From the 1964 Disney Musical Motion Picture
Richard M. Sherman & Robert B. Sherman
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
IN EV’RY JOB THAT MUST BE DONE, THERE IS AN ELEMENT OF FUN,
YOU FIND THE FUN AND SNAP! THE JOB’S A GAME,
AND EV’RY TASK YOU UNDERTAKE BECOMES A PIECE OF CAKE,
A LARK! A SPREE! IT’S VERY CLEAR TO SEE...
THAT A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
THE MEDICINE GO DOWN, THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
JUST A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
IN A MOST DELIGHTFUL WAY,
A ROBIN FEATHERING HIS NEST HAS VERY LITTLE TIME TO REST,
WHILE GATHERING HIS BITS OF TWINE AND TWIG,
THOUGH QUITE INTENT IN HIS PURSUIT, HE HAS A MERRY TUNE TO TOOT,
HE KNOWS... A SONG... WILL MOVE THE JOB ALONG,
FOR A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
THE MEDICINE GO DOWN, THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
JUST A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
IN A MOST DELIGHTFUL WAY,
THE HONEY BEES THAT FETCH THE NECTAR FROM THE FLOWERS TO THE COMB
NEVER TIRE OF EVER BUZZING TO AND FRO,
BECAUSE THEY TAKE A LITTLE NIP FROM EV’RY FLOWER THAT THEY SIP,
AND HENCE... THEY FIND... THEIR TASK IS NOT A GRIND,
FOR A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
THE MEDICINE GO DOWN, THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
JUST A SPOONFUL OF SUGAR HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN,
IN A MOST DELIGHTFUL,... IN A MOST DELIGHTFUL,...
IN A MOST DELIGHTFUL WAY.
