ARISE YE GENTLE FAERIE FOLK

HARK THE MERRY FAERIES SING

AWAY THROUGH THE FOREST

DON WE NOW OUR FAERIE WINGS

COME SWEET FAERIES

OH PHALLIC TREE!

ARISE YE GENTLE FAERIE FOLK
(To the Tune of "Comfort and Joy")

Arise ye gentle faerie folk
Let nothing you dismay
The world has need of faerie dust
To cheer December's way

A sprinkle here
A sprinkle there
Their tears will wipe away

With a sprinkle of Glitter and Joy
Glitter and Joy.
Just a sprinkle of Glitter and Joy.

Though preachers and their politics
Try hard to block the way
Your merriment and wonder
Will surely save the day

And bring us to the sacred groves
Where children laugh and play

With a sprinkle of Glitter and Joy
Glitter and Joy
Just a sprinkle of Glitter and Joy.

HARK THE MERRY FAERIES SING
(To the tune of "Hark the Herald Angels")

Hark the Merry Faeries Sing
Join us as we cast our ring
Sweet we love and loud we laugh
Trav'ling each on our own path.

Joyful all who gather near
Come release your shame and fear
Be true to life and love and play
Dance with us on this fine day.

Dance away your tears and pain
We guarantee it's joy you'll gain

Hark the Merry Faeries Sing
Join us in this blessed ring!

~(written by Amy Miller & Brad Colby)

AWAY THROUGH THE FOREST
(To the tune of "Away in a Manger")

Away through the forest
The faeries did fly
To come by my window
And beckon me nigh.

With giggles and glitter
And stories galore
Of wonders and magic
I'd ne'er glimpsed before.

Such splendours and mys'tries
They told me about
I leapt from my pillow
And stole my way out.

Naked and eager
I danced 'cross the yard
Seduced by the sweet voice
Of the faeries' Chief Bard.

With words and with music
My heart he did break
From the spell of adulthood
My dreams he did wake.

And deep in the forest
My passions unbound
I danced with the faeries
around and around.

'Ere morning had broken
They returned me to sleep
But even in daylight
This secret I keep.

That each moment's bliss
Is a world of its own
And the faerie within us
Reveals the way home.

DON WE NOW OUR FAERIE WINGS
(To the tune of "Deck the Halls")

Don we now our faerie wings!
Fa La La La La La La La La!
We flit about like silly things!
Fa La La La La La La La La!

Bringing joy and merry pleasure!
Fa La La La La La La La La!
Handbags full of glit'ring treasure!
Fa La La La La La La La La!

'Round the tree we gad about!
Fa La La La La La La La La!
"Hail, Green Phallus!" Here us shout!
Fa La La La La La La La La!
Fa La La La La La La La La!

COME SWEET FAERIES
(To the tune of "O Come Emmanuel")

Oh come, Oh, come
Sweet faeries gather near
Your presence by our hearth
We treasure dear!

Your sparkling eyes
Rekindle our lost mirth
And when you laugh
Joy dances 'round the earth!

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Sweet faeries come to call
With merriment and magic for us all!

Though winter's dark embrace
Lays o'er the world
Bright shinning still
The hope that you unfurl

From beating wings
That dart across the skies
Sewing the seeds of life
That never dies!

Rejoice! Rejoice!
Sweet faeries come to call
With merriment and magic for us all!

OH PHALLIC TREE!
(To the tune of "Oh Tannenbaum")

Oh, Phallic Tree! Oh, Phallic Tree!
I'd sit upon your branches. (2x)

Their form all trimmed for me recalls
Jeff Styker's tool and mighty balls!
Oh, Phallic Tree! Oh, Phallic Tree!
I'd sit upon your branches.

Under your spell our an-ces-tors
Would dance around then drop their drawers!
Oh, Phallic Tree! Oh, Phallic Tree!
I'd sit upon your branches!

Your splendid fur all decked in light
Is tribute to the Green Man's Might!
Oh, Phallic Tree! Oh, Phallic Tree!
I'd sit upon your branches!

Astride your tip the angel sings:
"I've lube and condoms 'neath my wings!"
Oh, Phallic Tree! Oh, Phallic Tree!
I'd sit upon your branches.

Together now let us confess
Despite the priests we'll do our best
To banish fear and shame away
From 'neath your joyful branches!

Oh, Phallic Tree! Oh, Phallic Tree!
We'll stride atop your branches.
