Rapscallion - Cup Of Brown Joy (Rapscallion Infusion) [feat. Professor Elemental]

I need a cup of the brown stuff, the shade of an acorn
Made from the same source that I take my cakes from
Using a teapot, a mug or fine china
Been hooked up to IV's for a constant supply
A drip for my urges might verge on perverted
But for earthy brown tea, I'm certain it's worth it
With Sherpas who work herds and use a fresh fountain
I've discerned brews from Peruvian mountains
I've slurped up a cuppa from an elephant's trunk
With a couple of monks who utterly stunk
I've had bourbons with sultans and creams with queens
And I've bathed in Earl Grey--I'm really that keen
And missionaries dismiss me for my single epiphany
The diff between him and me is a simple sip of British tea
So when times are hard and life is rough
You can stick the kettle on and find me a cup
Now, when I say Earl Grey, you say Yes please
Earl Grey, Yes, please
Earl Grey,Yes, please
When I say Assam, you say lovely
Assam, Lovely
Assam, Lovely
When I say Ooh, you say long
Ooh, long
Ooh, long
Ooh, long
I've been around the world in eighty brews, to see the place it takes me to
To make a brew that tastes like the cream cakes made by angels do
I'm not the same as you, get shaky but aim
To swig amazing fluids but don't make it the same
Now, using fine leaves picked by pretty maidens
In a bag knitted by a seamstress who lives in Copenhagen
Brewed up in a pot made of semi-precious metal
Let the blessed contents settle in my very special kettle
Now, when I say Cey, you say lon
Cey, on
Cey, lon
When I say Herbal, you say No, thanks
Herbal, no thanks
Herbal, no thanks
If you're tired of tea then you're tired of life
I'm madder than a hatter and it fires my mic
Lavish and attractive, millions of likes
Liken to me to Earl Grey, Assam, or Ginger
Lapsang souchong, raise your pinkie finger!
Keep your sodding coffee in a proper copper coffee pot
And spot me lobbing teapots at your poncy rotten coffee shop
Coffee clots, lost the plot, lost the plot, sodding off
Need some caffeine tannin, and a Battenberg to top it off
Now, when I say Earl Grey, you say yes, please
Earl Grey, yes please
Earl Grey, yes please
When I say Heavy, You say metal
Heavy, Metal
Heavy, Metal
When I say Rap, you say scallion
Rap, Scallion
Rap, Scallion
When I say ooh, you say Ahh
Ooh, Ahh
Ooh, Ahhhhh
I need a cup of the brown stuff
Shade of an acorn
Made warm from the same source
That I take my cakes from
I need a cup of the brown stuff
Shade of an acorn
Made warm from the same source
That I take my cakes from
