Story Behind The Song

Well, as the lyricist I thought of a song about coffee and how it was a shared worldwide obsession. I actually thought of it as a smooth, silky, Sade sort of a song, but Rob took it in another direction (doesn't that so often happen?) so now it's got South African guitar, Caribbean steel drums, a shot of calypso and all sorts of eclectic influences. We think it's fun - hope you all do too.

Song Description

Sung by Mark Agyei, a former UK X-Factor contestant and all-round good guy, it's a hymn to the great roasted coffee bean in all its forms. Coffee is one of the things that unites all nations. And coffee shops are the greatest places for meeting, hanging, out. people watching and savouring the java..

Lyrics

CAFÉ SOCIETY
©Rob Benham/Chris Ring

Well, it tastes so good...
Mm, like java should

Café Society...
Café Society...

I'm tasty as a coffee bean,
Sweet like syrup, smooth as cream,
From your magic moka machine
Gimme gimme gimme caffeine...

Meeting where my friends all meet
People-watching in the street
Get the buzz, love the heat
Feel the lift in my heartbeat

Oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - it's a worldwide trend
Oh oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - It's never gonna end
Oh oh oh

Loving the java -
Living so lush -
Heat me like lava -
I'm gettin' the rush

Café Society
Whoa, it tastes so good
Café Society
Mm, like java should

Savouring my every drop
Sipping like it's Turkish ground
Makes me feel so warm inside
Feel the love, it's all around

Meeting where my friends all meet
People-watching in the street
Get the buzz, love the heat
Feel the lift in my heartbeat

Oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - it's a worldwide trend
Oh oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - It's never gonna end
Oh oh oh

Loving the java -
Living so lush -
Heat me like lava -
I'm gettin' the rush

Café Society
Whoa, it tastes so good
Café Society...

Come on come on, yeah yeah,
Come on come on, yeah yeah,
Come on come on, yeah yeah,
Ah, let's go...

I'm tasty as a coffee bean,
Sweet like syrup, smooth as cream,
From your magic moka machine
Gimme gimme gimme caffeine...

Oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - it's a worldwide trend
Oh oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - It's never gonna end
Oh oh oh

Loving the java -
Living so lush -
Heat me like lava -
I'm gettin' the rush

Oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - it's a worldwide trend
Oh oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - It's never gonna end
Oh oh oh

Loving the java -
Living so lush -
Heat me like lava -
I'm gettin' the rush

Don't forget your mocha
Your espresso, latté
I said, don't forget your mocha
Your espresso, latté

Café Society
Café Society
Mmm, like java should

Oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - it's a worldwide trend
Oh oh oh - Café Society
Oh oh oh - It's never gonna end
Oh oh oh

Loving the java -
Living so lush -
Heat me like lava -
I'm gettin' the rush

Don't forget your mocha
Your espresso, latté
I said, don't forget your mocha
Your espresso, latté

Well, it tastes so good
Café Society
