Mayhem Maybe |
| When we’re working nights, the village 'round |
| The old church becomes scary town |
| All curtained windows and bolted doors |
| But never an eye to see |
| As us fairy folks sweep from the hill |
| Never caught us and never will |
| Pulling roses and daffodil |
| Mayhem in the high degree |
| The blacksmith chased us all to ground |
| They searched all night, we were never found |
| The tinker boys and the sheriff’s men |
| Shaking the tallest tree |
| And we sat and watched the women hide |
| Laughed so much we split our sides |
| Scattered horses that they would ride |
| Mayhem in the high degree |
| We crossed through fields of midnight green |
| Often heard but seldom seen |
| Tore along hedges, stripping leaves |
| No one could quite agree |
| Whether we came from north or south |
| We stole the screams from out their mouths |
| And go where no man would allow |
| Mayhem in the high degree |
| Like scaly carp and feathered swan |
| To nature’s world we do belong |
| We ride the thin winds of the night |
| And set dark spirits free |
| We terrify the mare and foal |
| The fox stood still and far too bold |
| So we strung him up, brush neatly folded |
| Mayhem, maybe |
