Another, Another, Drink up, girl, Drink! There’s more to the art of tea parties Than you think, See, I’ve been doing this longer Than you’ve been alive, but The clock keeps on ticking, Do you think you'll survive? I’ve read the leaves, I know what they say, Tell me I’ll be stuck here ’Til my dying days, They should’ve put a warning Sign by the rabbit hole - In I came, but Out I can’t go, So, Drink up, girl, Drink! I have to continue, Creating new fortunes With every *** I brew, Really hoped that I could have Stuck my fate onto you, But you’ll be keeping your head, Ain’t nothing I can do, So, Another, Another, Drink up girl, Drink! It’s an endless tea party, superb, Don’t you think?! I know I’m stuck, but You’ve got nothing to fear; Though I have to warn you, We’re all mad here.
