Fact: "The song's title comes from a standard 19th century phrase used
in advertising testimonial performances in Britain: "Being for the
benefit of..." All-round performer William Kite worked alongside Pablo
Fanque and wire-walker/clown/trampolines the Hendersons in 1843."

The Hendersons will all be there

Late of Pablo - Fanques fair, what a scene

Ov - er men and horses hoops and garters

Last-ly through a hogshead of real fire!

In this way Misterr K. will challenge the world!
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 assures the public
Their production will be second to none
And of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz-!
(Circus organ music)
The band begins at ten to six
When Mr. K. performs his tricks without a sound
And Mr. H. will demonstrate
Ten somersets he'll undertake on solid ground
Having been some days in preparation
A splendid time is guaranteed for all
And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill-.
(Circus organ music.) |
