(And where would we like to go on this fine, fine day?)
(The Royal Doulton Music Hall, please)
(Where?)
(What's that?)
(We're on the brink of an adventure, children)
(Don't spoil it with too many question)
In the nursery, you were never by yourself
There was quite another world upon your shelf (hold on)
Where each day crowds make their way upon the sun's descent
To a mythical, mystical, never quite logistical tent
Yes, in this
Dilly dynamical simply ceramical Royal Doulton bowl
There's a cuddly and curious, furry and furious animal watering hole
Where the monkeys and hummingbirds know the tunes and the words
Every beast large and small
Loves the very top drawable, always encorable Royal Doulton Music Hall
(Ooh, that one tickled my tail)
(Nearly there, Mary Poppins)
Yes in this
Marvelous, mystical, rather sophistical Royal Doulton bowl
There's a lot of birds queuing up, a lot of hams chewing up
Scenery they swallow whole
There are lots of cats tuning strings
Nightingales in the wings
Waiting for their big drum roll
At the simply sensational, standing ovational Royal Doulton Music Hall
(Here we are)
(But, where's the music hall?)
(Oh yes that, silly me)
(Step right up)
(Step right up)
(Wow)
(Goodness)
(How on Earth did she do that?)
(One thing you should know about Mary Poppins, she never explains anything)
(Come on)
(Hurry, hurry)
(Get tickets while you can, for the one night only, one and only)
(Mary Poppins, what an honor it is to have you join us this evening)
(Thank you)
(And who is this I see? Why, it's John, Annabel and Georgie Banks)
(You know us?)
(Of course, everyone knows the Banks children)
(Hurry along now, get yourself some peanuts and candyfloss and go right on in)
(May we, Mary Poppins?)
(Yes)
(Just keep away from the edge of the bowl)
At the highly unclaimable, nearly untamable
Lavishing, praisable, always rephrasable
Royal Doulton Music Hall
