Queen - Fairy Feller's Master Stroke


He's a ferry feller
The fairy folk have gathered round the newmoon shine
To see the feller crack a nut a nights noon time
To swing his axe see swears, as it climbs he dares to deliver
The master stroke
Ploughman, waggoner will, and types
Politician with senatorial pipe - he's a dilly dallio
Pedagouge squinting, wears a frown

And the satyr peers under lady's gown, dirty fellow
What a dirty laddio
Tatterdemalion and a junketeer
There's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter - he's my hero
Fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend
The nymph is yellow "Can we see his master stroke"
What a quaere fellow
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 is yellow, what a quaere fellow
The ostler stares with hands on his knees
Come on Mr. Feller crack it open if you please
