Lyrics
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad My father gave me nose a tweak And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word That saved me aching nose
The biggest word I ever heard And this is how it goes:
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully Or it may change your life
One night I said it to me girl
And now me girl's my wife!
She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Information About Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is a word that appears in the song of the same name written by The Sherman Brothers and is featured in the 1964 Disney film Mary Poppins. It is sung by Dick van Dyke and Julie Andrews.
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is often termed as a nonsense word; however, Mary Poppins in the movie uses the word when she can't think of what to say in the circumstances.
The Sherman Brothers apparently took two weeks to create the word, resulting from a series of double-talk. The word can be broken down into separate parts and defined as being the following: super- "above", cali- "beauty", fragilistic- "delicate", expiali- "to atone", and docious- "educable". According to the film version of the song, "the words when said backwards, is read as "Docious-ali-expi-istic-fragi-cali-rupus". Whew, that's really something obscure.
