Folies Bergere

It's frightfully hot in here, my dear. Mind if I have a little beer?

The usual, Bass Anglaise?

That's the very way, my dear. That's the very way...

Let us make it clear, 'old chap'... Just what 'fruit' are you gawping at?

Your scabby nose now seems far worse. You'll soon be laid out in a hearse!


Folies Bergere, Folies Bergere - an encounter at the Folies Bergere.


Have you seen the latest show? Circus acts are all the go...

Yes, I've seen it all before, and it's just a ruddy bore.

My dear, won't you please come out once more?

The answer, as you've guessed, is 'No!'
