Some people get confused, you know
About the names of meals
If you say lunch then dinner 
I must lodge an appeal
If you’re from the South, you say it wrong
You’re incorrect you see
It’s not breakfast lunch and dinner.
It’s breakfast dinner tea  

Breakfast dinner tea
Let’s all say it the right way
Breakfast dinner tea
Come sing along wi’ me
Lunch is just for Southerners 
On that we can agree
'Cause the three square meals you have each day
Are breakfast dinner tea

That's right!

If you have lunch not dinner then
You really are a fool
'Cause each of us had dinner ladies
When we were at school  
You’re either right or wrong you know
The topic’s binary
It’s not breakfast lunch and dinner
It’s breakfast, dinner, tea 

Breakfast dinner tea
Let’s all say it the right way
Breakfast dinner tea
Come sing along wi’ me
Lunch is just for Southerners 
On that we can agree
'Cause the three square meals you have each day
Are breakfast dinner tea

Those are the names of your three meals
Remember what I said
And supper’s something that you have
Before you go to bed  
Please understand, it’s common sense
You don’t need a degree
It’s not breakfast lunch and dinner
It’s breakfast  dinner  tea  
 
Breakfast dinner tea
Let’s all say it the right way
Breakfast dinner tea
Come sing along wi’ me
Lunch is just for Southerners 
On that we can agree
'Cause the three square meals you have each day
Are breakfast dinner tea
The only thing that you should say is 
Breakfast dinner tea
