[intro:]
*ring ring*
*ring ring*
*ring ring*
h*llo, h*llo h*llo, yes, what? no, thanks very much
it’s awfully good of you but i’m much too busy today, yes?
yes, very very busy, yes, thank you…
*ring ring*
*ring ring*
*ring ring*
ahh, right. h*llo, h*llo, yes. no, no. that’s awfully kind, yes, but another day, i’m frightfully busy, yes?
thank you very much…
mr buchanan?
what is it?
i want you to listen to this song of mine…
a song?
yes, song!
must you?
i really must!
must you? to get it out of your system, i suppose…
i’ll play it for you!
yes, thanks awfully, yes…
yeah, haha, dear, dear, sounds like the one i heard yesterday!
well, it couldn’t have been!
i think it’s awfully good…
yes, what is it?

i can’t write, i’m sorry!
yeah, but i’m very busy…
yes, equally long way to go back too, isn’t it, yes?
*ring ring ring ring*
h*llo, h*llo, ooh, ooh, sorry, no…
tea? ah, that’s different, bless your heart!
[song:]
every nation in creation has its favorite drink
france is famous for its wine; it’s beer in germany
turkey has its coffee, and they serve it blacker than ink
russians go for vodka, and england loves its tea
oh, the fact’ries may be roaring
with a boomalacka zoomalacka whee
but there isn’t any roar when the clocks strike four
everything stops for tea
oh, a lawyer in the courtroom
in the middle of an alimony plea
has to stop and help ’em pour when the clock strikes four
everything stops for tea
it’s a very good english custom
though the weather be cold or hot
when you need a little pick*up, you’ll find a little teacup
will always hit the spot
you remember cleopatra
had a date to meet marc antony at three
when he came an hour late, she said you’ll have to wait
for everything stops for tea
oh, they may be playing football
and the crowd is yelling “k!ll the referee”
but no matter what the score, when the clock strikes four
everything stops for tea
oh, the golfer may be golfing
and is just about to make a hole*in*three
but it always gets them sore when the clock yells four
everything stops for tea
it’s a very good english custom
and a stimulant for the brain
when you feel a weary, a cup’ll make you cheery
and it’s cheaper than champagne
now i know just why franz schubert
didn’t finish his unfinished symphony
he might have written more but the clock struck four
and everything stopped for tea
