“The Most Befuddling Thing” is a song from the 1963 Disney animated film “The Sword in the Stone.” It is sung by Merlin the wizard as he tries to teach the young King Arthur (known as “Wart” at the time) about the importance of education and using one’s brain. The song is a playful and lighthearted tune, with Merlin singing about the various ways in which the human mind can be befuddled, and how important it is to keep one’s wits about them in order to avoid being fooled or tricked.
