Tea for Two Songtext
von Joe Mooney

Do you long for oolong
Like I long for oolong, baby?
Do you long for oolong
Like I long for oolong, baby?

Oh man, what a boot
From a long, tender shoot of oolong

Can you imagine me
With you upon my knee

Tea for two and two for tea
Me for you and you for me
Alone, dear

There′ll be nobody near us
To see or to hear us
No relations on weekend vacations
We won't have it known
We own a telephone
Dawn will break and you′ll awake


Start to bake sugar cake
Just for me to take
So all the boys can see, dear
We will raise a family
With a boy for you, a girl for me

Can't you see how happy we will be?

Are you gone on Ceylon
Like I'm gone on Ceylon, baby?
Are you gone on Ceylon
Like I′m gone on Ceylon, baby?

Oh man, what a boot
From a long, tender shoot of Ceylon

Flash 1983
Seen chick still on his knee
She goes for he
But he′s up to his eyeballs in tea balls
And there's been nobody near ′em
To see or to hear 'em
No relations on weekend vacations


They′ve never been known
To answer that telephone
Dawn breaks, she awakes
Still bakes those knockout cakes
They've never been tasted
But they′re not wasted
They're so pretty to see
They started to raise a family
But the kids left home at the age of three
Singing, "Oolong, too much of that oolong"

And now since the kids departed
The family is right where it started

Back to tea for two
