Some people view work as laborious monotony; tedious enslavement to the system that is drawn out throughout the day, every day, throughout a person's life.

However, depending on their type work, some are able to take a 'Mary Poppins' approach to the dilemma; song, dance, the whole sha-bang. Not in a broadway musical sense, but an easy, when you feel like it carefree way. Incorporate it into a task, and it's not so long or tedious.

Also keeps a kid from complaining when they're involved.

Because of his parents, music and movement were a part of everyday life to Dick Grayson. Not because they were performing it, but because it was fun; a great way to pass the time, it built confidence…most of all, though, he was able to bond and connect with people this way; truly the universal language.

Good or bad at it, it was light hearted fooling around.

From Disney tunes during bath time, to folk songs on sick days, impromptu beat sessions when cleaning house, and anything rowdy to stir up the campfire gatherings - Humming, whistling, singing, tapping a rhythm, they all became a second nature habit to Dick; at an early age he learned how to decorate time. …

...

John hoisted Dick onto his shoulders, recruiting the happy 6 year old as a background singer for 'Uptown Girl';

'Ohh Ohhh, Uptown girl! She's been living in her white bread world!' John dramatically sang and pointed towards Mary, who was 30 feet away from him and talking to Pop Haly.

"As anyone with hot blood can - And now she's looking for a downtown man!" John continued, gesturing widely towards himself on the last line; Dick was copying John's motions as well while providing background vocals.

"And when she knows what she wants from her ti-i-ime," Mary was steadily ignoring them, but they had the attention of Mr. Haly, who was grinning at John and Dick -

" And when she wakes up, and makes up, her mi-i-ind -" Mary finally turned around and gave John an exasperated look; he winked and kept dance-walking towards her.

"She'll see I'm not so tough, just because, I'm in love!" John cued Dick to sing this line, which he did quite nicely as they kept making their way closer to Mary.

"With an Uptown girl - you know I can't afford to buy her pearls! But maybe someday when my ship comes in, she'll understand the kind of guy I've been - and then I'll win!" John and Dick had made it to Mary, and on the last word of their serenade John wrapped his arms around her waist and spun her around in the air, her feet almost hitting Mr. Haly; Mary laughed and called him a goof, while John was giggling just as much as their son.

"So now I'm an uptown girl?" Mary teased John when he set her down again.

"No," he told her, flashing his trademark John Grayson smile; "You're my girl."
