歌词
D'accord, voici une version étendue avec plus de couplets et de refrains :
[Verse 1]
Brits sipping tea, rain falling in the park (oh-yeah)
With their accents and umbrellas, they make their mark (ooh-wee)
But don't be fooled by their politeness and their grace (oh-no)
They might just lead you on a merry chase (scat-da-bu-di-bu-da-bu-ba)
[Verse 2]
They're cricket players, talking 'bout the weather all day (scat-di-da-bu-di-bu-di-da)
But their intentions, well, they're never quite in play (da-bu-di-bu-ba)
With a cheerio and a smile, they'll lure you in with ease (oh-yeah)
But behind those tweed jackets, secrets they will seize (oh-no)
[Chorus]
Beware of the Englishmen and their tea (scat-bu-di-bu-da-bu-di-bu-ba)
They'll charm your socks off, then they'll set you free (oh-wee)
Don't fall for their manners and their stiff upper lips (scat-da-bu-di-bu-di-ba)
Their enigmatic ways will leave you in eclipse (scat-bu-di-di-da-bu-di-bu-ba)
[Verse 3]
They're poets and playwrights, masters of the word (scat-di-da-bu-di-bu-di-da)
But their intentions, oh, they're rarely ever heard (da-bu-di-bu-ba)
With a "how'd you do" and a nod, they'll spin tales of old (oh-yeah)
But beware the hidden stories, yet to be told (oh-no)
[Verse 4]
They're tea connoisseurs, with biscuits on the tray (scat-di-da-bu-di-bu-di-da)
But their motives, well, they're never quite on display (da-bu-di-bu-ba)
With a spot of tea and a wink, they'll draw you near (oh-yeah)
But beneath those top hats, mysteries appear (oh-no)
[Chorus]
Beware of the Englishmen and their tea (scat-bu-di-bu-da-bu-di-bu-ba)
They'll charm your socks off, then they'll set you free (oh-wee)
Don't fall for their manners and their stiff upper lips (scat-da-bu-di-bu-di-ba)
Their enigmatic ways will leave you in eclipse (scat-bu-di-di-da-bu-di-bu-ba)
[End]
