Mary Poppins

[GEORGE]
What good a rules if you can bend them?
We need a nanny who is disciplined and stern
With boys and girls you donââ?¬â?¢t befriend them
I fear that Mary Poppins has a lot to learn

Precision and order
Our credo for life
Itââ?¬â?¢s always been a comfort to me
And my wife

But now in our midst thereââ?¬â?¢s
Well, I canââ?¬â?¢t explain
But something is unsettling
In Cherry Tree Lane

[WINIFRED]
Being Mrs Banks
Should be an easy role
And yet itââ?¬â?¢s one
Which I donââ?¬â?¢t seem to good at
On the whole

I have a comfy home
I have a simple life
I have a name which tells the world
Iââ?¬â?¢m someone elseââ?¬â?¢s wife

Being Mrs Banks
What does that entail?
Facing tests of character
I always seem to fail

And as for his ââ?¬Ë?bestââ?¬â?¢ people
Well, Iââ?¬â?¢d like to say ââ?¬Å?no thanksââ?¬
Theyââ?¬â?¢re not exactly my idea
Of being Mrs Banks

[JANE]
I still feel as if Iââ?¬â?¢m dreaming

[MICHAEL]
So much fun in just one day

[JANE & MICHAEL]
When Mary holds your hand
You feel so grand
Your heart starts beating
Like a big brass band

[JANE]
Do look! Neleus is beaming!

[MICHAEL]
Letââ?¬â?¢s hope she will stay

[JANE]
Good night, Neleus.

[JANE & MICHAEL]
Letââ?¬â?¢s hope she will stay
