Mr Cheadle’s Menagerie Lyrics

Mr Cheadle’s Menagerie Lyrics

There’s an old folk legend
From many years ago
From 1856, if you really want to know
That once a year to this town
Came a magical, mystical team
Of animals, actors and acrobats
Full of sparkle and gleam
Many years ago
That was many years ago
Everyone would go and watch their show
Many years ago
Many years ago
Sometimes when the wind is right
And usually in the dead of night
If you listen, listen shhhh!
You can just about hear the sound
And that troupe of actors can be found
Coming closer, closer this way shhh!
The ghostly circus may come to stay
The fair’s coming to town (x4)
The fair’s coming to town
Some day, this day, which way, that way* (x8)
Mister Cheadle’s Menagerie
It goes all around the world
Mister Cheadle’s Menagerie
Fun for all the boys and girls (x2)
