Boy: I thought it was a pity to be living in a city To spot a bird or butterfly was tough So I found a little corner for the flora and the fauna A tub or two of dirt was just enough It's amazing how I started with a little pack of seeds Soon I'd grown a bunch of plants I used to think were weeds That's how I became the keeper of a tiny urban zoo I brought some wildflowers and things just grew Now I got bugs and beetles, butterflies and birds And lots of little critters far too beautiful for words You, too, could be the keeper of a tiny urban zoo It's really not that hard Boy: How about a birdbath?

Girl: Do birds bathe? Boy: Course. They need to drink too. Girl: They drink their own bathwater? Gross! Boy: (singing) Soon this venue had a menu, flowers, leaves and grass There's no finer fast-food diner for the bugs who happen to pass Caterpillars loved it soon began to munch Till a passing robin came along for lunch I became the keeper of a tiny urban zoo Got lots of creepy crawlies now but who eats who? The herbivores enjoy a tasty range of plants The carnivores will eat them if they ever get a chance You, too, could be the keeper of a tiny urban zoo It's really not that hard You can plant one in your own backyard Female Bird: Look at all those morsels; We can't resist them Male Bird: Seems he made his own little ecosystem Boy: Birds are calling, snails are crawling, ladybugs abound Bees are buzzing by the dozen, butterflies are flitting around Then we have the spiders; Welcome to my patch Spin yourselves a cobweb; See what you can catch That's how Critters: He became the keeper of a tiny urban zoo We all need one another or it's no can do We don't ask for a lot; We're grateful to the child It's just a mini version of what happens in the wild All: You, too, could be the keeper of a tiny urban zoo It's really not that hard You can plant one in your own backyard Spider: It's like a jungle out there.
