A proper cup of coffee


All I want is a proper cup of coffee,
made from a proper copper coffee pot,
I may be off my nut,
but I want a proper cup of coffee from a proper copper pot.
Iron coffee pots and tine coffee pots,
they're no good to me!
And if I can't have a proper cup of coffee from a proper coffee pot
I'll have a cup of tea...

I'm too old to remember the song, of course, but somehow I do find myself singing it as I perform my coffee making ceremony every day....

  6. Sorry about that - I tried to link a comment to a you tube video -
    The comment said that the song is by Trout Fishing In America!
    Great song - I love it too.

  17. Hehe- I have a set of 'valentine' cappucino 'stencils' - they are exactly that, except you use chocolate powder instead of paint! Very easy really. There, another secret bites the dust..
