Here are the lyrics to the song written by Richard M and Robert B Sherman for the movie Mary Poppins (1964).

Mary Poppins:

When trying to express oneself, it's frankly quite absurd,

To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word.

A little spontaniaty keeps conversation keen,

You need to find a way to say, precisely what you mean...

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Even though the sound of it is something quite atrosicous!

If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Mary Poppins:

When Stone Age men were chatting, merely grunting would suffice.

Bert:

Now if they heard this word, they might have used it once or twice!

Mrs. Corry:

I'm sure Egyptian pharoahs would have grasped it in a jiff,

Then every single pyramid would bear this hieroglyph;

Oh!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Say it and wild animals would not seem so ferocious!

Mary Poppins:

Add some further flourishes, it's so ro-co-co-coscious!

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Bert:

The Druids could have carved it on their mighty monoliths!

Mrs. Corry:

I'm certain the ancient Greeks would have used it in their midst!

Mary Poppins:

I'm sure the Roman Empire only entered the abyss,

Because those Latin scholars never had a word like this!

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Mary Poppins:

If you say it softly the effect can be hypnoscious!

Bert:

Check your breath before you speak, in case it's halitotious!

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Mary Poppins (spoken):

Of course you can say it backwards, which is Suoicodilaipxecitsiligarfilacrepus!

Michael (spoken):

She may be tricky, but she's bloody good!

Mary Poppins:

So when the cat has got your tongue, there's no need for dismay!

Just summon up this word and then you've got a lot to say!

Bert:

Pick out those eighteen consonants and sixteen vowels as well,

And put them in an order which is very hard to spell...

Mary Poppins:

S-u-p-e-r

C-a-l-i-f-

R-a-g-i-l-

Jane and Michael:

I-s-t-i-c-e-x-p-i-a-l-i-d-o-c-i-o-u-s!

Ensemble:

S-u-p-e-r

C-a-l-i-f-

R-a-g-i-l-

I-s-t-i-c-e-x-p-i-a-l-i-d-o-c-i-o-u-s!

S-u-p-e-r

C-a-l-i-f-

R-a-g-i-l-

I-s-t-i-c-e-x-p-i-a-l-i-d-o-c-i-o-u-s!

S-u-p-e-r

C-a-l-i-f-

R-a-g-i-l-

I-s-t-i-c-e-x-p-i-a-l-i-d-o-c-i-o-u-s!

Bert (spoken):

Here we go!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Even though the sound of it is something quite atroscious!

If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,

Supercalifragilistic-

Jane and Michael:
