Anything Can Happen is a giant production number from the Musical Adaptation of Mary Poppins. The song begins with Mary Poppins, Jane and Michael Banks explaining the philosophy to Mrs. Banks, then follows as Mr. Banks decides to quit his job before the entire company finally joins Mary, Bert and the children under Mary's giant umbrella.

Lyrics

Mary Poppins
Anything can happen if you let it,
Sometimes things are difficult,
But you can bet it doesn't have to be so,

Jane
Changes can be made,

Michael
You can move a mountain,
If you use a larger spade,

Mary Poppins
Anything can happen it's a marvel,

Jane
You can be a butterfly,

Michael
Or just stay larval,

Jane and Michael
Stretch you're mind beyond fantastic,
Dreams are made of strong elastic,

Mary Poppins
Take some sound advice,
And don't forget it,

Jane, Michael and Mrs. Banks
Anything can happen if you let it!
