the magnetic fields - the dolls' tea party lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1: claudia gonson]
at the dolls’ tea party, we fritter away
the long afternoon of a warmer summer day
with extended pinkies and pink cloisonné
cups and saucers and pots and a liberty tray

[chorus]
that’s why we take our tea
at the dolls’ tea party

[verse 2]
at the dolls’ tea party we twitter along
we prattle and tattle on who’s done whom wrong
on who’s in, who’s out, and who’s best at mah-jongg
oh, and where to buy fabulous things for a song

[chorus]
that’s why we take our tea
at the dolls’ tea party

[bridge]
but the cakes!
ah, the cakes are why everyone’s there
they’re not dietetic in any way
dare to try one and you’ll have a few pounds to spare
try another one
what do you care?

[verse 3]
at the dolls’, we’re all in our glittering best
there will be a test on who’s best and worst dressed
but we won’t have it said we’re fashion obsessed
we’re just prettier ladies than most of the rest

[chorus]
that’s why we take our tea
at the dolls’ tea party
