ALAS, FOR BIRMINGHAM!

Yes, gentle spring is on the way,
We might say, on the wing;
But therell be no joys ior young and
Within the circus ring.
The jolly clown will not appear,
Nor will We hear his jokes;
There'll be no wagons passing by
On wheels with gilded spokes.
The steam piano will not play.
There'll be no acrobats;
There'll be no ladies in pink tights,
No raging tiger cats.
Horses trained and cunning seals,
Brass bands that sweetly play,
VIII not delight the masses here
And take their wealth away.
There'll be no fun and frolic for
Grandpa and the boys;
The fates that be deny to US
A taste of sawdust joys.
Spring may come in glad attirs
But there'll be no circus day,
The tax is Might've can but sigh
And the circus will not pay.
