Hummingbird in a Box Lyrics

There is a puzzle in the wood blocks
Inside a mystery that unlocks
You find a hummingbird in a box
A gift from the orient
A young boy amused
The wise old bandit said
"You have to make the right moves."
There is a puzzle in the wood blocks
Inside a mystery that unlocks
You find a hummingbird in a box
The inlay is beautiful
The secret concealed
It's not just the bird inside
The joy in the boy is revealed
There is a puzzle in the wood blocks
Inside a mystery that unlocks
You find a hummingbird in a box
A puzzle in the wood blocks
Inside a mystery that unlocks
You find a hummingbird in a box
Pushing and sliding
A pattern of blind
Something is hiding inside
There is a puzzle in the wood blocks
Inside a mystery that unlocks
You'll find a hummingbird in a box
A puzzle in the wood blocks
Inside a mystery that unlocks
You find a hummingbird in a box

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
