He loves the bearded lady she loves the tattooed man
This one he's an acrobat each one of them is damned
Jimmy the pickpocket will shake you by the hand
He'll smile at you politely but your purse it will be damned
A whore who works the fairground her name is Crystal Lil
Over there's her boy friend he'll sell you any pill
Gypsy Joe's a cut-throat when he's not out on smack
So if you want your husband killed he their throat will slash
Billy boy the barker he likes to cheat at cards
He's been caught out so many times you can see the scars
The knife thrower's got alcohol upon his breath
One day he's going to be so drunk he will cause a death
The gypsies they are dancing, dancing to the moon
And each one in this fairground each one they are doomed
