lyrics

In a world that moves so fast
We need vitalizing fuel so we can last
There's a look in your eye
A nod, a wink or a glance
It's that time again, the time to turn on the taps
The water starts to bubble, there's a rumbling sound
It's an oasis in time with friends picked out from the crowd
What have you been doing?
How have you passed the day?
There's a lot more to drink and so much more to say

Now I think it's time for another Tetley
A PG Tips or a chai that's slightly spicy
In a mug reflecting my personality
Whether it's to reach an answer you can't see
To get you through university
We're moving through a life
With so much varietea

Can you taste that subtle hint?
Notice the invigorating peppermint
What have you been doing? It has been a while
But tell me pretty quick I've had a chamomile
I'm sorry for this, usually there's no rush
But I had so many breaks I used up all of my redbush
Was gonna buy some more but there was no time today
I had to make it through on cups of Earl Grey
Early Grey

Now I think it's time for another Tetley
A PG Tips or a chai that's slightly spicy
In a mug reflecting aspects of my history
Whether it's to reach an answer you can't see
To get you through your PhD
We're moving through a life
With so much varietea

When there's drifting certainty
About the state of my sanity
When it's a struggle and we try to just pull through
Do you take milk or sugar or something more crazy?
Please stick within the bounds of suitability
Let's sit down and I'll have a brew with you

Now I think it's time for another Tetley
A PG Tips or a chai that's slightly spicy
In a mug reflecting aspects of my history
Whether it's to reach an answer you can't see
Sitting down with a friend that means a lot to me
We're moving through a life
With so much varietea

It's the Varietea of Life
