Adrian Thaws (born January 27, 1968), better known as Tricky, is an English rapper and musician important in the trip hop and British music scene (despite loathing the "trip hop" tag). He is noted for a whispering lyrical style that is half-rapped, half-sung. As a producer and a musician he is noted for having an aversion to perfection preferring to build up a dark, rich and layered sound. Culturally, Tricky bridges white and black Britain particularly in his fusion of rock and hip-hop, high art and pop culture. He has worked together with Massive Attackand appeared in the movie The Fifth Element as well as the music video for Parabola by Tool.

Black Coffee Lyrics
Tricky
One, one, two, one, one, two,
Move over, move over, yeah you heard what I said, move over.
I feel so lonely, havent slept a wink.
I walk the floor, and watch the door.
And in between I drink black coffee.
Loves a hand-me-down brew.
I never know why sunday in this weekday brew?
Im talking to the shadows, one oclock till four,
And lord how slow the moments go.
All I do is pour black coffee.
Since the blues caught my eye,
Im hanging out on monday,
But sunday dreams too dry
They say a man is born to go alone
And a woman is born to weep and fret
To stay at home and drown her past regrets
In coffee and cigarettes.
And moody all the morning, moody all night.
And in between I drink black coffee.
Black coffee.
