What bird sings along with Mary Poppins in 'A Spoonful of Sugar'?

Answer 1

She is singing it to the children in the nursery while putting them to bed.

She turns a water-filled globe which contains a model of St Paul's cathedral in London, on the steps of which sits the beggar woman selling bird seed.

Answer 2

In a sort of park that is close to- maybe across the street from the Church, which is Saint Paul"s Cathedral, a very real landmark that the kids never quite actually visit- it struck me this was a rather sneaky and bold attack on religion- particularily the sequence where it starts to rain ( and the church would offer a respite) no Mary starts up her magic- and bang- a nonexistent live-animal Merry go Round. Don"t like it.

Answer 3

Here they are :D

Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's

The little old bird woman comes

In her own special way to the people she call,

"Come, buy my bags full of crumbs;

Come feed the little birds,

Show them you care

And you'll be glad if you do

Their young ones are hungry

Their nests are so bare

All it takes is tuppence from you

Feed the birds, tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag

Feed the birds," that's what she cries

While overhead, her birds fill the skies

All around the cathedral the saints and apostles

Look down as she sells her wares

Although you can't see it,

You know they are smiling

Each time someone shows that he cares

Though her words are simple and few

Listen, listen, she's calling to you

"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"
