Fifi The Flea Lyrics - Hollies

(Ransford) 

Fifi the flea fell in love 

With a clown from a flea circus fair 

She gave him her heart 

But he still couldn't see 

That for such a long time she had cared 

He put himself 'round all the other girl fleas 

Unaware that he hurt her so badly 

She cried in the arms of his manager friend 

And declared that she loved the clown madly 

One day Fifi went 

And this drove the clown wild 

The poor little flea started crying 

Never you mind his manager said 

I ought not to tell but she's dyin' 

Dyin' for love of you little flea 

You've broken her heart with your lyin' 

She couldn't stand to see you throw 

Her love away without tryin'

The day Fifi died the little clown vowed 

He'd tend her grave every hour 

He broke down and cried 

When he saw her grave 

And on it he placed a small flower 

Poor little flea he wasted away 

He'd lost his Fifi forever 

So they opened her grave 

Put him inside 

Now at last they are together
