The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke lyrics

He's a fairy feller

The fairy folk have gathered

Round the new moon's shine

To see the feller crack a nut

At night's noon-time

To swing his axe he swears

As he climbs he dares

To deliver

The Master-Stroke

Ploughman, "Wagoner Will" and types

Politician with senatorial pipe

He's a dilly-dally-oh

Pedagogue squinting, wears a frown

And a satyr peers under lady's gown

He's a dirty fellow

What a dirty laddio

Tatterdemalion and the junketer

There's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter

He's my hero ah

Fairy dandy tickling the fancy

Of his lady friend

The nymph in yellow

(can we see the master stroke)

What a quaere fellow

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

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

The nymph in yellow

What a quaere fellow

The ostler stares with hands on his knees

Come on Mr. feller

Crack it open if you please
