<poem>I have a friend and it's an earthworm
<poem>I have a friend and it's an earthworm
It burrows underground deep within the soil
It burrows underground deep within the soil
Sometimes when it rains it comes out
Sometimes, when it rains, it comes out
and we talk about our day
And we talk about our day


I have a friend and she's a butterfly
I have a friend and she's a butterfly
she flies from flower to flower drinking sweet nectar
She flies from flower to flower drinking sweet nectar
With hundreds of friends  
With hundreds of friends  
they sleep up in the trees at night
They sleep up in the trees at night


I have a friend and he's a dragonfly
I have a friend and he's a dragonfly
he sweeps around all day and hovers in the air
He sweeps around all day and hovers in the air
he's colorful and wonderful
He's colorful and wonderful
his wings are strong and powerful
His wings are strong and powerful
he's the dragonfly
He's the dragonfly


These are my friends
These are my friends
even though they are bugs
Even though they are bugs
They have a big role in our world
They have a big role in our world
even though they're bugs
Even though they're bugs


I have a friend and it's an earthworm
I have a friend and it's an earthworm
I have a friend and she's a butterfly
I have a friend and she's a butterfly
I have a friend and he's a dragonfly
I have a friend and he's a dragonfly
They are my friends and yeah they're all insects
They are my friends and, yeah, they're all insects
