T. U. S. A. Lyrics - Masters Of Reality

Now this is serious! if theres one thing in this country that really bothers me 

Is the inability of yanks to make a good cup of tea 

Instructions are printed on the teabag 

But either they can't read 

Or they think it's a gag 

Pour boiling water over the tea 

How simple and clear can the instructions be? 

They bring you a cup with a lemon slice 

And an unopened tea bag beside it (how nice) 

And a pot of water and it may be hot 

But boiling it isn't so tea you have not 

Why can't we 

Get our tea 

We need tea 

To set us free 

It's boiling water that brings out tea's flavor 

With a dash of milk you've a real brew to savor 

They drink luke brown water that looks like gnat pee 

And it's got nothing to do with a good cup of tea 

Pour boiling water over the tea 

How simple and clear 

Can the instructions be? 

Pour boiling water over the tea 

Pour boiling water over the tea
