Original London Cast of Mary Poppins - Temper, Temper

{JANE, spoken}
What's happening? I don't understand?

{VALENTINE}
I'm sure you don't Jane, you and Michael think you have nothing to learn, but you don't understand the simplest things

{MICHAEL}
Why are you all so big?

{WILLIAM}
You'll find out

{VALENTINE}
Children who lose their temper will lose everything else in the end! Hahahaha...

{TOYS, sung}
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!
Temper, temper!

{VALENTINE}
Temper, temper
Caught you at last
Your quick temper went a bit fast

{VALENTINE + WILLIAM}
This is a place of woe!
This is a place where all wicked children go

{MICHAEL, spoken}
But this is our nursery!

{VALENTINE}
No, this is our nursery!

{TOYS}
Temper, temper! That was your crime
We've been watching you for some time!
We knew that you'd appear
We knew your temper tantrums would lead you here

{JANE, spoken}
Stop, leave us alone!

{WILLIAM}
Pray silence for the judge!

{MICAHEL}
What judge!?

{WILLIAM}
All rise!

{MR. PUNCH, sung}
Temper, temper, silence in court
Is this not the story you thought?
You have to stand on trial
You will not see your parents for quite some while

{TOYS}
Children who refuse to learn will not return
Children who refuse to learn will not return!

{MR. PUNCH, spoken}
Are you Jane and Michael Banks?

{JANE}
Yes, and we live at seventeen Cherry Tree Lane!

{MONKEY}
Not anymore you don't! You're at Destiny's crossroads!

{MR. PUNCH}
You stand accused of the wanton loss of a most precious commodity
- namely, your temper

{VALENTINE}
Call the first witness!

{MONKEYS}
Call the first witness!

{WILLIAM}
Call the first witness!

{DOLL, sung}
Temper, temper
Think of the cost
Of a temper once it's been lost
You cannot get it back!
It's no excuse to say that your mood was black

{TOYS}
Black! Black!

{VALENTINE, spoken}
Call the surprise witness!

{MONKEYS}
Call the surprise witness!

{WILLIAM}
Call the surprise witness!

{JACK IN THE BOX}
Surprise!

{ALL}
Aaaah!

{MR. PUNCH}
Yes?

{JACK IN THE BOX}
I saw them your Honor - they were fighting over Valentine

{MR. PUNCH}
Go on

{JACK IN THE BOX}
And...and tore his arm, again!

{TOYS, sung}
Children who refuse to learn will not return
Children who refuse to learn will not return!
Temper! Temper!

Temper, temper, temper, temper, temper, temper!

{MR. PUNCH, spoken}
What is your verdict?

{TOYS, sung}
Guilty!

{MR. PUNCH, sung}
You stand there bold as brass
You face the stiffest a sentence this court can pass

{TOYS}
Children who refuse to learn will not return
Children who refuse to learn will not return!
Temper, temper!
