Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite

Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite
(Lennon – McCartney)

For the benefit of Mr. Kite
There will be a show tonight on trampoline
The Hendersons will all be there
Late of Pablo Fanques Fair
What a scene!

Over men and horses, hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead of real fire!
In this way Mr. K will change 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

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

The band begins at ten to six
When Mr. Kite performs his tricks without sound
Ten summersets 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
