letra de only tea - original broadway cast of the great gatsby - a new musical
[gatsby]
i have waited five years and today is the day
i have spared no expense, all that stands in my way
is a tiny little cottage with a tiny little table
filled with tiny finger sandwiches
(spoken)
i am not okay
(sung)
only four hours left and there’s too much to do
i don’t know what wear, what to say, how to stand when she’s standing inside the foyer
of a tiny little cottage, at a tiny little table
filled with tiny finger sandwiches, drown me in the bay
[nick, spoken]
mr. gatsby? it’s 7 o’clock in the morning
[gatsby, spoken]
today’s the day!
have you got everything you need
in the shapе of- of tea?
[nick, spoken]
i picked up some lеmon cakes at finn’s
[gatsby, spoken]
at what?
[nick, spoken]
it’s a delicatessen, i hope that’s okay
[gatsby, spoken]
yes, of course, of course, they’re fine
paper says the rain should pass by
[nick, spoken]
a quick summer storm. maybe there’ll be a rainbow!
[gatsby, spoken]
this is an omen! we need to cancel the whole thing!
[nick]
it is tea, it’s only tea
no need for such commotion
soon you’ll be laughin’, reminiscin’, you will see
it is tea, it’s only tea
[gatsby]
i’m gonna walk into the ocean
[nick]
you’re gonna go and put your feet up
and leave it all to me
[gatsby, spoken]
of course, you’re right. i’ll just go get changed and-
well, i didn’t want to be a bother, so i picked up a few tea things
i’ll bring those on by. and some shrubbery
[nick, spoken]
and remember, it’s only tea
[gatsby]
put the oysters on ice (oh, oh)
cut the lilacs and cake (oh, oh)
[ensemble]
shuck the oysters
cut the cake
[gatsby]
bring them over at once (oh, oh)
this is all make or break (oh, oh)
[ensemble]
bring them over
make or break
[gatsby]
it’s a
[gatsby & ensemble]
simple
[gatsby]
chance encounter at a
[gatsby & ensemble]
simple
[gatsby]
little table
filled with
[gatsby & ensemble]
simple
[gatsby]
little sandwiches (simple)
(spoken)
this is a mistake
[ensemble]
it’s time for tea
it’s time for tea
[gatsby]
is it pinstripe or plaid?
is it two-piece or three?
[ensemble]
pin or plaid, what does he need?
[gatsby]
is it olive or orval or brown? (oh, oh, oh, oh)
i want carefree and fun (oh, oh)
but not rodeo clown (oh, oh)
she should know that i mean business
while i’m also being casual
with teeny-tiny sandwiches
(spoken)
i should go lie down
[ensemble]

scrummy-yummy
sandwiches!
[gatsby]
it is tea, it’s only tea
[ensemble]
ah-ah-ah-ah
[gatsby]
it’s not so complicated
[ensemble]
it’s not too complicated at all
[gatsby]
soon we’ll be sittin’, sippin’, lost in memory
[ensemble]
lost in memory
[gatsby]
it is tea, it’s only tea
it’s just been elevated
[ensemble]
and not premeditated
[gatsby]
oh, what a pleasant bit of serendipity
will she see i’ve made my world (ah-ah-ah)
in the image of her dreams?
the closer that i get (ahh-ah-ah)
the farther that she seems
but there is no too much (ah-ah-ah)
there is no too far
there is only tea (ah-ah)
and the rewrite of the stars
[ensemble]

[gatsby, spoken]

[nick, spoken]
perfectly tailored
[gatsby, spoken]
too tailored? i told them to keep it casual!
[gatsby, nick, & ensemble]
it is tea, it’s only tea
[nick]
no need for ostentation (ah-ah-ah)
[gatsby]
a little decoration
[nick]

[gatsby & nick]
it is tea, it is tea
[gatsby, spoken]

[nick, spoken]

but i cannot wait all day
[nick]

so i’m off to go scream in a jar (oh, oh)
[nick, spoken]

[gatsby]
in a tiny little cabin (tea!)
