London Cast Recording Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Lyrics
Mary Poppins:
When trying to express oneself, it's frankly quite absurd,
To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word.
A little spontaniety keeps conversation keen,
You need to find a way to say, precisely what you mean...
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious!
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,
Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Mary Poppins:
When Stone Age men were chatting, merely grunting would suffice.
Bert:
Now if they heard this word, they might have used it once or twice!
Mrs. Corry:
I'm sure Egyptian pharoahs would have grasped it in a jiff,
Then every single pyramid would bear this hieroglyph;
Oh!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Say it and wild animals would not seem so ferocious!
Mary Poppins:
Add some further flourishes, it's so ro-co-co-coscious!

Bert:
The Druids could have carved it on their mighty monoliths!
Mrs. Corry:
I'm certain the ancient Greeks would have used it in their midst!
Mary Poppins:
I'm sure the Roman Empire only entered the abyss,
Because those Latin scholars never had a word like this!
Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Mary Poppins:
If you say it softly the effect can be hypnoscious!
Bert:
Check your breath before you speak, in case it's halitotious!
Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Mary Poppins (spoken):
Of course you can say it backwards, which is Suoicodilaipxecitsiligarfilacrepus!
Michael (spoken):
She may be tricky, but she's b_____ good!
Mary Poppins:
So when the cat has got your tongue, there's no need for dismay!
Just summon up this word and then you've got a lot to say!
Bert:
Pick out those eighteen consonants and sixteen vowels as well,
And put them in an order which is very hard to spell...
