Will't never cool? Nay, never, never!

Tea, Tea, scalding Tea!

More milk; don't be an hour in bringing!

Heavens! That horrid bell is ringing!

"Take your seats, please!" Can't touch the Tea!

Cup to the carriage must not take;

Crockery may be lost, or broken;

Refreshment sharks are wide awake.

But—many a naughty word is spoken

O'er Tea, Tea, scalding Tea!
