Name: Morning Coffee
Duration: P00H02M25S
Description: The songwriting group I'm in hosts a monthly write-in. Participants are given prompts to choose from, then have an hour to see how far a new song can be developed.

lyrics

Morning comes and hesitation settles in
Resistance makes me want to stay in bed
Lethargy fights me and it could win
But that's no way to get ahead

Oh, I need my morning coffee
That pick-me-up potion gets the day underway
Oh, I need my morning coffee
The perfect way to start my day

Yawns supressed, I leave my nest, and roll on out
Splash my face to try to be alert
Stumble down the stairs amid some doubt
If I should be awake or inert

Oh, I need my morning coffee
That pick-me-up potion gets the day underway
Oh, I need my morning coffee
The perfect way to start my day

Several cups and wakefulness transfuses in
Giving hope for the day ahead
Go to work and wait for coffee break
When caffeine works its spell again

Oh, I need my morning coffee
That pick-me-up potion gets the day underway
Oh, I need my morning coffee
The perfect way to start my day

Elixir of the gods, in grindings or in pods
It helps to get me on my way

Oh, I need my morning coffee
That pick-me-up potion gets the day underway
Oh, I need my morning coffee
The perfect way to start
The perfect way to start
The perfect way to start....my day
