 There were fairies at the bottom of the garden

"There were fairies at the bottom of the garden" can be found in Peggy Grainger's A Mum's (Mostly Musical) Memories. I found it pretty soppy myself as a four-year old tearaway. If I ever came across any fairies at the bottom of my garden in Randsome Avenue, Worcester, I would have probably picked their wings off as I was apt to with other creepy-crawlies which were unfortunate enough to fall victims to my infant maulers. The song was OK for my kid sisters but it never turned me on.
