Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!
"Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!" is a song recorded by the English rock band the Beatles for their eighth studio album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967). It was written and composed primarily by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney. Most of the lyrics came from a 19th-century poster advertising an appearance of Pablo Fanque's Circus Royal at Rochdale. "Mr. Kite!" was one of three songs from Sgt. Pepper that were banned from BBC radio, supposedly because the phrase "Henry the Horse" combined two slang words for heroin. Lennon denied that the song had anything to do with heroin.
