Walter Martin - Charles Rennie Mackintosh lyrics

[Verse 1] Charles Rennie Mackintosh Let's have another cuppa tea before you wander off Into the cold old Glasgow streets Where the rain don't never stop [Verse 2] Charles Rennie Mackintosh As the teapot steeps, I admire every line And all the high back chairs go “squeak” And the old tea kettles whine [Bridge] I find myself at home, my friend In a land that isn't mine And oh, you're a wise old man, I know And oh, 'cause when you built that Glasgow School of Art You built it out of stone [Verse 3] Charles Rennie Mackintosh You know I'd love to stay all week and drink all these teapots dry But the tea ain't cheap in this room that you designed I wonder what they're asking for a little shepherd's pie [Verse 4] So Charles Rennie Mackintosh Now the world has turned, your old town has changed a lot And if you walked Buchanan Street, I'm sure you'd find it odd Mrs. Cranston sold the building and they changed the whole facade
