The Perfect Nanny Lyrics

The Perfect Nanny lyrics

Wanted a nanny, for two adorable children



If you want this choice position

Have a cheery disposition

Rosy cheeks, no warts

  (That's the pot I put in)

Play games, all sorts



You must be kind, you must be witty

Very sweet and fairly pretty

Take us on outings, give us treats

Sing songs, bring sweets



Never be cross or cruel

Never give us castor oil or gruel

Love us as a son and daughter

And never smell of barley water

  (I put that in too)



If you won't scold and dominate us

We will never give you cause to hate us

We won't hide your spectacles so you can't see

Put toads in your bed or pepper in your tea



Hurry nanny, many thanks

Sincerely, Jane and Michael banks
