Kristin Chenoweth Taylor (the Latte Boy) Lyrics

Taylor (the Latte Boy) Lyrics

There's a boy who works at Starbucks 

Who is very inspirational. 

He is very inspirational because of many things. 



I walk 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 when he smiled and said "How are you?" 

I said "Fine, and my name’s Carol," 

And he softly answered, "Hey." 

And I told him "My name’s 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! 

Taylor the latte boy, 

I love him, I love him, I love him… 



Well 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. 

And today at 8:11, Taylor told me he was playing 

With a band down in the village in the basement of a bar.



As he smoothly flipped 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 the 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! 

Taylor the latte boy, 

I love him, I love him, I love him… 



I used to be the kind of girl 

Who’d run when love rushed toward her. 

Till finally a voice whispered, "Love can be yours, 

If you step up to the counter and order. 



Taylor the latte boy, 

Bring me java, bring me joy! 

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 caffeinated? 

Taylor, the latte boy, 

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

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