Late of Pablo Fanques Fair, what a scene

       Dm             Dm/C 
  Over man and horses hoops and garters
  B♭               A7            Dm  c b♭ a
  Lastly through a hog's head of real fire
          Gm7     A                     Dm  c b♭ a
  In this way Mr. K. will challenge the world

Gm7  A7  Dm!  G  w/ flûte

The celebrated Mr. K.
Performs his feat on Saturday at Bishopsgate
The Hendersons will dance and sing
As Mr. Kite flies through the ring, don't be late

  Mrs. K. and H. assure the public
  Their production will be second to none
  And of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz

G  piano insistant

The band begins at ten to six
When Mr. K. performs his tricks without a sound
And Mr. H. will demonstrate
Ten summersets he'll undertake on solid ground

  We've been some days in preparation
  A splendid time is guaranteed for all
  And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill
