Storm In A Teacup
The Fortunes 1972
  (Sting 22309)   Paul Bristow
 
two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
One drop of rain on your window pane
Doesn't mean to say there's a thunderstorm comin'
The rain may pour for an hour or more but it doesn't matter

Allemande left and weave the ring
It's a storm in a teacup brewin' up double
Swing and promenade her
It's a storm in a teacup, it really doesn't matter
If it pitter pitter patters


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads touch 1/4 and the boy run right
Square thru but on your third hand, swing thru
Boys run right and now half tag
Single hinge, boys trade
Spin the top, walk up and now, slide thru
Swing your corner girl and promenade
It's a storm in a teacup it really doesn't matter
(if it pitter pitter patters)


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
One gentle breeze blowin' softly through the trees
Doesn't mean to say there's a hurricane hummin'
Don't start runnin' everytime you hear it comin'
'Cause it doesn't matter
, Allemande left and weave the ring
It's a storm in a teacup brewin' up double
Swing and promenade her
It's a storm in a teacup it really doesn't matter
If it pitter pitter patters


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
One little word that you may have overheard
Doesn't mean to say that my love for you is dyin'
Don't start cryin' over second-hand lyin' say it doesn't matter

Allemande left and weave the ring
It's a storm in a teacup brewin' up double
Swing and promenade her
It's a storm in a teacup it really doesn't matter
If it pitter pitter patters


TAG

Swing your girl at home, yeah!
