Couplet 1Ophélia: Rain on the window, seven a.m. Two cups by the machine, same as they've always been One of us presses the button, the other one glares Some wars are worth fighting, in pyjamas, down the stairs RefreinMy coffee first, that's how it goes You steal my sugar, heaven knows We'll never settle who was right But every morning starts this fight And I wouldn't trade it, come what may My coffee first... okay, okay, you win today Couplet 2Anita: We both take it black, but you count your sugar twice I hide the last biscuit, you never ask me nice The birds at the window are laughing at us Two grown-up sisters making all this fuss RefreinMy coffee first, that's how it goes You steal my sugar, heaven knows We'll never settle who was right But every morning starts this fight And I wouldn't trade it, come what may My coffee first... okay, okay, you win today BridgeAnd if some morning one cup stands alone Cold by the machine... no. Press the button. Come home. OutroOphélia: My coffee first. Anita: ...But you can have my sugar.
