Only Tea

I have waited five years And today is the day I have spared no expense All that stands in my way Is a tiny little cottage With a tiny little table Filled with tiny Finger sandwiches I am not okay Only four hours left And there's too much to do I don't know what to wear What to say, how to stand When she's standing inside the foyer Of a tiny little cottage At a tiny little table Filled with tiny finger sandwiches Haha, drown me in the bay! Mr. Gatsby? It's seven o'clock in the morning Today's the day! Have you got everything you need In the shape of... of tea? Ah, I picked up, uh, some lemon cakes at Finn's At what? It's a... it's a delicatessen I hope that's okay? Yes, of course, of course They're fine Old sport Paper says the rain should pass by A quick summer storm Maybe there'll be a rainbow This is an omen, we need to cancel the whole thing! It is tea It's only tea No need for such commotion Soon you'll be Laughin', reminiscin' You will see It is tea It's only tea I'm gonna walk into the ocean You're gonna go and put your feet up And leave it all to me Of course, you're right I'll just go get changed and- Well, I didn't want to be a bother So I picked up a few tea things I'll bring those on by And some shrubbery And remember It's only tea! Put the oysters on ice (Oh-oh) Cut the lilacs and cake (Oh-oh) (Shuck the oysters) (Cut the cake) Bring them over at once (Oh-oh) This is all make or break (Oh-oh) (Bring them over) (Make or break) It's a simple chance encounter At a simple little table Filled with simple little sandwiches (Simple) This is a mistake (It's time for tea) (It's time for tea) Is it pinstripe or plaid? Is it two-piece or three? (Pinstripe, plaid) (What does he need?) Is it olive or Orval or brown? (Oh-oh, oh-oh) I want carefree and fun (Oh-oh) But not rodeo clown! (Oh-oh!) She should know that I mean business But I'm also being casual With teeny-tiny sandwiches I should go lie down (Itty-bitty, teeny-tiny) (Scrummy-yummy sandwiches!) It is tea It's only tea (Ah-ah-ah) It's not so complicated (It's not too complicated) Soon we'll be Sittin', sippin' Lost in memory It is tea, ha! (Lost in memory) It's only tea It's just been elevated (And not premeditated) With a pleasant bit of serendipity Will she see I've made my world (Ah-ah-ah) In the image of her dreams? The closer that I get (Ah-ah-ah-ah) The farther that she seems But there is no too much (Ah-ah-ah) There is no too far (Ah) There is only tea (Ah-ah-ah) And a rewrite of the stars! (Rewrite of the stars!) How do I look? Perfectly tailored Too tailored? I told them to keep it casual! It is tea It's only tea (Ah-ah-ah) No need for ostentation A little decoration Soon you'll be Laughin', reminiscin' You will see It is tea (It is) It is tea (Only tea) I'm going home! It's only- Wait, what was that? Daisy isn't coming I am going Thanks for helping! But I cannot wait all day Wait! She is late (Oh-oh) So I'm off (Oh-oh) To go scream in a jar! She's not late, Gatsby (Oh-oh) Stay where you are! (Oh-oh) In a tiny little cabin (Tea!) Where I'm quickly going manic (Tea!) A tiny little cabin (Tea!) This is not the time to panic (Tea!) A tiny little cabin In the hull of the Titanic There's the car! (It's time for tea!) Gastby?
