|
The lion he has got false teeth, the fire eater is a cheat |
|
The exotic dancer is antique. |
|
The high-wire artist smashed his nose, the dancing bears got gangrened toes, |
|
And all the artists need new clothes. |
|
Cut price is the acrobat, the fortune teller is a hack, the clown's make-up is all cracked |
|
Half the staff are pimps and whores, too old to do it any more, |
|
They're all old, twisted, bitter and poor |
|
The boss drinks like an unblocked drain, his wife is stupid, ugly, vain |
|
And they're so broke they should elope to Spain |
|
The big top it has got more holes than a dart board it's so old, |
|
The top is rancid, green with mould. |
|
It's the cheapest show you've ever seen |
|
With drop-outs, drug addicts, old queens |
|
It's garish, gaudy, cheap and obscene. |
