Lyrics
Every Sunday afternoon
Describing the time of the week, likely a leisurely moment.
I am out with my sugar
The singer is spending time with their romantic partner.
When I take my sugar to tea
Expressing an activity of taking the romantic partner for tea.
All the boys are jealous of me
Boys envy the singer for being with their attractive partner.
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes
Highlighting the singer's choice not to follow the crowd when going out with their partner.
When I take my sugar to tea
Reiterating the activity of taking the romantic partner for tea.
I'm a rowdy dowdy, that's me
Describing the singer as a carefree and lively person.
She's a high hat baby, that's she
Describing the romantic partner as sophisticated.
So I never take her where the gang goes
Reiterating the choice not to follow the crowd when going out with the partner.
When I take my sugar to tea
Repeating the activity of taking the romantic partner for tea.
Every Sunday afternoon
Repeating the description of the leisurely time on Sunday afternoon.
We forget about our cares
Indicating that during this time, worries and troubles are forgotten.
Rubbing elbows at the Ritz
Portraying a scene of socializing at an upscale venue, the Ritz.
With those millionaires
Specifically, socializing with wealthy individuals (millionaires).
When I take my sugar to tea
Repeating the activity of taking the romantic partner for tea with an emphasis on being elegant.
I'm as ritzy as I can be
Expressing a sense of sophistication and luxury during tea time.
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes
Reiterating the choice not to follow the crowd during these outings.
When I take my sugar to tea
Repeating the activity of taking the romantic partner for tea.
Every Sunday afternoon
Repeating the description of the leisurely time on Sunday afternoon.
We forget about our cares
Reiterating that worries are set aside during this time.
Rubbing elbows at the Ritz
Repeating the scene of socializing at the Ritz.
With those zillionaires
Clarifying that the socializing is with extremely wealthy individuals (zillionaires).
When I take my sugar to tea
Repeating the activity of taking the romantic partner for tea with an emphasis on elegance.
I'm as ritzy as I can be
Reiterating a sense of sophistication and luxury during tea time.
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes
Emphasizing the choice not to follow the crowd during these outings.
When I am out with my sugar
Repeating the singer's companionship with their romantic partner.
Hey, she is a looker
Expressing admiration for the physical appearance of the romantic partner.
When I take my sugar
Repeating the activity of taking the romantic partner for tea.
To tea
Concluding the song with a repetition of the tea-taking activity.
