No. 2 - Song - Carraway and Chorus -
"When the boys come home to tea!"
| Carraway: | Hullo! little ladies, Now you can't complain, Here's your faithful Robin Fluttered home again. Aren't you glad to see me? I feel rather slack, Had no time for luncheon, Only just a snack, So in time for tea I've hurried back. When the boys come home to tea Ev'ry gal finds a pal And is pleased as she can be, Oh, you have to admit Things are livened up a bit When the boys come home to tea! |
| Chorus: | When the boys come home to tea Ev'ry gal finds a pal And is pleased as she can be, Oh, you have to admit Things are livened up a bit When the boys come home to tea! |
| Carraway: | I say, little ladies, I've been having fun Down at Kempton Park, Where all the gee-gees run. Did a bit of puntin'— Rotten on the whole— River puntin's better sport, Upon my soul. I say men who punt are "up the pole." When the boys come home to tea, Things they bring tied with string Which the girls are wild to see, No, it's not what you thought, It's some Scottish wine I've brought, Which the boys prefer to tea. |
| Chorus: | When the boys come home to tea Ev'ry gal finds a pal And is pleased as she can be, Oh, you have to admit Things are livened up a bit When the boys come home to tea! |
