I hope you'll stay and have a cup of tea
|
Oh I hope you'll play my monopoly
|
And I hope you'll do what the others do
|
You say you'd love me to
|
Make that cup of tea like I said I would
|
Make that cup of tea like I know I should
|
And not to think what the others think
|
So that when you say you like me
|
I'll be so overjoyed
|
I'll take the unemployed
|
I'll give them all a job
|
They sure could use one, my God!
|
Isn't it funny, no
|
A million out of work is really so good for nothin'
|
When you think that there should be jobs by the dozen
|
But as often is the case
|
Nothing ever seems to take place
|
And not to think what the others think
|
So that when I say I like you
|
You'll say you like me too
|
You'll say you like me too
|
That's all
|

I Hope You'll Stay
