Now this is serious! If theres one thing in this country that really bothers me

Is the inability of Yanks to make a good cup of tea

Instructions are printed on the teabag

But either they can't read

Or they think it's a gag



Pour boiling water over the tea

How simple and clear can the instructions be?



They bring you a cup with a lemon slice

And an unopened tea bag beside it (How nice)

And a pot of water and it may be hot

But boiling it isn't so tea you have not



Why CAN'T we

Get our tea

We need tea

To set us free



It's boiling water that brings out tea's flavor

With a dash of milk you've a real brew to savor

They drink luke brown water that looks like gnat pee

And it's got nothing to do with a good cup of tea



Pour boiling water over the tea

How simple and clear

Can the instructions be?



Pour boiling water over the tea
