Tea Party

Lyrics for Tea Party

Roll it up tuck it tight Simmer down find a light You're alone who's alone In the middle of the night Peep the stars now in sight It's alright it's all nice Drink with spirits and the sprites It's all fine it's all right Roll it up tuck it tight Simmer down find a light You're alone who's alone In the middle of the night Peep the stars now in sight It's alright it's all nice Drink with spirits and the sprites It's all fine it's all right Roll it up tuck it tight Simmer down find a light You're alone who's alone In the middle of the night Peep the stars now in sight It's alright it's all nice Drink with spirits and the sprites It's all fine it's all right Tea party on the red planet Bought some red and my best manners Met my fears with a treasure chest Of dry gin and some Guinness tins Said hello to the Mad Hatter, the Dormouse and the Spring Rabbit All were gathered in limbo land The journey rendered me quite famished Acquiescent they all agreed to crack the loot and go ham at it After double dozen cups of red We're solving riddles they posed on Alice She ain't never been to office squats You can rave on a writing desk if the stuff hasn't yet touched your balance Guess she fell in holes on a regs Cheshire grinning and freshly dressed In checkered prints with the shins padded The madman hopped upon the banquet And threw his limbs in seizured style From up he rose off the red planet Swinging limbs and singing to us Something close among these lines He said I've nowhere left to find In me a sense of peace Come help me rid this mind of mine So I can rest at ease And headless off he flew and left us in our limbo palace Woosh, poof, gone, vanished! One less madman in our house To help us sing this ballad Roll it up tuck it tight Simmer down find a light You're alone who's alone In the middle of the night Peep the stars now in sight It's alright it's all nice Drink with spirits and the sprites It's all fine it's all right Roll it up tuck it tight Simmer down find a light You're alone who's alone In the middle of the night Peep the stars now in sight It's alright it's all nice Drink with spirits and the sprites It's all fine it's all right We're all holding hands like Mitz I va au bar for cigs Rabbits cutting K for nine and sniffs the hair of dog that bit Racked like Ramsay's forehead julienne lines of Marco Pierre then dips Snowman's walking in the air we gaze cigs dangling from our lips Off he flies and tells us this (I sniff) You sniff (I sniff) He hissed I sniff a gazillion stars and speed up till I'm ahead of tocks and ticks Till I'm ahead of toxic time where pendulum clocks will nick my teeth Like all of the souls I loved to bits He said adieu and went amiss Who's the next one on our list Who's it left come do your bit Here the dormouse crept from out a tea cup panicked in a fit I asked her what she wanted rid of she replied with puckered lips Darkness coming stark and thick Turns my spine into a stick So I ask the moon to blind me So I can't see darkness lit Hearing this the moon did more and blitzed her eyes Till hollow holes of coal were left To guide our mouse through her abyss Thus my last fear left me lonely in this purgatory bliss Singing this Roll it up tuck it tight Simmer down find a light I'm alone I'm alone In the middle of the night Now I'm young forever mindless and I'm blinded from my fright Guess the time has come for kitten to go out without a fight I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone
