The Brits did not know what to do
Told it were a drink just add boiling water
Simple as that, you would think, no problem!
Oh not so for the Brits!
They did as told, as they would!
After adding the scolding water, drain the water 
Tip it away, and eat the tea leaves!
Took a while, for the Brits to be educated on how

To enjoy a cupper proper like!
The rest is history!
Then came coffy, that's another story!
