What’s
my tipple
My
habit
My
obsession
My
addiction
My
`poison’
My
weakness
My
passion
My
affliction
My
non-narcotic remedy
A
tannic acid fix for me?
It’s
got to be
A
cup of tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea
The
20th letter of the alphabet
I
like it warm
I
like it wet
Although
it makes my body sweat
And
my bladder pee
(That’s
the 16th letter incidentally)
I
wanna soak my throat in a moat of
Tea,
tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea
Assam, Russian Caravan, Lapsang Souchong
Darjeeling, Earl Grey, Camomile,
Ceylon
I’m even compelled to lick my lips
For Typhoo, Tetley and PG Tips
My favourite bush
My favourite leaf
It sees me through my pain and grief
Although my dentist says it discolours my teeth
When the kettle boils at three
It’s time for tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea,
tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea
When
my nerves are on the edge
When
I’m gonna jump from that window ledge
I
don’t want a downer or an upper
But
my chosen beverage
A
good old fashioned cuppa
It’s
soothing, relaxing
Calming,
untaxing
What
liquid’s got me lyrically waxing
And
writing poetry?
Tea,
tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea
`T’
for tranquillity
Tea
in company
Tea
for two - you and me
Tea
takes the stress out of when we break up
Tea
is the best brew for when we make up
The
world would be a more peaceful place
If
tea was consumed by the whole human race
Where
you gonna dunk your digestive or Garibaldi?
In
your tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea
So
come back to mine for some you know what
Something
you love that’s steamy and hot
We
don’t have to share a bed
When
we can share a pot instead
As
we sidestep current thinking
With
the drink that we’ll be drinking
Boycott
the coffee revolution
For
this ingenious infusion
You’d
have to be a bit odd
To
say that honey was the Nectar of the Gods?
When
it’s tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea, tea
Cup
of cha
Rosy
Lee
Tea,
tea, tea, tea, tea
