A Cup of Tea

[Verse 1]
Long ago the British learned the secret
To being friendly when you disagree
From the garden to the clean
How do they stay serene?
They sit down for a cup of tea

[Verse 2]
In Japan they have a ceremony
To make a friend out of your enemy
To further that nice goal
They drink from the same bowl
When they sit down
For a cup of tea

[Bridge]
Now you may wonder
"Nancy, did you make all this up?
What quarrels have you ended
With just teacakes and a cup?"
Haha, Well...

[Verse 3]
You all know my little sister JoJo
Just try to pick a film with her to see
I suggest something with class
But she just wants a laugh and
Oh, there's a way we can agree

[Verse 4]
If I lay out china and some treats like so
We'll be sure to compromise and watch a nature show
People always work it out
And find their common ground
When they sit down for a cup of tea
So sit down, for a cup of tea
