You're all welcome to My Tea Party, but be careful not to spill anything on the rug

Hold your cup with one hand the saucer with the other, take only small sips

Thinking of one another as family more than friends, sitting around a table, tapping their fingers on the table

Using etiquette as a forte please use the silver not your lady fingers. Use your words not always your eyes staring into mine

Like I'm about to have a heart-attack, skittish women running around like lost ballerinas without their petite toes


Cuz that's how it sometimes feels being alone at my own tea party, My Tea Party, Party

Sitting around in a cold room, watching the skittish hearts flutter by, why can't I do things right

If you'll only give me a chance before I become skittish like the others out there, out there all lonely dancing in dusk's light

Counting to 100 if that's how long it would last, steam coming out of the glass tea-pot, pouring the bitter liquid


Mixed with sugar in my cup that's cracking from the end to the top, like me falling down cracking up like a glass vase
Holding flowers that had just rotted, dried up crumbling crumpets so dry that it makes your mouth feel dry just looking at it

Inject me now with the sedative, help me relax from the sugar overdose. Making my blood pressure go higher up

Even if I was sensitive to your words, you would have a heart-attack from my apology topped with sugar seeping in your heart


You're all welcome to My Tea Party, but be careful not to spill anything on the rug

Hold your cup with one hand the saucer with the other, take only small sips

Thinking of one another as family more than friends, sitting around a table, tapping their fingers on the table

Using etiquette as a forte please use the silver not your lady fingers. Use your words not always your eyes staring into mine

Like I'm about to have a heart-attack, skittish women running around like lost ballerinas without their petite toes


You're smiles reflecting off the China, your eyes looking at something else besides my shallow eyes

Finally not getting me nervous staring back on purpose, my arteries not being clogged up

The sedative running thru my veins, making me feel tired. My eyes closing but my heart seeing you leaving me behind

So please turn around, please make a sound, just something to wake me up, so my heart won't give out, my heart won't give out on me
