Tea and Biscuits

Time again to clamber aboard the soul-fired train of musical memories with your drivers Tim and Damian. This week, the mates present ‘Tea and Biscuits’, a song that draws upon the stop-frame joys of Trumptonshire and tabloids. Along the scenic route, they’ll discuss life, first jobs, and Tim’s close and lasting relationship with Billy Bragg (almost). It’s another unmissable ride – and you’ll get there in 45 minutes (or if you can’t then you can claim a ticket refund via a cunningly complex online process). LYRICS:Tea and Biscuitswords and music by Damian Scott Tea and biscuits as you curse into your cupBeer and grumbling as you swear your time is upWords of wisdom as you put the world to rightsThe morning paper to see who won the fightTen o’clock and never lateYou’re waiting for the early morning breakAnd the papers will tell you what’s going on in the world Tea and biscuits as you toast the bride[Papers, read all about it in the papers]A royal wedding for the folks insideTea and biscuits as the hooter blows[Papers, read all about it in the papers]Pull up your trousers and wipe your nose The Sun or Mirror left by the toilet seatSmiling Sam is there to make your day completeA perfect figure and a page of misspelt wordsShe’s sitting pretty in her sealskin and her fursTen o’clock and never lateYou’re waiting for the early morning breakAnd the papers will tell you what’s going on in the world Tea and biscuits as you toast the bride[Papers, read all about it in the papers]A royal wedding for the folks insideTea and biscuits as the hooter blows[Papers, read all about it in the papers]Pull up your trousers and wipe your nose Like or lump it as you contemplate your sharesIt’s cake or crumpet for the chaps that work upstairsTen o’clock and never lateYou’re waiting for the early morning breakAnd the papers will tell you what’s going on in the world Tea and biscuits as you toast the bride[Papers, read all about it in the papers]A royal wedding for the folks insideTea and biscuits as the hooter blows[Papers, read all about it in the papers]Pull up your trousers and wipe your nose
