[Dorcas:] In frill and feather spic and span,
A gallant is asking for thee;
I told him to go,
But he wouldn't take "no"-
Oh, he is such a nice young man!
[Three Girls:] We told him to go,
But he wouldn't take "no"-
Oh, he is such a nice young man!
[Rupert:] Oh yes, I know that nice young man
He travels in coffee and tea;
And if you're not in,
Leaves behind him a tin
Or a packet of bad Bohea.
[Chorus:] Oh, we all of us know that nice young man
He travels in coffee and tea;
And if you're not in,
Leaves behind him a tin
Or a packet of bad Bohea,
of bad Bohea,
of bad Bohea.

[Dorcas:] Oh, sir, he's such a handsome youth!
The nicest I ever did see!
To tell thee the truth
I have never seen youth,
Who was quite such a youth as he!
[Three Girls:] To tell thee the truth
We have never seen youth,
Who was quite such a youth as he!
[Rupert:] Oh yes, I know this self-same youth!
He dabbles a bit in the arts;
He wants you to hire
What you'll never require,
In a series of monthly parts.
[Chorus:] He is partial to hours both dark and late,
He has a quick eye for the spoons,
And long will he wait
With his foot in the gate,
In the dusk of the afternoons,
the afternoons,
the afternoons.
