In every job that must be done There is an element of fun You find the fun and snap! The job's a game And every 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 bee that fetch the nectar from the flowers to the comb Never tired of ever buzzing to and fro Because they take a little nip from every flower that they sip And hence (And hence) They find (They find) Their task is not a grind Ah, ah, ah!
