Original London Cast of Mary Poppins - The Perfect Nanny

{JANE}
If you want this choice position
Have a cheery disposition
Rosy cheeks, no warts

{MICHAEL, spoken}
That's the part I put in!

{JANE, sung}
Play games, all sorts
You must be kind, you must be witty
Very sweet and fairly pretty

{MR. BANKS, spoken}
Of all the ridiculous ideas -

{MRS. BANKS}
Oh George, please!

{JANE, sung}
Take us on outings, give us treats

{MICHAEL}
Sing songs, bring sweets

Never be cross or cruel
Never give us castor oil or gruel - eugh!

{JANE}
Love us as a son and daughter -

{MICHAEL}
And never smell of barley water

(spoken)
I put that one in too!

{JANE, sung}
If you won't scold and dominate us
We will never give you cause to hate us

We won't hide your spectacles so you can't see

{MICHAEL}
Put toads in your bed, or pepper in your tea

{JANE}
Hurry, Nanny
Many thanks

{BOTH}
Sincerely

{JANE}
Jane

{MICHAEL}
And Michael!

{BOTH}
Banks
