Did she? Well, frankly, that's not a surprise
Locked in this cage and not free in the skies
For two years? How shameful!
Yes, of course, that's a field I know well
An hour, no longer, your wings will grow stronger
Once you are free from this cell
What kind of bird is it?
A lark. You are seeing a lark in a
Cage for the first time and the last
My pleasure. Oh, don't mention it
I am going downstairs to fetch Caruso, my lark
You, get back up there and clean that grate again
Oh, you two. So you've decided to come crawling back, have you?
Well, I think we know what's needed now
(Begins singing)
Brimstone and treacle, my favourite liquor
That will make runaways stop
Impudent children respond so much quicker
When forced to drink every last drop
Is this what you're looking for?
Who are you?
I'm Mary Poppins
Mary Poppins? But you left without notice
And I've come back without notice
I see. What do you expect me to do?
Pack
Pack? You insolent young person!
How dare you speak to me in this way!
Silly little girl with your newfangled methods
I bring up children so they know their place
Standing for tradition, I govern my charges
Mishandled charges blow up in your face
I brought up their father
Well, that I don't doubt
You must be so proud
At the way he turned out
A shining example, a pillar
A post! They all have their problems
But him more than most
Caruso! Where's my lark?
Caruso!
You let my little lark out of his cage
Now you will bear the full brunt of my rage

Brimstone and treacle for you
Brimstone and treacle for you
Just a spoonful of sugar
Brimstone and treacle for you
Just a spoonful of sugar
Brimstone and treacle for you
Just a spoonful of sugar
I recognise fully that you are a bully
Who views cruel deeds as a perk
Well, now here's the catch
Because you've had your bath
Brimstone and treacle
Brimstone and treacle
Brimstone and treacle
Brimstone and treacle
