I Love To Laugh

Music and lyrics by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman
Performed by Ed Wynn, Julie Andrews, and Dick Van Dyke


Uncle Albert
I love to laugh
Loud and long and clear
I love to laugh
It's getting worse ev'ry year

The more I laugh
The more I fill with glee
And the more the glee
The more I'm a merrier me
It's embarrassing!
The more I'm a merrier me!

Mary Poppins
Some people laugh through their noses
Sounding something like this "Mmmhmm..." - dreadful!
Some people laugh through their teeth goodness sake
Hissing and fizzing like snakes
Not at all attractive to my way of thinking

Bert
Some laugh too fast
Some only blast - ha!
Others, they twitter like birds
You know, you're as bad as he is.
Then there's the kind
What can't make up their mind

Uncle Albert
When things strike me as funny
I can't hide it inside
And squeak as the squeakelers do
I've got to let go with a ho-ho-ho...
And a ha-ha-ha...too!

All
We love to laugh
Loud and long and clear
We love to laugh
So ev'rybody can hear
The more you laugh
The more you fill with glee
And the more the glee
The more we're a merrier we!
