about

Hummingbirds need to eat insects as well as drink nectar. That means pesticides and weed-killers hurt hummingbirds, too. This feisty little bird would love to be your garden fairy if you will be kind to her!

lyrics

You may think me a flighty bird
A sugar water wimp!
Just a decorative artiste
A pretty, little shrimp!
But I’m no light-weight, Buddy,
I eat bugs with the best
And pollinate your beans
So even bees are impressed!

I can fly both front & backwards
I can dive both up and down
I’m a darting wing sensation
In red flowers can be found

If you want this pollinator
With speeds extraordinary
Tempt bugs for me to eat
And I’ll be your garden fairy!

But doesn't take long for pesticides
To take a toll on my insides
Let me be your food fairy
And you be mine!


I'm a tiny little bird
With a lovely humming sound
Eating aphids and fruit flies
while dancing all around

Plant runner beans n' sage
Cuz a hungry nectar fan
Can give you in exchange
Entertainment with her fans!

But doesn't take long for weed-killers
To take a toll on my liver
Let me be your food fairy
And you be mine!

I zip round when I fly
Like a helicopter hover
My heart beats, oh my,
A flutter like no other

If you want my darts ‘n daring
A life extraordinary
Make it easier to live
For your little garden fairy


Cuz’ doesn't take long for weed-killers
To take a toll on my liver
Oh, let me be your food fairy, and you be mine.
Oh, let me be your food fairy, and you be mine,
Oh, let me be your food fairy, and you be mine!
