Fake Coffee

I used to be a big coffee drinker Had to have my four or five cups Of real fresh brewed coffee Not for me the weak instant coffee Of decafe coffee or herbal fake coffee But over time coffee caught up to me And now I can not handle the real deal And I am forced to drink decafe coffee Which is a kind of fake coffee to me Or herbal coffee Which is entirely fake Designed to taste like the real thing But without that caffeine kick That true coffee drinkers crave Since we are all caffeine addicts at heart Just need that rush to get going And keep going And the fake coffee Just does not do the trick And so, I am doomed To drink decafe coffee And fake coffee Missing my real cup of coffee Until the I enjoy the last drop
