Ray Davies - Have a Cuppa Tea lyrics

Granny's always ravin' and rantin' And she's always puffin' and pantin' And she's always screaming and shouting And she's always brewing up tea Grandpappy's never late for his dinner 'Cause he loves his leg of beef And he washes it down with a brandy And a fresh made pot of tea Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea If you feel a bit under the weather If you feel a little bit peeved Take granny's stand-by potion For any old cough or wheeze It's a cure for hepatitis, it's a cure for chronic insomnia It's a cure for tonsilitis and for water on the knee Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea

Tea in the morning, tea in the evening, tea at supper time You get tea when it's raining, tea when it's snowing Tea when the weather's fine You get tea as a mid-day stimulant You get tea with your afternoon tea For any old ailment or disease For Christ sake, have a cuppa tea Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea Whatever the situation, whatever the race or creed Tea knows no segregation, no cla** nor pedigree It knows no motivations, no sect or organisation It knows no one religion, nor political belief Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Rosie Lea
