Way down among Brazilians
Coffee beans grow by the billions
So they’ve got to find those extra cups to fill
They’ve got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil
You can’t get cherry soda
Cause they’ve gotta sell their quota
And the way things are I bet they never will
They’ve got a zillion pounds of coffee in Brazil
No tea
nor tomato juice
You’ll see
no potato juice
Cause the planters down in Santos
All say no, no, no
The politican’s daughter
Was accused of drinkin’ water
And was fined a great big fifty dollar bill
They’ve got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil
You date a girl and find out later
She smells like a percolator
Her perfume was made right on the grill
They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil
And when their ham and eggs need savor
Coffee ketchup gives ‘em flavor
Coffee pickles way outsell the dill
They’ve got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil
No tea
nor tomato juice
You’ll see
no potato juice
Cause the planters down in Santos
All say no, no, no
So you’ll add to the local color
Serve some coffee with a cruller
Dunkin' doesn’t take alot of skill
Man, they put coffee in the coffee in Brazil
"The Coffee Song" as performed by Soul Coughing
