Track A2

(spoken)
"The Perfect Nanny" as sung by Jane and Michael
If you want this choice position
Have a cheerful disposition
Rosy cheeks
[ROBERT B. SHERMAN]
No warts
[RICHARD M. SHERMAN]
Play games, all sorts
You must be kind, you must be witty
Very sweet and very pretty
Teach us tricks
[ROBERT B. SHERMAN]
Give us treats
[RICHARD M. SHERMAN]
Sing songs, bring sweets
Never be cross or cruel
Never give us castor oil or gruel
Love us as a son and daughter
[ROBERT B. SHERMAN]
And never, never smell of barley water
[RICHARD M. SHERMAN]
If you won't scold and dominate us
We will never give you cause to hate us
We won't hide your spectacles so you can't see
[ROBERT B. SHERMAN]
Put frogs in your bed
[RICHARD M. SHERMAN]
Or pepper in your tea
Hurry, nanny. Many thanks
Sincerely, Jane-
[BOTH]
