Now this is serious! if there's one thing in this country that really bothers me Is the inability of yanks to make a good cup of tea Instructions are printed on the teabag But either they can't read Or they think it's a gag

Pour boiling water over the tea How simple and clear can the instructions be?

They bring you a cup with a lemon slice And an unopened tea bag beside it (how nice) And a pot of water and it may be hot But boiling it isn't so tea you have not

Why can't we Get our tea We need tea To set us free

It's boiling water that brings out tea's flavor With a dash of milk you've a real brew to savor They drink luke brown water that looks like gnat pee And it's got nothing to do with a good cup of tea

Pour boiling water over the tea How simple and clear Can the instructions be?
