Courtin' in the Litchen

Come all ye fey and fairy
Come closer pay attention
If ye in the meadow play
Where the gloamin' is bewitchin'
Make sure you have a look-out
Make sure you know what's itchin'
And make sure you beware
If you're courtin' in the litchen

I waited in the evening
For my true love to join me
Her wings were beating gently
As she sat right down beside me
"This meadow is too crowded,"
She pouted, so invitin',
"Let's go down by the creek
Where there's just not so much lightin'"

So to the creek we went
Where the rocks were smooth as butter
The evening sun was setting
And she gave her wings a flutter
"Come closer, lay beside me,"
She said, her look so fetchin'
And that's how we ended up
Goin' courtin' in the litchen

sing toora loora goblin
sing toora loora troll

Well, no one warned us two
That the creek was close to humans
I'd rather be near goblins
They don't smell quite so phew-in'
No sooner had we started
Our wings entwined and kissin'
When over to the left, we heard,
"Look what's in the litchen!"

sing toora loora goblin
sing toora loora troll

We tried to disappear
But our wings were caught together
Huge footsteps sounded near
And we called upon the weather
A rumbling cloudburst answered
And rain came as we fumbled
But damn that rock was slick,
And into that creek we tumbled!

sing toora loora fey
sing toora loora goblin
sing toora loora troll
toora loora human (yuck!)

The current washed us down
To a bridge we had avoided
A troll came out to gloat
And we blushed in high annoyance
The current swept us past
And then released us, bi***in'
Two wet unhappy fairies
Gone courtin' in the litchen.
