My Mommy’s gonna buy me A mocking bird with earplugs A diamond ring barbie A virtual looking glass Mom is Cinderella, She just flew beyond the moon With charter flying broomstick, charter flying broomstick A typical Monday morning: I’m off to school with the schoolbus Dad to his fairy workplace Mom’s off to who knows, […]
Pixie girls in pixie playgrounds skip and skitter in a square dance Sing for you and swing for you and flirt and dally with a fair glance Flush and blush like little buttercups, Clapping with their flips and flops They stumble and tumble, little bees bumble Pixie girls in pixie playgrounds bedazzle you with a […]
Tears of wildwood flowers, dews of early morning Pitter-patter rains fall, when the skies are mourning Hoarfrost in a casket, feathers from an aerie Kids who’ve never been sad, can’t become a fairy (translation from Rigó – Huzella School of fairies – Tündériskola)
