Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Je me demandais bien ce que j'allais partager avec vous, et je me suis rappelé cette charmante petite chose, la chanson Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious extrait de la comédie musicale Mary Poppins, elle-même inspirée du film éponyme de Walt Disney.

Mary Poppins:

When trying to express oneself, it's frankly quite absurd,

To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word.

A little spontaniaty keeps conversation keen,

You need to find a way to say, precisely what you mean...

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Even though the sound of it is something quite atrosicous!

If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Mary Poppins:

When Stone Age men were chatting, merely grunting would suffice.

Bert:

Now if they heard this word, they might have used it once or twice!

Mrs. Corry:

I'm sure Egyptian pharoahs would have grasped it in a jiff,

Then every single pyramid would bear this hieroglyph;

Oh!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Say it and wild animals would not seem so ferocious!

Mary Poppins:

Add some further flourishes, it's so ro-co-co-coscious!

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Bert:

The Druids could have carved it on their mighty monoliths!

Mrs. Corry:

I'm certain the ancient Greeks would have used it in their midst!

Mary Poppins:

I'm sure the Roman Empire only entered the abyss,

Because those Latin scholars never had a word like this!

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Mary Poppins:

If you say it softly the effect can be hypnoscious!

Bert:

Check your breath before you speak, in case it's halitotious!

Ensemble:

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Mary Poppins (spoken):

Of course you can say it backwards, which is Suoicodilaipxecitsiligarfilacrepus!

Michael (spoken):

She may be tricky, but she's bloody good!

Mary Poppins:

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!

Bert:

Pick out those eighteen consonants and sixteen vowels as well,

And put them in an order which is very hard to spell...

Mary Poppins:
