Listen to the rhythm of the roasting drum
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it end and let me stop this pain
And let me grind and brew again

The favorite bean I crave so much has gone away
Depleted stash now needs a new start
But little did I know when I pulled that very last shot
The crema took my breath and stole my heart

Bean please tell me now does that seem fair
For you to steal my soul away with taste so rare
I can't drink another when my portafilter's far away

Bean don't you know that I love you so
Please ask the sun to set my palate aglow
Bean in my heart and let the love we knew start to grow

Listen to the rhythm of the roasting drum
Telling me just what a fool I've been
New beans do roast and soon will let me stop this pain
And let me grind and brew again

Oh listen to the rhythm of the roasting bean
Swish-swish-swoosh swish-swish-swoosh ever calling
Oh yes listen to the rhythm of the roasting drum
New beans to grind and brew again
