Cheapest Show

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.
