Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!

The Beatles The Beatles

For the benefit of Mr. Kite
There will be a show tonight
On trampoline

The Hendersons will all be there
Late of Pablo Fanque's Fair
What a scene

Over men and horses, hoops and garters
Lastly, through a hog's head of real fire
In this way Mr. K will challenge the world

The celebrated Mr. K.
Performs his feat on Saturday
At Bishop's Gate

The Hendersons will dance and sing
As Mr. Kite flies through the ring
Don't be late!

Misters K. and H. assure the public
Their production will be second to none
And, of course, Henry the horse dances the waltz

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
