I hope you'll stay and have a cup of tea Oh I hope you'll play my monopoly And I hope you'll do what the others do You say you'd love me to Make that cup of tea like I said I would Make that cup of tea like I know I should And not to think what the others think So that when you say you like me I'll be so overjoyed I'll take the unemployed I'll give them all a job They sure could use one, my God! Isn't it funny, no A million out of work is really so good for nothin' When you think that there should be jobs by the dozen But as often is the case Nothing ever seems to take place And not to think what the others think So that when I say I like you You'll say you like me too You'll say you like me too That's all
