Proper Cup of Coffee

Lyrics

[ANA] A Sultan sat on his oriental mat In his harem, High Street, Persia (Persia) He took a sip of coffee, just a drip And he said to his servant, Kersia (Kersia) "Oh, curse ya, curse ya, Kersia! (Damn!) It's the awfullest coffee in Persia!" "Oh, what I want is a proper cuppa coffee Made from a proper copper coffee pot I might be off my dot But I want a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper pot Iron coffee pots (and tin coffee pots) They're no good to me If I can't have a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper coffee pot, I'll throw you in the sea!" (In ol' Baghdad, in ol' Baghdad, in ol' Baghdad) "In ol' Baghdad, in ol' Baghdad Very often I have had Cups of coffee by the dozen (Twelve!) And you all should Make my coffee just as good And without this blasted cussin'!" (Rats!) "Oh, curse ya, curse ya, Kersia! It's the awfullest coffee in Persia!" "Oh, what I want is a proper cuppa coffee Made from a proper copper coffee pot I might be off my dot But I wanna proper cuppa coffee from a proper coffee pot Iron coffee pots (and tin coffee pots) They're no good to me If I can't have a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper coffee pot, I'll have a cuppa tea" [MAN, spoken] Balls! [Sound of phone ringing.] [OPERATOR, spoken] Murray Hill 3311, how may I direct your call? [ANA, spoken] I need you to direct me to the police! I was just served coffee in a tin pot! [OPERATOR, spoken] Stay calm, Madam! I'll send an officer there right away, don't do anything rash! [MAN, spoken] I thought you liked drain-brewed coffee? [ANA, spoken] I SAID A PROPER CUP OF COFFEE! [Sounds of rapid gunfire.] [ANA, spoken] Sorry, the doctor says caffeine makes me tense (sung) Oh, curse ya, curse ya, curse ya (Balls!) It's the awfullest coffee in Persia! Oh, what I want is a proper cuppa coffee Made from a proper copper coffee pot I might be off my dot But I wanna proper cuppa coffee from a proper coffee pot Iron coffee pots (and tin coffee pots) They're no good to me If I can't have a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper Coffee pot, I'll have a cuppa tea (I want a proper cuppa coffee!) I want a proper cuppa coffee! (A proper cuppa coffee!) I want a proper cuppa coffee! I'm a little percolator, short and stout When I get all percolated pour me out 1-2-3-4! All I want is a proper cuppa coffee Made from a proper copper coffee pot I might be off my nut But I wanna proper cuppa coffee from a proper coffee pot Iron coffee pots and tin coffee pots They're no good to me If I can't have a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper Coffee pot, I'll have a cuppa tea If I can't have a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper Coffee pot, I'll have a cuppa tea If I can't have a proper cuppa coffee from a proper copper Coffee pot, I will have a scotch
