A Spoonful Of Sugar
Julie Andrews Lyrics

In every job that must be done
No matter what the job is, there is something enjoyable in it.

There is an element of fun
There is a certain aspect of the job that can be made enjoyable.

You find the fun and snap!
Once you find the fun in the job, it becomes easy to do.

The job's a game
By finding the fun, the job becomes a game to play.

And every task you undertake
For every single task you have to do,

Becomes a piece of cake
It becomes quite easy to complete.

A lark! A spree! It's very clear to see that
It becomes enjoyable, fun and spontaneous.

A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In order to make the medicine more palatable and easier to swallow

The medicine go down, the medicine go down
To make the medicine go down

Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
Just a small quantity is needed to make it more pleasant.

In a most delightful way
It becomes very pleasing and enjoyable for the person taking it.

A robin feathering his nest has very little time to rest
A robin bird building its nest has a lot to do in a little amount of time.

While gathering his bits of twine and twig
While gathering materials to make his nest.

Though quite intent in his pursuit
Even though the bird is very focused on the task at hand.

He has a merry tune to toot
It still finds some fun in it, and continues to sing.

He knows a song will move the job along
The bird believes that the song would help it complete the job faster.

For a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
Similarly, adding a small amount of sugar helps make the job easier.

The medicine go down, the medicine go down
Making it more enjoyable and easier to complete.

Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
A small amount is all you need to make it more pleasant and fun.

In a most delightful way
Making it a much more pleasing and enjoyable experience.

The honey bee that fetch the nectar from the flowers to the comb
Bees that collect nectar from flowers in order to make honey.

Never tired of ever buzzing to and fro
It's an endless job, but bees love doing it so much they never tire of it.

Because they take a little nip from every flower that they sip
This is because they obtain small doses of nectar from various flowers.

And hence (And hence)
This is why.

They find (They find)
They discover.

Their task is not a grind
Their job is not something they consider to be a tiring or unpleasant.

Ah, ah, ah!
An exclamation of excitement and joy.
