Ode to Tea

There is just one thing which I be stannin'

And that's milky brown tea, rich with tannin,

Boomers, millenials, Gen X and Gen Z too,

Can all appreciate a basic, boiled brew.

Fuck your bubbles, fuck your ice, fuck exotic loose leaf,

Just give me a Yorkshire teabag or i'm causing you grief,

Yes, it's staining my teeth and it's staining my mug,

But it's worth it all for this hot liquid hug.

Frst thing at breakfast, end with one during supper,

Any time of day you'll see me cradling a cuppa,

But leave it for two minutes, or maybe even three,

Cos I'll cut you up if you serve me pissweak tea.
