It’s a lovely smell, at least it is to me. We’ll call it saltwater tea! Yes, I love saltwater tea! Quietly in disguise, Now the job is all done; We’ll cut King George down to size We worked hard, but it was fun. When we dump his shipments all into the sea. And we showed the world our longing to be free Hope he likes salt water tea. When we made saltwater tea All around, everywhere,
