Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
[Verse 2]
Because I was afraid to speak when I was just a lad
Me father gave me nose a tweak and told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word that saved me aching nose
The biggest word you ever heard and this is how it goes
[Verse 3]
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
[Verse 4]
He traveled all around the world and everywhere he went
He'd use his word and all would say there goes a clever gent
When dukes and Maharajas pass the time of day with me
I say me special word and then they ask me out to tea
[Verse 5]
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Um diddle, diddle, um diddle aye
Now you can say is backwards which is
Dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupus
But that's going a bit too far don't you think? (indubitably)
[Verse 6]
So when the cat has got your tongue there's no need for dismay (Mary)
Just summon up this word and then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully or it can change your life
[Verse 7]
For example?
Yes?
One night I said it to me girl, and now my girl's me wife
Oh, and a lovely thing she is, too
[Verse 8]
She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
