[Victoria (Hadland)]
I love to be a British queen
I am Victoria, you see
Now where's my British butler
With my British cup of tea?

[Butler (Baynton)]
Tea is not from Britain, ma'am
From India it was brought
Yes, for your cuppa, thousands died
And many wars were fought

[Victoria]
British things, my British things
It seems that tea is not
British things, my British things

[Butler]
Can I sweeten it a jot?

[Victoria]
Do tell me sugar's British though

[Butler]
No, it's Caribbean imported
For sugar in your cup of tea
Slavery's been supported
I know it's wrong, your majesty
But slaves in Africa
Worked hard in fields of sugar cane
To sweeten up your char
