Kaiser Chiefs: "Seventeen Cups" Lyrics

Have a cup of tea to pass the time

It doesn't pass enough so I have nine

And everything to do is done for you

And there is nothing left for me outside this room

And it's 'cause secretly I know

I'll be home soon

But that's true

Have another cup to celebrate

It doesn't cheer me up so I have eight

Put my stuff in the washing machine

And you know when it goes in dirty

It comes out clean

There's not much on the TV this afternoon

Except Boone

In my room there's not a lot to do

So if I let you in please don't touch anything

And in my room there isn't much to do

So if I let you in

Don't touch a thing

And everything to do is done for you

And there is nothing left for me outside this room

And you know nothing in this world compares to you

And there is nothing left for you outside this room

And it's like everything you do is done for you

And there is nothing left for me outside this room

And you know nothing in this world compares to you

And there is nothing left for you outside this room

La la la, la la la la la, la la la...
