Lyrics

I want a cup of Joe
I crave a plate of Dave
Open a jar of John
Don't put anything on

I'll chug a jug of George
I'll sip a mug of Doug
With a creamer of Steve
How many more does that leave?

Give me a pot of Scott
Heat up a pan of Stan
Throw in a handful of Dick
That'll do every trick

Serve a carafe of Matt
Upon a tray of Ray
I'll lick a spoon of Sean
Do I need to go on?
I want a cup of Joe

I'll pour a glass of Chas
Into a tub of Bob
I'll smoke a pack of Jack
While I'm flat on my back

I'll eat a dish of Chris
Out of a bowl of Joel
On a saucer of Tim
Or would you rather have him?

Just fill me up with Fred
Feed me a fork of Frank
And one more helping of Dick
Lay it on nice and thick

Open a can of Dan
And make a meal of Sam
But don't give me no Moe
'Cause what I really want's a cup of Joe

A plate of Dave
Creamer of Steve
A mug of Doug
A cup of ...
