Tray Of Delights...

Don't give her no pickles

Shriveled and grey

Find out what she likes

Or she'll toss the tray

Chorus

Don't give her no pickles

Shriveled and grey

Find out what she likes

Or she'll toss the tray

Post-Chorus

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Verse 2

Crust of fresh honey, soft as the rain

Lemon or cherry, wild sugar cane

She laughs at the feast in the long summer hall

Silk of her ribbon, she beckons them all

Pre-Chorus

A lilt of her voice in the night spinning round

The ribbons and carols all swirling the town

Chorus

Don't give her no pickles

Shriveled and grey

Find out what she likes

Or she'll toss the tray

Post-Chorus

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Verse 3

Sugared lilac and apple so red

Goblins and maidens sit close as she’s fed

Grace in her fingers, a hush in the hall

She chooses her flavor, she grants them her call

Pre-Chorus

Under the garland the old table bends

Yet none bring the jar that her favor offends

Chorus

Don't give her no pickles

Shriveled and grey

Find out what she likes

Or she'll toss the tray

Post-Chorus

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Bridge

Low in the pantry, the secrets abound

A glimmer of laughter, the treasures are found

Beakers of nectar and cakes in a row

None shall deliver what’s wrinkled and low

Pre-Chorus

Spindle and garland, the feast is arrayed

All with their offerings, brightly displayed

Chorus

Don't give her no pickles

Shriveled and grey

Find out what she likes

Or she'll toss the tray

Post-Chorus

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Outro

Golden the morning, crumbs on the floor

She hums by the window, she asks them for more

A dish wrapped in violet, a smile to repay

But she turns from the pickles, still bright as the May

Post-Chorus

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la

Hey la hey la
