[Verse] Tea is steaming in the air Finger sandwiches we prepare Cucumber slices everywhere Smoked salmon's shining flair [Verse 2] Ham and mustard spread so right Coronation chicken light Egg mayo with cress in sight Afternoon tea pure delight [Chorus] Scones and cakes we'll share today Pastries take our breath away Dainty foods come out to play British afternoon hurrah yay [Verse 3] Jam and cream atop the scones Taking selfies on our phones Perfect manners all are shown In the garden we have grown [Bridge] Teapots clink and laughter's near Every cup brings out good cheer Moments with friends we hold dear Afternoon tea time my dear [Chorus] Scones and cakes we'll share today Pastries take our breath away Dainty foods come out to play British afternoon hurrah yay
