Cheapest Show Songtext

von Tiger Lillies

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "Cheapest Show" von Tiger Lillies beschreibt eine billige und heruntergekommene Zirkusshow. Die Textzeilen ...

The lion he has got false teeth, the fire eater is a cheat
The exotic dancer is antique.
The high-wire artist broke his nose, the dancing bears got gangrened toes,
& all the artists need new clothes.
Cut price is the acrobat, the fortune teller is a hack, the clowns make up is all cracked

It's the cheapest show you've ever seen
With drunks drug addicts & old queens
Its garish gaudy & obscene.

Half the staff are pimps & whores
Too old to do it anymore,
They're all old, ugly, stupid, poor
The boss drinks like an unblocked drain
He's ugly stupid & he's vain & he's so in debt he should elope to Spain

The big top it has got more holes than a dart board
Its so old, its gangrened green with mould.

It's the cheapest show you've ever seen
With drunks drug addicts & old queens
Its garish gaudy & obscene.
