NOBODY LOVES A FAIRY
WHEN SHE'S FORTY
Q: There is a
song about a fairy that goes "everyone loves a fairy when there forty,
everyone loves a fairy with a wand". It is in the classical style
from the 1920, 30, 40 or even 50. It is a great birthday song I
would like to know who sang it so I can try and find a copy.
Thanks- Darren
A: Hi Darren-
Thank you for taking the time to send me your question.
The song is "Nobody Loves a Fairy When She's Forty". I have included the
lyrics below. You can find a copy of Tessie O'Shea's version here:

NOBODY LOVES A FAIRY
WHEN SHE'S FORTY **
Nobody loves a fairy when she's forty
Nobody loves a fairy when she's old,
she may still have a magic power but that is not enough
They like their bit of magic from a younger bit of stuff
When once your silver star has lost it's glitter
And your tinsel looks like rust instead of gold
Your fairy days are ending when your wand has started bending
No one loves a fairy when she's old.
