Subject: LL-Humour: Scottish Christmas Fairy

*Scottish Christmas Fairy*
**
*CHRISTMAS FAIRY

I am a little fairy
On tap o' the Christmas Tree
It's no' a job I fancy
Well how would you like tae be me?

A'm tarted up wi' tinsel
It's enough to mak ye boak
An a couple o' jaggy branches
Rammed up the back o' your frock.

An' these wee lights a'roon me
I canna get my sleep
An' there's the yearly visit
Fae Santa - Big fat creep!

On Christmas Day I'm stuck up here
While you're a' wirin' in
An' naebody says "Hey you up there
Could you go a slug o' gin?

It's nae joke bein' a fairy
The job's beyond belief
You've got to go roon' the wean's beds
An' lift their rotten teeth.

But o' a' the joabs a fairy gets
An' I've mentioned only some
The very worst is sitting up a tree
Wi' pine needles up yir bum.** **

**When a' the fairies meet again
By the light of' the silvery moon** **
Ye can tell the Christmas fairies
They're the** **wans that canna sit doon.**

**The Christmas tree's a bonny sight
As the firelight softly flickers
But think o' me I'm stuck up here
Wi' needles in my knickers. **

**So soon as Christmas time's right by
An' I stop bein' sae full o' cheer
I'll get awa back tae Fairyland **
**An' I'll see yous a' next year.*
