lyrics

I come into work every morning at half past nine
As soon as I enter the room I see the line
I put on my apron and my name tag
Reach under the counter and grab a bag
By the time I get done here, they’ll all feel fine

With one arm, I grab a scoop to get some beans
With another I pour some milk so it can steam
And another arm turns the grinder on
Yet another one grabs the cinnamon
And one arm is dispensing the whipped cream

(Chorus)
Yes, I’ve got eight arms to caffeinate you
My shop, you’ll gravitate to
When you want to wake up don’t carbonate
Come into my shop and percolate
These beans will always animate you

You might think it’s hard to work here as I am
That I’d slip and fall down with a loud ka-blam
But with some rubber mats I can really zoom
I’ve got a salt water tank in the break room
And the coffee shop’s right on the pier, so to work I swam

As a cephalopod, I like to socialize
I can give eight simultaneous high-fives
The coffee shop is my favorite place
When I make drinks, I start my very own ‘arms race’
And with all my customers I like to fraternize

(Chorus)
‘Cause I’ve got eight arms to caffeinate you
My drinks will captivate you
When you want to wake up don’t carbonate
Come into my shop and percolate
These beans will always animate you

This shop is my very favorite place to be
Making coffee for people fills me with such glee
My coffee should win a Nobel Prize
Maybe someday, I can start a franchise
“The Finest Coffee Ever By The Sea”

Business here is going really well
I sell a hundred cups for every ocean swell
With the money I make, I buy more beans
And the newest and fanciest brew machines
And I owe it all to my lovely clientele

(Chorus)
Yes, I’ve got eight arms to caffeinate you
My shop, you’ll gravitate to
When you want to wake up don’t carbonate
Come into my shop and percolate
These beans will always animate you
