Story Behind The Song

I just wish my wife could be convinced of the merits of coffee before breakfast a bit more often.

Lyrics

COFFEE BEFORE BREAKFAST

Verse
We ate chocolate covered almonds
The wine had a screw-top lid
We had no reservations
About doing what we did
We drifted off and closed our eyes
More than satisfied
And the next thing I remember she was
Shaking me and poking me and telling me

Chorus
That she wanted her
Coffee before breakfast
If you know what I mean
She wasn?t worried about sleeping
She wanted to interpret my dreams
She?d been lying awake for an hour or two
And was developing quite a thirst
I told her I?d make her breakfast
But she wanted her coffee first

Verse
We?ve been married for awhile now
Got kids and steady jobs
Its hard to find time for loving
When your running around the clock
But sometimes in the morning
When the kids are still in bed
The first thing I remember is she?s pushing me and jabbing me
And telling me

Chorus
That she wants her
Coffee before breakfast
If you know what I mean
She?s not worried about sleeping
She wants to interpret my dreams
She?s been lying awake for an hour or two
And is developing quite a thirst
I tell her I?ll make her breakfast
But she wants her coffee first

Bridge
I wouldn?t trade this hectic busy life
I wouldn?t trade my early-rising wife
Cause every time she wakes me up - pushes me - pokes at me and jabs at me
I still get her some coffee...

Chorus
Coffee before breakfast
What?s a man to do
I?ve got to - keep her happy
One sugar or two
I just add a little sweetness
Give a little stir
I tell her I?ll make her breakfast
But she wants her coffee first
