Paroles de la chanson trip a little light fantastic par mary poppins
let's say you're lost in a park, sure

You can give in to the dark or

You can trip a little light fantastic with me

When you're alone in your room

Your choice's just embrace the gloom

Or you can trip a little light fantastic with me

For if you hide under the covers

You might never see the day

But if a spark can start inside your heart

Then you can always find the way

So when life is getting dreary

Just pretend that you're a leerie

As you trip a little light fantastic with me

(spoken)

"what's a leerie"

"why it's what we lamplighters call ourselves of course. leeries trip the lights and lead the way!"

Now when you're stuck in the mist, sure

You can struggle and resist or

You can trip a little light fantastic with me

Now say you're lost in the crowd, well

You can stamp and scream out loud or

You can trip a little light fantastic with me

And when the fog comes rolling in, just

Keep your feet upon the path

Mustn't mope and frown or worst lie down

Don't let it be your epitaph

So when life is getting scary, be your own illuminary

Who can shine the light for all the world to see

As you trip a little light fantastic with me

(spoken)

"a leerie loves the edge of night, though dim to him the world looks bright, he's got the gift of second sight"

"to trip a little light fantastic"

"a leerie's job's to light the way"

"to tame the night and make it day"

"we mimic the moon, yes that's our aim"

"for we're the keepers of the flame

And if you're deep inside the tunnel

When there is no end in sight

Well just carry on until the dawn

It's darkest right before the light

As you trip a little light fantastic

Won't you trip a little light fantastic

Come on, trip a little light fantastic with me

(dance break #1)

Oy, oy, oy

(spoken)

"come along, join us in a bit of a kick and prance"

"what did he say?"

"kick and prance, it means dance! it's leerie speak. you don't say the words you mean, you say something that rhymes, only. here, i'll show you how it works

"angus, give us your weep and wail!

To the rest of ya, that means 'tale'"

"i was short of a sheet"

"it was in the street"

"just a tumble down a sink"

"just to get himself a drink"

"then i pinch what's better"

"he grabbed his ladder"

"he smiled and smirked, to work!"

"you see there's nothing to it"

"can you speak leerie mary poppins?"

"can i speak leerie?"

"course she can, she's mary poppins!"

"can we do it with you?"

"please!"

"oh very well then"

"children, tell us yer story tale"

"give us your weep and wail!"

"well, we had this bowl"

"rabbit in the hole"

"that fell and broke"

"bicycle spoke"

"so we took it to a shop"

"like a lollipop"

"and went upside down"

"that's a circus clown"

"then went to the bank"

"rattle and clank"

"got lost in the fog"

"lump on the log"

"till we found a friend"

"to stand and defend"

"who took us on a trip"

"snapped a horse's whip"

"and we tripped a little light fantastic!"

"now that sounds a little bit bombastic"

"but they tripped the light"

"we tripped a light"

"let's trip a little light fantastic!"

(dance break #2)

Join us mary poppins!

Hey

(spoken)

You've got it, now let's get you all back home

Now if you're life is getting foggy

That's no reason to complain

There's so much in store, inside the door

At 17 cherry tree lane

So when troubles are incessant

Simply be more incandescent

For your light comes with a lifetime guarantee

As you trip a little light fantastic

Won't you trip a little light fantastic

Come on, trip a little light fantastic with me

(went to the bank! rattle and clank!

Met with the boss! pitch and toss!

Got lost in the fog! lump on a log!)

Trip a little light fantastic!
