This tricky English sentence can't be translated while keeping the same 'sense' or meaning so...I tried to find a similar wordplay that makes sense: T(thee)voor u zetten : making tea for you.

It's a similar wordplay, but I think it shouldn't be linked as a translation because the meaning is not the same.

This sentence was initially added as a translation of sentence #403859If I could rearrange the alphabet, I would put U and I together..

Als ik het alfabet kon herschikken, dan zette ik nog steeds T voor U.
