Thread Name: Lyr Add: A Fairy Story (Shay Healy)
Subject: RE: A Fairy Story anyone know more about it?
Funny little ditty, written in the late 2oth or early 21st century for sure. The use of the word "flagoned" to mean "flagged" (which wouldn't rhyme) indicates it was written by an American. I don't believe there has ever been a verb "to flagon" (except in the sense to continue flagging!). I have occasionally been wrong, though.
