"Is she everything that we hoped she'd be?" "It all happened rather quickly." "I mean, I..." "I, uh..." "Will she be firm and give commands?" "Will she mould our young breed?" "Winifred, I think she will." "I think she will!" "In that case, perhaps Ellen should dismiss the others." "The others?" " Ellen!" " Yes, sir?" "Tell the others the position's been filled." " The others, sir?" " Yes, the others." "How many nannies does this house need?" "The position has been filled." "I'm afraid the nursery isn't very tidy." "Rather like a bear pit."

"I have no objection to cheerfulness." "I expect certain decorum." "I don't propose standing idly by and letting Poppins undermine the discipline..." "There's something extremely odd about this household since that woman arrived, and I've noticed it." "Yes, dear." "One thing more." "Yes, dear?" "Have this piano repaired."

"I had hoped that maybe you would..." "Splendid!" "Thank you very much." "Mind the bread and butter." "Now watch, children." "I knew she'd do it..." "A proper tea." "I suppose you'll want me to pour." "If I must, I must." "But stop behaving like laughing hyenas." " Two lumps, Uncle Albert?" " Yes, please." " Bert?" " None for me." "I'm glad you came." "It wouldn't be fun otherwise." "Pour some milk for Michael and yourself." " Nice weather we're having." " Yes." "The other day when it was cold, a friend bought long underwear." "The shopkeeper said, "How long do you want it?"" "My friend said, "From September to March."" "Jane!" "Control yourself!" "Children, please sit up properly." " Your tea, Uncle Albert." " Thank you, dear." "I'm having fun." "I wish you could always stay here." "We'll have to." "There's no way down." "Oh, there is a way." "I hate mentioning it because you must think of something sad." "Do it, please." "Let me see." "I've got the very thing." "Yesterday, when my neighbour answered the bell, a man was there." "The man said, "I'm terribly sorry." "I just ran over your cat."" " Oh, that's sad." " The poor cat." "Then he said, "I'll replace your cat."" "She said, "Okay, but can you catch mice?""

"As you wish." "Mary Poppins, I regret what I must say." "Good evening, George." "Is anything the matter?" "I'm afraid so." "I have to dress for my rally." " I'd rather you be present." " Of course, George." "Mary Poppins, I confess I'm disappointed in you." "She's for it." "I've heard this before." "I don't deny I'm partially responsible for allowing the children's worthless frivolity." "But they must learn the seriousness of life." "But they're only children." "In light of what's happened..."

"As the ship lay in Boston Harbour, colonists dressed as Red Indians boarded, behaved rudely, and threw the tea overboard." "This made the tea unsuitable for drinking, even for Americans." "Precisely." "The loan was defaulted." "Panic ensued within these walls." "There was a run on the bank." "From that time to this, there has not been a run on this bank." "Until today!" "A run, sir, caused by the disgraceful conduct of your son." "Do you deny it?" "No, sir." "I shall gladly assume responsibility for my son." "Why are you waiting?" "Get on with it." "Yes, Father." "No, not that!" "Steady on." "Do you have anything to say?" "Sir, they do say that when there's nothing to say, all you can say..." "Confound it, Banks!" "Do you have anything to say?" "Just one word, sir." "Yes?" "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." "What?" "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." "Mary Poppins was right." "It does make you feel better." "There's no such word." "It is a perfectly good word." "Do you know what there's no such thing as?" "With due respect, there's no such thing as you!" "Impertinence, sir!" "Would you like to hear a marvellous joke?" "A real snapper." "Joke?" "Snapper?" "Jane and Michael meet one day on the street." "Jane says, "I know a man with a wooden leg named Smith."" "Michael says, "What's the name of his other leg?"" "The man's gone mad." "Call the guard!" "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." "I'm feeling better!" "Don't strike my father!" "There's the tuppence, the wonderful, fateful, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious tuppence." "Guard it well." "Good-bye!" "Where are you going?" "I might pop through a chalk pavement picture or seize a horse off a merry-go-round or fly a kite." "Only Poppins knows." " Poppins?" " My nanny." "She sings that ridiculous song." "A spoonful of sugar" "Makes the medicine go down" "The medicine go down" "The medicine..." "Mad as a March hare." "A wooden leg named Smith." "A wooden le..." "Father." "Father!" "Father, come down!" "Daddy!" "Daddy, come back!" "Wind's come around, blowing dead on from the west." "She doesn't care what happens to us." "She only promised to stay till the wind changed, right?" "Bring my hat stand, please." "Mary Poppins, don't you love us?" "What would happen to me if I loved all the children I said goodbye to?" "That's right." "George W. Banks, 17 Cherry Tree Lane." "About 6'1 ", I'd say." "Yes, we rang up his bank first thing." "We discovered he'd been discharged last night." "No telling what he'll do in a fit of despondency." "Wouldn't hurt to drag the river." "There's a spot popular with jumpers." "Really, Ellen!" "He seemed to have been a fine, stable gentleman." "No hanky-panky." "Regular habits, as far as anyone knows." "The medicine go down" "Just a spoonful..." "It's him!" "Or something similar." "A little less noise on the premises." "I can't understand the inspector." "Just a spoonful of sugar" "Makes the medicine go down" "You didn't jump in the river." "How sensible of you." "It's all right, sir." "He's been found." "No, alive, or so I presume." "He's kissing Mrs Banks." "What happened at the bank?" "I've been sacked, flung into the street." "A spoonful of sugar" "Makes the medicine go down" "Gone off his crumpet, that's what he's done." "Dotty as you please." "What were you doing in the cellar?" "First, where are the children?" "Jane!" "Michael!" "Your father's calling." "It doesn't sound like Father." "Jane!" "Michael!" "Run along." "Spit spot." "You won't go, Mary Poppins, will you?" "Spit spot." "He mended it!" "It's wonderful!" "However did you manage it?" "With tuppence for paper and strings" "You can have your own set of wings" "With your feet on the ground" "You're a bird in flight" "With your fist holding tight" "To the string of your kite" "Oh, oh, oh" "Let's go fly a kite" "Up to the highest height" "Let's go fly a kite" "And send it soaring" "Up through the atmosphere" "Up where the air is clear" "Oh, let's go fly a kite" "A proper kite needs a proper tail." "That's what I said." "Go fly a kite." "No, sir." "I don't mean you personally." "Let's go fly a kite" "Up to the highest height" "Let's go fly a kite" "And send it soaring" "Up through the atmosphere" "Up where the air is clear" "Oh, let's go fly a kite" "When you send it flying up there" "All at once you're lighter than air" "You can dance on the breeze" "Over houses and trees" "With your fist holding tight" "To the string of your kite" "Oh, oh, oh" "Let's go fly a kite" "Up to the highest height" "Let's go fly a kite" "And send it soaring" "There you are, Banks." "Congratulations." "Capital bit of humour." ""Wooden leg named Smith,"" "or Jones, whatever it was." "Father died laughing." "Oh, I'm so sorry, sir." "Nonsense." "Nothing to be sorry about." "Never seen him happier." "He left an opening for a new partner." "Congratulations." "Thank you very much indeed, sir." "Up through the atmosphere" "Up where the air is clear" "Oh, let's go" "Fly a kite" "Awk!" "That's gratitude for you." "Didn't even say goodbye." "No, they didn't." "Look at them." "They think more of their father than of you." "That's as it should be." "Don't you care?" "Practically perfect people never permit sentiment to muddle their thinking." "Is that so?" "Mary Poppins, you don't fool me." "Really?" "Really." "I know how you feel." "If you think I'm keeping my mouth shut..." "That will be quite enough, thank you." "Goodbye, Mary Poppins." "Don't stay away too long." "Oh, oh, oh" "Let's go fly a kite" "Up to the highest height" "Let's go fly a kite" "And send it soaring" "Up through the atmosphere" "Up where the air is clear" "Oh, let's go" "Fly a kite"
