Lyrics

Oh, the factories may be roaring
With a boomalacka, zoomalacka, whee
But there isn't any roar when the clock strikes four
Everything stops for tea
Oh, a lawyer in a courtroom
In the middle of an alimony plea
Has to stop and let '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
If you need a little pick-up, I'm sure a little teacup
Will always hit the spot
Oh, the soldiers may be fighting
In the trenches or a battleship at sea
But there isn't any war when the clock strikes four
Everything stops for tea
Written by: Al Goodhart, Al Hoffman, Maurice Sigler
