The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke (Live at the Rainbow, London / March 1974)

Ahhh, ahhh, ahh

Ah-ah

Fairy folk have gathered 'round

The new moonshine

See the feller crack-a-nut

At night's noon-time

Axe he swears

'cause he climbs he dare

To deliver

Ploughman 'Waggoner Will' and types

Politician with senatorial pipe

Dally-oh

Pedagogue squinting wears a frown

And a satyr peers under lady's gown

What a dirty lad-io

Tatterdemalion and a junketer

There's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter

Hero

Fairy dandy tickling the fancy

Of his lady friend...

In yellow

What a quaere fellow...

(Instrumental bridge/piano-guitar solo)

Soldier, sailor, tinker, tailor, ploughboy

Waiting to hear the sound

And the arch-magician presides

He is the leader

Oberon and Titania watched by a 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

In yellow

What a quaere fellow ...

The ostler stares with hands on his knees

Come on Mr. Feller

Crack it open if you please

Ahhhh, ahh ...

(drumroll Coda)

(Roger: Thank you

Freddie:  Tell you what, it's time you all joined in, everybody, and I know you know the words to this one, all you gotta do is clap along, sing along the choruses, it's called ...)
