(Sorry, Chris, I feel not the least bit guilty for this one...it's not all that good anyway :) ) It was late at night on the forest road Trailing all the sidhe on the run A lifetime spent preparing for the journey He is closer now and the search is on Pleading in the back of his mind Yes, there's that ragged hill and there's the sidhe goin in 'er. And when he tried to go down He heard a faerie-dog howl There were voices in the night (don't do it) Voices out of sight (don't do it) Too many men have failed before...! Whatever you do: Don't play the faerie, man! Don't dis a single gnome Don't play the faerie, man, Until you're sure that you can get back home! In the rolling mist when he goes inside Now there'll be no turning back Beware the drinks and toadstools that they offer! And then the lightning flashed and the thunder roared People calling out his name And dancing elves that drove him —! And then a Fairy-man led him into his bed So he must dis him now (don't do it) He must dis him now (don't do it) And still that voice came from beyond-- Whatever you do: Don't play the faerie, man! Don't dis a single gnome Don't play the faerie, man, Until you're sure that you can get back home! [And what else did he see, but dizzyingly beautiful fae, laughing and dancing all around him. But he couldn't touch them! And they were making all kinds of jingling and jangling sounds and all sorts of horrible noises! And he started praying to his dearest God that he could get the hell outta there...]* Yea-yea-yea-yea-- Don't play the faerie, man! Don't dis a single gnome Don't play the faerie, man, Until you're sure that you can get back home! Don't play the faerie, man! Don't dis a single gnome Don't play the faerie, man, Until you're sure that you can get back home! Don't play the faerie, man! Don't dis a single gnome Don't play the faerie, man, Until you're sure that you can get back home! Don't play the fairy, man! *I have no clue what is really being said here in the original song...but this matches as best I can make it LOL...
