Some people just adore martinis
Others enjoy iced tea
In Venice they all go for Bellinis
But coffee, that's for me

I've tasted every kind of brew
At every coffee shop
Some were good and some were great
But this one was the top

[Chorus]
There was nothing like the coffee at the Automat
Its aroma and its flavor was supreme
From a silver dolphin spout, the coffee came right out
Not to mention at the end a little spurt of cream

There was nothing like the coffee at the Automat
Nothing fancy or pretentious like today
You have to understand they had no latte grande
No quizzical baristas in your way

There was nothing like the coffee at the Automat
You would find a seat hang up your coat and hat
And for just a shiny nickel your taste buds you could tickle
With that wonderful, magnificent, unbelievable
Awesome coffee at the Automat
