The trouble with the world today it seems to me

Is coffee in a cardboard cup

The trouble with the affluent society

Is coffee in a cardboard cup

No one's ever casual and nonchalant

No one waits a minute in a restaurant

No one wants a waitress passing pleasantries

Like How're you Miss

How're you Sir

May I take your order please

The trouble with the world today is plain to see

Is everything is hurry up

It's rush it through and don't be slow

And BLT on rye to go

Coffee in a cardboard cup

The trouble with the helter-skelter life we lead

Is coffee in a cardboard cup

The trouble the psychologists have all agreed

Is coffee in a cardboard cup

Tell me what could possibly be drearier

Than seafood from the Belnord cafeteria

Seems to me a gentleman would much prefer

Afternoon

How've you been

Would you like the special sir

The trouble with the world today is plain to see

Is everything is hurry up

There's ready-wear and instant tea

And minute rice and my oh me

There's coffee (I think she said)

Coffee (I know she said)

Coffee in a cardboard cup

The trouble with the world today beyond a doubt

Is coffee in a cardboard cup

The trouble is the way we like to take things out

Like coffee in a cardboard cup

No one knows the meaning of utopia

Is dining at the corner cornucopia

Seems to me we wouldn't be such nervous wrecks

With Hello there

Be right back

Would you care for separate checks

The trouble with the world today is plain to see

Is everything is hurry up

It's all become looney tunes

With sugar packs and plastic spoons

And coffee Coffee

Coffee

Coffee

Coffee

Coffee

Coffee

Coffee

Coffee in a cardboard cup
