ฟังเพลงEverything Stops for Tea

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 factories may be 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

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 tea cup

Will always hit the spot

You remember Cleopatra

Had a date to meet

Mark Anthony 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

Kill 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 little 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 stops for tea
