Ten black pinstripe suits stand in a row
Ten ties, ten pairs of shiny black shoes
Waiting for ten cups of coffee.
One green apron behind the counter
Wipes sweat away and lets out a sigh
As ten suits take their ten cups of coffee
And drink them in ten BMWs
On the way to ten corporate jobs.
Ten black pinstripe suits forget about
The green apron
Until the next morning, when they
Will come back again
To wait in line for coffee
And, as always, they will not leave a tip.
