Facts:
  • Written by John Lennon round a poster he had advertising a circus show (Maxe)
  • Song Lyrics:
    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
    and lastly through a hogshead of real fire
    In this way Mr. K will challenge the world

    The celebrated Mr. K
    performs his feats 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 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
    (Maxe)
