Joined Dec 10, 2008 Messages 971 Reaction score 570 I've figured out most euphemisms prevalent in blues and other forms of popular music. "Coffee" and "tea" still stumps me. I assume that these are also sexual in nature - as are most of the euphemisms. Anyone know? If the answer is too racy for this forum, I understand. wire-n-wood

Both can be short form for drugs as well.... Tea is often MJ. Edit to add: References -- I did undergrad/graduate work in English literature and critical theory, plus I own a coffee company. Turi

So he's saying he wakes up in the morning and has a little cocaine with his OJ? Is "juice" even juice anymore? Where does it end? Is he even really waking up in the morning? I know Bruce gets up late in the evening, maybe it's a thing. TwoTubMan

I wasn't interpreting his lyrics - just calling him a coke fiend. Who knows what Welshmen are saying. Nobody understands them in Wales even. Source: Went to Seaworld once. Dasein

I'd say that when they named the band Squeeze they were not talking about the effects of the economy. Turi
