Bedlam

Lyrics

If your constitution's strong
 sensibility's not easily offended
 perhaps you'd like to come along
 to a place I think most splendid
 Come with me
 and you will see
 souls less fortunate than we
 a bewildering diversity
 of suffering... and lunacy
 Let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
 slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
 please be warned though, they can be rather bitey
 so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
 Surely there's something else to see
 we live in an age of great technology
 London brims with wonderment
 and much of it is fee
 is there really nothng better than lunatics to see?
 NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
 slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
 please be warned, they can be rather bitey
 so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
 We could take the ladies for a promenade
 underneath the Thames through Brunel's tunnel
 or take the Great Western to Bristol docks
 to see his new steamship with it's great big funnel? (it's massive!)
 NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
 slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
 please be warned, they can be rather bitey
 so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
 What about the Great Exhibition in the park
 underneath Paxton's Crystal Palace?
 we can see the biggest diamond in the world
 the Jacquard Loom and a steam powered phallus? (it's massive!)
 NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
 slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
 please be warned, they can be rather bitey
 so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
 You know, Mr O'Neill, i'm beginning to get the impression that you're not sold on my nutters idea...
 i must admit, Mr Heintz, i do have my reservations!
 well, the night is young, what would YOU rather do?
 well my night would pan out something like this...
 Take a Hansom cab to the East End slums
 see the whores in old Whitechapel
 yes, they do smell a bit
 but they're really very cheap
 and you can get your end away for the price of an apple...
 ...?
 NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
 slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
 please be warned, they can be rather bitey
 so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
 Look, i've been to the Exhibition... it was boring
 the tunnel under the Thames just keeps bloomin collapsing
 i still haven't recovered from my last visit to the whores
 but the nutters, quite frankly, are amazing!
 Alright then!
 Let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
 slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
 please be warned, they can be rather bitey
 so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
