Lyrics:

Shall I return at six o'clock as usual my lady ?
Yes James, that would be lovely

Mrs. Thursday came to tea at the same locality
as she did last week, and the week before.
There was a band who were grand on the stand playing.
And all the people talked and talked and talked and talked.
Have you heard that misses Payne is expecting once again.
How man' is that now ?
I think it's seven. Seven? Seven.
And the band who were grand on the stand kept on playing.
And all the people talked and talked and talked and talked.
And the band who were grand on the stand kept on playing.
And all the people talked and talked and talked and talked.
Who's that knockin at the door ?
It's the reverend of the law, he's late as usual, but just in time,
to hear the band who were grand on the stand, keep on playing.
And all the people talked and talked and talked and talked.
Tea and cottage on the lawn, Mrs. Thurday gives a yawn and thinks sadly.
It's time to go but the band who were grand on the stand kept on playing.
And all the people talked and talked and talked and talked.
Talked and talked and talked etc. etc.
