Chris McParland - Builder's Strength Tea of Life Lyrics

It's raining in your life again and the forecast for your mood is gloomy
With outbreaks of frowning then some gnashing of teeth and a look so Stoney
I'd like to change your outlook with this biscuit analogy
You could be a chocolate Hob Nob instead of a boring Rich Tea

And while you wallow in your half-empty cup of strife
I'm going to dunk myself into the builders strength tea of life

I see the sun is shining but you say clouds are on the way
Your moaning and complaining gets me down all of the day
But if I have misread you and your mood is all aglow
If you're really happy inside it's time to let your face know

And while you wallow in your half-empty cup of strife
I'm going to dunk myself into the builders strength tea of life

Your health is fine you have no debt
And though it must have crossed her mind
Your wife has not killed you yet

So step on board my upbeat ship no contemplating mutiny
They say there are no problems only solution opportunities
I'd like to boost your happiness 'cos Heaven knows you need it
So buy a ukulele and get yourself a cat but don't forget to feed it

And while you wallow in your half-empty cup of strife
I'm going to dunk myself into the builders strength tea of life
Into the builders strength tea of life
Into the builders strength tea of life
