Pedro El Trapecista
(Feb 2004)

Pedro El Trapecista was king of the high trapeze
And toured the Spanish mainland bringing audiences to their knees
With complicated somersaults performed with graceful ease
And a body that the women, and some men, would like to squeeze.

Known as Spain's great swinger he then lost his head for heights
And started getting nose-bleeds while pulling on his tights.
He lost his sense of balance and got sick just flying kites,
Now twenty feet's the highest he can climb without the frights.

Poor Pedro lost his job to a troupe of jumping fleas
And left behind the high life and his trusty old trapeze.
He sold his big Mercedes, his medallions and his skis
And now he tours the country picking olives out of trees.
