| 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 |
| 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 bees that fetch the nectar |
| From the flowers to the comb |
| Never tire 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-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h ah!) |
