The trouble with the world today, it seems to me
Is coffee in a cardboard cup
The trouble with the affluent society
Is coffee in a cardboard cup
No one's ever casual and nonchalant
No one wastes a minute in a restaurant
No one wants a waitress passing pleasantries
Like "Hiya, miss!"
"Hiya, sir!"
"May I take your order, please?"
The trouble with the world today, it's plain to see
Is everything is "hurry up"
It's rush you through
And don't be slow
BLTs
On-ride and go
And coffee
I think she said
Coffee
I'm sure she said
Coffee
In a cardboard cup
The trouble with the Elvis belted life we lead
Is coffee in a cardboard...
Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah
The trouble the psychologists have all agreed
Is coffee in a cardboard...
La, la, la, la
Tell me what could possibly be drearier
Than soup poured from the Bell Nord cafeteria
Seems to me a gentleman would much prefer
An afternoon
"Hiya, Ben!"
"How would you like the special, sir?"
The trouble with the world today, it's plain to see
Is everything is "hurry up"
Best Reddi-wip
Electric shave
In a box
And microwave
And coffee
I think she said
Coffee
I'm sure she said
Coffee
In a cardboard cup
The trouble with the world today, the upside out
Is coffee in a cardboard cup
No, nobody knows, nobody knows
The trouble I've seen
The trouble is the way we like to take things out
Like coffee in a cardboard cup
No, no, no, nobody knows, nobody knows
If you see what I mean
And no one knows the meaning of "your cold beer"
'Cause I imagine you want to call it "cold beer"
Seems to me we wouldn't be such nervous wrecks
With "Hello there!"
"Be right back"
And would you care for separate drinks?
The trouble with the world today, it's plain to see
Is everything is "hurry up"
It's all become
Looney Tunes
With sugar pads
And plastic spoons
And coffee
Espresso
Coffee
Cappuccino

Coffee in a cardboard cup
Hurry up!
