He's a Fairy Feller

The fairy folk have gathered round the new-moon shine

To see the Feller crack a nut at night's noon-time

To swing his axe he swears, as it climbs he dares

To deliver...

The master-stroke

 

Ploughman, 'Waggoner Will', and types

Politician with senatorial pipe - he's a dilly-dally-o

Pedagogue squinting, wears a frown

And a satyr peers under lady's gown, dirty fellow

What a dirty laddio

Tatterdemalion and a junketer

There's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter - he's my hero, aah

 

Fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend

The nymph in yellow 'can we see the master-stroke'

What a quaere fellow

 

Soldier, sailor, tinker, tailer, ploughboy

Waiting to hear the sound

And the arch-magician presides

He is the leader

Oberon and Titania watched by the harridan

Mab is the Queen and there's a good apothecary-man

Come to say hello

Fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend

The nymph in yellow

What a quaere fellow

The ostler stands with hands on his knees

Come on Mr. Feller, crack it open if you please
