at a local coffee shop
[Verse 1]
On a Tuesday afternoon
He said he liked my dress
I said thank you, then I went home and wrote about it
Cause when you're sixteen
Boys being nice to you is monumental news
A week later he died
It's funny how life works
Cause I still smell him on every awkward first date when someone asks me to get coffee at 7:00pm on Thursday
[Chorus]
I can't tell if I never go on second dates because
Caffeine at night is unreasonable
Or if it's because his ghost makes me feel uneasy
[Verse 2]
It's probably because I'm terrified of attachment
Because everybody leaves
At least that's what my mom taught me
When she brought a new man home every single night
I don't blame her for needing humid heat [?]
I only blame her for never giving it to me
But by eighteen I learned how to do things on my own
Like how to cook and how to clean
If only I had a home; I learned how to smile and to convince people not to be mad at me for not wanting to fuck them
I'll them that it's not their fault
We just met in a gas station
And we don't even know each other's names
Or favorite colors, or favorite smells, or favorite anything at all
Because we're strangers and you grope me in the candy aisle
[Outro]
But I guess
That's the same thing as a Friday morning
When the sun is out and everything feels nice
You took time to brush your hair
And time to get dressed
Then you spill
Coffee on yourself
This morning I spilt coffee on myself
For thirty whole seconds
I wanted to cry
But I laughed instead
And said 'fuck it, that's just life'
I still haven't changed my clothes
Cause the smell reminds me of this guy I knew back in highschool who worked at a local coffee shop
[Verse 1]

Or if it's because his ghost makes me feel uneasy

Coffee on yourself
