'WHAT
A CIRCUS'
Bearded Lady: I am the Bearded Lady… Not really
– I confess.
Make no mistake,
The beard's a fake.
I'm some bloke in a dress!
Strongman: Forget the lions or trapeze
For I'm as strong as Hercules!
See me lift over a tonne.
I clean and jerk that weight for fun.
I'm not one to brag – I'm far too gallant -
But I could bench press an elephant!
Let's face the facts – there's no one stronger!
Mrs Strongman: Oh no my dear! You couldn't be wrong-ger!
Strongman: Er… My darling wife, what are you
doing here?
Mrs Strongman: Don't "darling" me - do I
smell beer?
I'm sick of looking after bubs
While you're off drinking at the pubs.
So get home now and feed the fishes,
And mop the floor and do the dishes,
And wash the dog 'cos he's got fleas
Are you listening to me Jerkules?
And bath the baby and change his nappy
And when I get home, if I'm not happy
With all the work that you've put in
Then I'll bring out the rolling pin!
Strongman: Yes dear.
Mrs Strongman: He may be strong but he's a souse,
Can't lift a finger 'round the house.
