Tim Hawkins is known for being the top Christian comedian in the country right now. Tim loves making people laugh with his standup routines and his hilarious parody songs. Recently, Tim wrote a parody of the Simon & Garfunkel song “Sounds of Silence” called “Sounds of Starbucks,” and it could not be any funnier!
In the song, Tim pokes fun at just how obsessed our society is with Starbucks.
Hello coffee, my old friend.
I’ve come to order you, again.
I hear the grinding of espresso beans.
I need a double shot of pure caffeine.
And the Indie-band on the speakers soothes my brain
So I’ll remain
Within the sounds of Starbucks.
In the song, Tim goes on to say that he tried to brew his own coffee at home, but that he got lonely and missed the morning rush of people as he relaxed in a cushy leather chair. That’s why he headed back to Starbucks, but chaos ensued when the coffee shop ran out of cream.
While a Bible study prayed
Baristas formed a barricade
The manager cried out a warning
To the angry mob that was forming
And he said I checked Google Maps
There’s another one across the street
So we stampede
And return to the sounds of Starbucks.
Any coffee lover can certainly picture this scene in real life! This kind of hilarious humor is exactly why Tim is one of the most popular comedians around today.
