i put on my jacket
throw on my backpack
say goodbye to the cat
and head on out the door
beep beep
take the elevator down
close the gate behind
put my sunglasses on
and head on out the door
beep beep
put the piece in my ear
connect the cord to the phone
dial the numbers to my house
chat away with my mom
beep beep,
beep beep
get to the shop
tell my mom i gotta go
turn off the phone
and head in through the door
beep beep
order up a coffee
mix in the milk
find my paper in the bin
and take a place to sit
beep beep
place my backpack on the floor
take my jacket off my back
straighten out the table
and flip through the news
beep beep
read for an hour
think through it all
finish up my coffee
and head on out the door
beep beep,
beep beep

this is just a peek
into my every day
coffee in the morning
and head on out the door
beep beep,
beep beep
