Now all you gay people, be off in a jiffy,
To see this grand sight in London city,
If you do not go, it will be a pity,
Such a beautiful Lord Mayor’s Show;
If my Lord Mayor should give up the old coach,
In an old dung cart he will approach,
As sleek as an eel, as sly as a roach,
Such a big bellied man is the mayor.
Ride a cock horse to old Charing Cross,
To see the Lord Mayor on an old horse,
