Lyrics:
If your constitution's strong
sensibilitites not easily offended
perhaps you'd like to come along
to a place i think most spendid
come with me and you shall see
souls less fortunate than we
a bewildering diversity
of suffering...and lunacy

chorus:
let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
please be warned though, they can be rather bitey
so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!

v1.
surely there's something else to see
we live in an age of great technology
London brims with wonderment
and much of it is fee
is there really nothng better than lunatics to see?

chorus:
NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
please be warned, they can be rather bitey
so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!

v2.
we could take the ladies for a promenade
underneath the Thames through Brunel's tunnel
or take the Great Western to Bristol docks
to see his new steamship with it's great big funnel? (it's massive!)

chorus:
NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
please be warned, they can be rather bitey
so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!

v3.
what about the Great Exhibition in the park
underneath Paxton's Crystal Palace?
we can see the biggest diamond in the world
the Jacquard Loom and a steam powered phallus? (it's massive!)

chorus:
NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
please be warned, they can be rather bitey
so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!

you know, Mr O'Neill, i'm beginning to get the impression that you're not sold on my nutters idea...
i must admit, Mr Heintz, i do have my reservations!
well, the night is young, what would YOU rather do?
well my night would pan out something like this...

v4.
take a Hansom cab to the East End slums
see the whores in old Whitechapel
yes, they do smell a bit
but they're really very cheap
and you can get your end away for the price of an apple...
...?

chorus:
NO! let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
please be warned, they can be rather bitey
so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!

look, i've been to the Exhibition...it was boring
the tunnel under the Thames just keeps bloomin collapsing
i still haven't recovered from my last visit to the whores
but the nutters, quite frankly, are amazing!

alright then!

let's go down see the nutters in the Bedlam
slip a chap a coin you could even touch a few
please be warned, they can be rather bitey
so never turn your back on them no matter what you do!
