Mary Poppins - Original London Cast — The Perfect Nanny lyrics

Lyrics

If you want this choice position
Have a cheery disposition
Rosy cheeks, no warts
Play games, all sorts
You must be kind, you must be witty
Very sweet and fairly pretty
Take us on outings, give us treats
Sing songs, bring sweets
Never be cross or cruel
Never give us Castor oil or gruel
Love us as a son and daughter
And never smell of barley water
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
Put toads in your bed or pepper in your tea
Hurry nanny, many thanks
Sincerely, Jane and Michael Banks
