The Fiery Furnaces

The Fiery Furnaces - Bitter Tea lyrics

I've got a special category business

down by the Multifunctional Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Rollerblade Rink--

down by the Home of Bitter Tea.

Bitter, bitter, bitter tea;

bitter bitter, bitter tea.

I've seen you slinking off of snake alley.

Why not come up through the hall of butterflies

and past Lane 170

into our Dragon Protector Layout

and try some bitter tea?

Bitter, bitter, bitter tea;

bitter bitter, bitter tea.

On the 13th day of the 5th lunar month

Outside a hot spring bath

the old banyan tree looked down on me

Aren't you curious?

Aren't you curious?

A little curious,

about what the osmanthus blossoms taste like?

I think you're curious-

yes, you're curious-

a little curious

about what the osmanthus blossoms taste like

with a cup of bitter tea.

Bitter, bitter, bitter tea;

bitter bitter, bitter tea.

On the 13th day of the 5th lunar month

Outside a hot spring bath

the old banyan tree looked down on me

I am a crazy crane;

I lost my true love in the rain

I am a crazy crane;

I lost my true love in the rain
