Dark Roast Shakes

Verse 1

Alarm goes off at 6 AM, but I am still in bed

Got a heavy, foggy feeling sitting right inside my head

I stumble to the kitchen, it’s a desperate, daily mission

To fill the mug and start the machine, bowing to the tradition

One sip, two sips, I feel the liquid heat

My heart starts drumming up a heavy, frantic beat.

Chorus

Oh, I’m shaking, I’m aching, for another pot of brew

Caffeine, caffeine, I’m stuck to you

Got the dark roast shakes, yeah, I’m hooked on the bean

Never felt so anxious, never felt so clean

Yeah, I’m speeding through the day, trying to find my way

On a dark roast shake.

Verse 2

By 10 AM I’m flying, my eyelids open wide

I’m talking fast to everyone with nowhere left to hide

It’s liquid motivation, a temporary fix

I’m caught inside the routine, addicted to the tricks

Water tastes like nothing, soda is too slow

I need a quadruple shot to really make me go.

Chorus

Oh, I’m shaking, I’m aching, for another pot of brew

Caffeine, caffeine, I’m stuck to you

Got the dark roast shakes, yeah, I’m hooked on the bean

Never felt so anxious, never felt so clean

Yeah, I’m speeding through the day, trying to find my way

On a dark roast shake.

Bridge

They say I should slow down, maybe try decaf instead

But I’d rather keep the buzzing going inside of my head

A little crash at 4 PM? No, I’ll just get another

Espresso in my right hand, cold brew for the other!

Chorus

Oh, I’m shaking, I’m aching, for another pot of brew

Caffeine, caffeine, I’m stuck to you

Got the dark roast shakes, yeah, I’m hooked on the bean

Never felt so anxious, never felt so clean

Yeah, I’m speeding through the day, trying to find my way

On a dark roast shake.

Outro

Just one more cup...

Okay, maybe two...

Is there any left?

I’m addicted to you.
