1
It was a café
2
It was a café on the westside
3
It was a café on
4
It was a café on the westside, midtown
5
It was a café on the westside, midtown
6
Said they had the best cap of cappucino around
7
So I stepped in, and I ordered a cup
8
Someone grabbed me by my throat and said, "Shut the fuck up!"
9
And I did, pronto, quick fast
10
How much longer would the torture last?
11
In the wrong place, at the wrong time
12
It was a drug sale, I could feel from behind
13
Death, it was gettin closer, right behind my back
14
Ready to attack
15
I got shot in a shoot-out, and then I died
16
I could feel it, I was on the other side
17
In between lives, I'm so confused
18
What do I do, oh, what do I do?
19
But was it really time for me to go?
20
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
21
Why, oh why?
22
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
23
Why, oh why?
24
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
25
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
26
But then I calmed down, I spotted some friends
27
That I knew in a past life, way back when
28
A couple had died in a drug world
29
And this one guy died fightin over his girl
30
Another died drivin while intoxicated
31
Why do people make livin so complicated?
32
But then I saw a girl, her name was Mary
33
Introduced to drugs by her boyfriend Harry
34
He sold crack to the kids on the uptown corners
35
A social worker named Hannah Smith tried to warn her
36
But she wouldn't listen, no one listens
37
I saw the light, I awakened, it was a dream
38
Man oh man, you shoulda heard me scream
39
So glad to be given - my life back
40
So good to be livin - or is dead better?
41
I didn't have to run from the bullets or drugs
42
And I didn't have to run from the murderers or thugs
43
I didn't have to worry about fallin from a plane
44
But at this café was death still callin my name?
45
Or did this café even exist?
46
And was my name just another on the death list?
47
I knew it couldn't happen, even though
48
On the bottom of my shirt was a spot of cappucino...
49
Cappucino
50
Cappucino
51
Bust it, to some of you that really don't know
52
I break it down to you, the word 'cappucino'
53
It's somewhat like coffee, then again not quite
54
It's creamy and smooth, and it goes down light
55
They charge you 3 dollars, you ask is it worth it?
56
But when you start drinkin... shit, it'd be workin
57
I'm hooked, well, I was, cause, yo, it's the best
58
But if everytime I drink I voyage through death
59
I leave it alone and just stick to tea
60
Cappucino was fly, but too fly for me
61
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
62
Cappucino
63
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
64
Cappucino
65
Why, oh why?
66
Why, oh why?
67
Why, oh why did I need cappucino?
68
Cappucino
69
Cappucino
70
Cappucino
71
Cappucino
72
It was a café on the westside
73
It was a café on the west...
74
It was a café on the westside
75
It was a café on the west...
76
Cappucino
