Brimstone and Treacle (Part 2)

Perhaps she's killed everyone. Perhaps they're all dead.

Not like that you STUPID boy

Well there not all dead

Whats that noise?

It's a bird! I might've known
Did she, well frankly, that's not a surprise
Locked in this cage and not free in the skies
For two years?
How shameful
Yes, of course, that's a field I know well
An hour, no longer
Your wings will grow stronger
Once you are free from this cell

What kind of bird is it?

A lark. You are seeing a lark in a cage for the first time, and the last. My pleasure. Oh, don't mention it.

I'm going downstairs to fetch Koruso my lark. You stay there and scrub the floors again
So, children. You've decided to come crawling back, have you? Well, I think we know what's needed now.
Brimstone and treacle, my favourite liquor
That will make runaways stop
Impudent children respond so much quicker
When forced to drink every last drop

Is this what you're looking for?

Who are you?

I'm Mary Poppins.

Mary Poppins? But you left. Without notice.

And I've come back without notice.

I see. And what do you expect me to do?

Pack.

Pack?!
Silly little girl with your new-fangled methods
I bring up children so they know their place
Standing for tradition I govern my charges

Mishandled charges blow up in your face

I brought up their father

Well that I don't doubt
You must be so proud
At the way he turned out

A shining example, a pillar

A post
They all have their problems
But him more than most

Koruso? Where is my lark? Koruso :(You've let my little lark out of his cage
Now you will bear the full brunt of my rage
Brimstone and treacle for you
Brimstone and treacle for you

Just a spoonful of sugar

Brimstone and treacle for you

Just a spoonful of sugar

Brimstone and treacle for you

Just a spoonful of sugar
Ah...
Ah...
Ah...

I recognise fully
That you are a bully
Who views cruel deeds as a perk
Well, now here's a catch
Because you've met your match
Brimstone and treacle

Brimstone and treacle

Brimstone and treacle

Brimstone and treacle

Won't work
