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
Medicine go down, medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In the most delightful way
verse 2
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
And a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
Medicine go down, medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In the most delightful way
Alright, boys!
verse 3
The honey bees that fetch the nectar from the flowers to the comb
They never tire of buzzing to an' fro
Yeah 'cause they take a little nip from ev'ry flower that they sip
And hence they find their task is not a grind
N.C.
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
Medicine go down, medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In the most delightful way
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
Medicine go down, medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In the most delightful way
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
Medicine go down, medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In the most delightful way
In the most delightful way
