Fairies:

"Tiptoe Round the Toadstool."

(Air: "Tiptoe Through the Toolips.")

Solo
Once, in earth s first splendour,
Hearts were kind and tender;
Science had none to befriend her.
Then, ere she came winging,
Care with knowledge bringing.
Mortals at evening could hear us singing:

Chorus
Wake up, drowsy mortal, from your pillow! leave your dreaming!
Come and tiptoe through the meadows with me!
Outside, in the stillness, by the magic of the moonbeams,
Fairies dancing round the toadstool you'll see!
Moonbeams have woven a charm
That keeps kind mortals from harm ;
And if you listen I can tell you fairy secrets in the moonlight.
While you tiptoe round the toadstool with me!
