Roll up roll up
|
The greatest show on Earth
|
Animals clowns freaks misfits contortionists
|
Fun for all the family
|
|
Currently residing in the 'where are they now' file
|
All tied up in elastic
|
Stubborn like weeds they've been here all the while
|
I saw the egis grow
|
In good working order adjustable spanner
|
Industry junkies
|
Regurgitated cabaret under the hammer
|
They were running the show
|
|
Let's hear it for
|
this year's thing
|
Last year's thing
|
Next year's thing
|
|
Step right this way
|
Thrills chills and spills
|
Marvel at the daring feats
|
Pure entertainment
|
|
Karaoke sex we can spend the night together
|
I made a date with Elvis
|
While someone does a runner with the group's bread and butter
|
I heard the colonel sing
|
From a packet of twenty when will they learn
|
Sickalongadanbert
|
That for one good smoke there's nineteen that burn
|
I never saw the strings
|
|
Attached to
|
This year's thing
|
Last year's thing
|
Next year's thing
|
|
Jump a little higher
|
Live by fire die by fire
|
I am the dog in the manger
|
Or a dodgy brown packet with suspicious-looking wires
|
Here's my starter for ten
|
Behind that pane of glass your special backstage pass
|
Hear the never-has-been
|
Meet the manager with his kex down and kiss his arse
|
And watch what happen again
|
|
This time it's this year's thing
|
Last year's thing
|
Next year's thing
|
Politics is this year's thing
|
