The man in 119 takes his tea all alone.
D G D G
Mornings we all rise, to wireless Verdi cries.
D G A
I'm hearing opera through the door.
G/B A
The souls of men and women,
D G
impassioned all.
D G
Their voices climb and fall
D G
battle trumpets call.
D G A
I fill the bath and climb inside,
singing
D G/B A

He will not touch their pastry
D G
but every day they bring him more.

Gold from the breakfast tray,
D G
I steal them all away
D G A
and then go eat them on the shore.

G/B A D G
I draw a jackal-headed woman in the sand
D G
sing of a lover&rsquo s fate
D G
sealed by jealous hate and

wash my hand in the sea.

With just three days more I&rsquo d have
D G A
just about learned the entire score

to Aida.
G A D G
Ho-oh-olidays must end, as you know.
D G
All is memory,
D G
taken home with me:
D G
the opera, the stolen tea,
D G
the sand drawing, the virgin sea, all
A
years ago.
