Şarkı sözleri

[Verse 1]
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
Russian goes for vodka, England loves it's tea
[Verse 2]
Oh, the factory maybe roaring with a boom-a-lacka, zoom-a-lacka-wee
But there isn't any roar when the clock strikes four
Everything stops for tea
[Verse 3]
You're a lawyer in the middle of the courtroom
In the middle of an alimony fee
Has to stop and help the poor when the clock strikes four
Everything stops for tea
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
You'll remember Cleopatra, she had a date with Mark Anthony at three
But he came an hour late, she said you'll have to wait
'Cause everything stops for tea
[Verse 6]
Another maybe playing football, and the crowd is shouting,
"Kill the referee"
But no matter what the score, when the clock strikes four
Everything stops for tea
[Verse 7]
Now the golfer may be golfing, and is just about to make a hole in three
It always gets him saw when the clock strikes four
'Cause everything stops for tea
[Verse 8]
It's a very good English custom, and a stimulant for the brain
When you feel a little weary, a cup will make you cheery
And it's cheaper than champagne
[Verse 9]
Now I know just why Franz Schubert didn't finish his unfinished symphony
He would've written more but the clock struck four
And everything stops for tea
