I ain't doing the singing, but feel free to write your own tune to suit these anthemic lyrics for 'Cinnamon Cup Coffee'. I had Australia's own 'Advance Australia Fair' in mind, the song I refuse to sing when everyone else does and that was created in 1986.
To get the full anthem vibe, hit play first, and sing along.
Coffee lovers, sing with joy
Let's not waste time with tea
We've got Arabica and Java
And we drink Yirgacheffe with with glee
Beans are truly nature's gifts
What a love affair
So every day let us drink
A shot or two so fair
With a joyful tune, now let us sing
To coffee, rich and rare
With every sip, our spirits soar
And makes our days more fair
Beneath our radiant Southern Cross
We'll drink espresso every morning
It helps us wake and face the day
And challenges so daunting
For those who lack the energy
To face the hellish fray
It's caffeine that'll get us through
The strain of every day
With a joyful tune, now let us sing
To coffee, rich and rare
With every sip, our spirits soar
And makes our days more fair
Or, we can go for the 'God Save the Queen' version, or 'God Save the King', which is a bit of a cop out - what, they couldn't sell a few castles to fund a new anthem?
All hail our tasty bean,
Long live our noble bean,
All hail the bean!
Roast them for all of us,
Tasty and glorious,
With taste meritorious,
All hail the bean!
An espresso helps us arise,
A cappucino with sugar please,
And make them warm!
Ground up fresh arabica,
Tamper the grinds real nice,
Pour through boiling water,
All hail the cuppa!
Hot with a vegan milk,
Or black and smooth as silk,
Drink every day!
Forego all the boring tea,
It's caffeine or nothing for me,
Gives us some energy,
And keeps us bright.
From every plantation,
From every nation,
All hail the bean!
Smooth may be every blend
The droughts never cause the end,
Our saviour, helper, and friend,
All hail the bean!
The choicest roast for us to pour
Makes our hearts happily soar
All hail the bean!
May we enjoy every brew
Spirits joyfully renewed
Wake up our hearts and minds
All hail the bean!
I don't even drink coffee anymore, but it was sure fun writing these anthems. It wouldn't sound the same if I was extolling a hot water with lemon or a chamomile tea with hops, now, would it?
