Taylor The Latte Boy

Kristin Chenoweth

There's a boy who works at Starbucks

Who is very inspirational

He is very inspirational

Because of many things.

I come in at 8:11

And he smiles and says, "how are you?".

When he smiles and says, "how are you?",

I could swear my heart grows wings



So today at 8:11,

I decided I should meet him.

I decided I should meet him in a proper formal way.

So today at 8:11

As he smiles and says, "how are you?"

I said "Fine, and my name's Carol",

And he softly answered, "hey".

And I said, "my name is Carol,

and thank you for the extra foam"

And he said his name was Taylor

Which provides the inspiration for this poem.



Taylor, the latte boy

Bring me java, bring me joy

Oh, Taylor, the latte boy

I love him, I love him, I love him



So I'd like to get my nerve up

To recite my poem musical.

He would like the fact it's musical

Because he plays guitar.

So today at 8:11

Taylor told me he was playing

In a band down in the village

In the basement of a bar.



And I saw him flip the lever

To prepare my double latte,

But for me he made it triple,

And he didn't think I knew.

But I saw him flip the lever,

And for me he made it triple,

And I knew that triple latte

Meant that Taylor loved me too.

I said, "what time are you playing,

and thank you for the extra skim".

He said, "keep the $3.55",

because this triple latte was on him.



Taylor, the latte boy

Bring me java, bring me joy

Oh, Taylor, the latte boy

I love him, I love him, I love him



So many years my heart has waited

Who'd have thought that love could be so caffienated?



Taylor, the latte boy

I love him, I love him, I love him.

I love him, I love him, I love him.
