GUEST,worcs wanderer Lyr/Chord ADD: The Bullingdon Circus (Robb Johnson (14) RE: Chord Req: Bullingdon Circus by Robb Johnson 10 Aug 10


Thank you for your response, leadfingers, and, yes, I could ask Robb. He performed Bullingdon Circus at the Tolpuddle Kings Cross 175th Commemoration Festival in April 2009 so I'm guessing he wrote it in 2009 or 2008. As far as I know it's only been officially recorded and released on his recent limited edition cd "Win Lose or Draw (Unbeaten)". I know there's also a video posted on the internet though. The recording was played on Mike Harding's radio show recently and a friend of mine took a fancy to it. I reckon any political song which still seems relevant after a couple of years might have some staying power so I was curious to know if any 'catter had thought the same and worked out chords or tabs.

Oh, and my brain dredged up the missing lyrics:

"And they backhandle pratfalls, see those clowns grin,
Building more turnstiles, raking it in,
See the prices go up as the trousers come down,
The Bullingdon Circus is coming to town,
The Bullingdon Circus is coming to town."
