Benefits cut for Mr Kite
And anyone else who shows they might
Be able to put on a show
Universal accreditation
Is henceforth withdrawn
Across the entire circus portfolio
We really don't care if you can spin a plate
Or if your horse can dance or you're Catherine the Great
We're taking back every penny, we're confiscating your bike
There's a scrapheap in the corner you could balance on if you like
Take it on the chin or take it in the eye
Try to keep a grin when you get a custard pie
We can give you breadcrumps or we can give you tripe
No more furlough for you or any of your type
