I am waiting at the counter For the man to pour the coffee

And he fills it only halfway And before I even argue

wlewa tylko do połowy, zanim nawet się wykłócę

He is looking out the window At somebody coming in

on już patrzy w stronę okna, bo do środka wchodzi ktoś.

"It is always nice to see you" Says the man behind the counter

"Zawsze miło jest cię widzieć" - mówi człowiek, ten zza baru,

To the woman who has come in She is shaking her umbrella

do kobiety, która weszła i strzepuje swój parasol,

And I look the other way As they are kissing their hellos

a ja patrzę w drugą stronę. Pocałunkiem się witają.

I'm pretending not to see them And instead I pour the milk

I udaję, że ich nie ma. Biorę sobie mleka ciut.

And I open up the paper There's a story of an actor

I otwieram mą gazetę - jest historia o aktorze,

Who had died while he was drinking It was no one I had heard of

który umarł gdy pił wódkę. Nigdy o nim nie słyszałam..

And I'm turning to the horoscope And looking for the funnies

I spoglądam w mój horoskop, potem szukam jakichś ...
