Taylor The Latte Boy - Original Version by Marcy & Zina

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 when he smiled and said "How are you?"
I said "Fine, and my names 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 Id like to get my nerve up
To recite my poem musical.
He would like the fact its 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 he smoothly flipped the lever to prepare my double latte,
But for me he made it triple! And he didnt 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

I used to be the kind of girl who'd run when love rushed toward her.
But 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
Oh Taylor the latte boy
I love him, I love him, I love him.

So many years my heart has waited,
Whod 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.

ENJOY!

It's fascinating hearing the original -- and, funny enough, realizing how much better Kristin made it with her delivery! No wonder so many people mistakenly believe she wrote it. Marcy and Zina are matchless in their talent, but Kristin is why the song is a classic.

Thanks for posting the real thing!

Love this! Does anyone know if these two also wrote the response song from Taylor's POV, or if it was done as a spoof? I'd love to find out who wrote that one.

I heard this years ago in college and Our class loved it soooo much. Those who say Kristen made this song, this was awesome before she sung it and was talked about way before then! x
