Come with me and you’ll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you’ll see into your imagination
We’ll begin with a spin
Trav’ling in a world of my creation
What we’ll see will defy explanation!
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world, there’s nothing to it.
There is no place I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there you’ll be free
If you truly wish to be!

Golden Age of Chocolate

Once upon a choc’late time
A long long choc’late time ago,
The Golden Age of Choc’late began.
I know, ‘cos I was there.
When it comes to choc’late, he’s a many flavored man, you know,
‘Cos that’s the age of choc’late he ran
With oh, such style and flair!
And the golden age of choc’late has lasted all these years,
The golden stage of choc’late that ev’ry child reveres.
But soon I’ll be retiring,
To make way for someone new.
Some bright spark I’ll be hiring, but who?
But who, but who!
But who!
Whatever your opinion is about me,
The choc’late world could not survive without me!
There’d be no more choc’late ripples or choc’late tipples,
Choc’late ruffles or choc’late truffles,
Choc’late kisses for sweet young misses,
Soft and creamy, completely dreamy,
Or choc’late ices, ’cause choc’late’s crisis
Will grow and grow and grow
The day that I retire, I know (no no no no!)
No, Willy Wonka just can’t go!
There’s be no more
Choc’late squiggles or choc’late giggles (no more giggles)
Choc’late whirlies or choc’late swirlies (no more swirlies)
Choc’late twirlies for all you girlies (no more twirlies)
Choc’late bagels or choc’late bugles (no more bugles)
Or choc’late bubbles, ‘cos choc’late’s troubles (Choc’late’s troubles will)
Grow and grow and grow!
The day that I retire (the day that he retires)
I know (We’ll know, no no no no!)
No, Willy Wonka just can’t go!
‘Cos the golden age of choc’late has lasted all these years,
The golden stage of choc’late that ev’ry child reveres.
There’s a golden page of choc’late hist’ry we must write somehow,
For the golden age of choc’late to make life sweeter now!

The Candy Man

I can’t stop eating sweets
All those wonderful Willy Wonka treats
You can keep the others
‘Cos me
I’m a Wonkerer
When it comes to candy
Willy’s the conquerer! (the conquerer!)
Who can take a sunrise, sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in choc’late and a miracle or two
The Candy Man, the Candy Man can
Who can take a rainbow, wrap it with a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make a strawb’ry lemon pie
The Candy Man (the Candy Man), the Candy Man can (the Candy Man can)
The Candy Man can ‘cos he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good.
The Candy Man makes ev’rything he bakes satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
Who can take tomorrow, dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream
The Candy Man (the Candy Man), the Candy Man can (the Candy Man can)
The Candy Man can ‘cos he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
And the world tastes good ‘cos the Candy Man thinks it should.

Ve give him fruit juice for breakfast plus melons und mangoes und cereals, bananas und cream!
Zen fried eggs mit bacon, tomahtoes und mushrooms, mit bread rolls und buns by ze ream!
Und coffee und toast spread mit butter und marmalahd, sveetmeats und neat treats galore!
And what does Augustus do when breakfast’s through?
I eat more, I eat more!
Between meals ze cook feeds me all kinds of goodies like choc’lates und puddings und snacks!
You must understand young Augustus is my little piggy, zere’s nuhzing he lacks!
Mom has Vonka bars sent in in sacks!
‘Cos zey help little Gussie relax!
Then dinner?
Of course, is his meal of ze day ven Augustus comes right off his diet….
It’s hamburgers, hot dogs, und ten tons of french fries, und if I vant more, zey supply it!
Augustus keeps eating, und eating, und eating!
Until he subsides to ze floor….
And then when he’s finally back on his feet, the kid can’t even get through the door?
Und zat’s vy Augustus has lived in ze dining room, right from ze day he vas four!
So what does the poor little lad do all night to prevent life becoming a bore?
I eat more! I eat more!

You’ve nothing to lose so why not choose to think positive?
Whenever my luck is on the blink, I think positive!
Whenever I’m feeling down and out and don’t know what to do,
I never give way to fear and doubt,
‘Cos thinking positive sees me through!
Whenever my stars are out of sync, I think positive!
I write my thoughts down in purple ink, and think positive!
Remember this song when things go wrong,
Then you’ll know what to do!
In no time you’ll be thinking positive too!
Whenever I think I’m in the drink I think…POSITIVE!
Whenever my luck goes down the sink I think…POSITIVE!
Whenever you’re feeling low or lost, just take a tip from me!
You’re wasting time to count the cost,
‘Cos thinking positive, that comes free!
That’s right!
Positive is the place to be!
Whenever I’m teetering on the brink, I think positive!
The moment I do, I’m in the pink, I think positive!
Remember this song when things go wrong,
Then you’ll know what to do!
In no time you’ll be thinking positive too!
Yeah!

Some kids like electric trains,
And some kids like to use their brains
To earn a university degree!
I don’t share their thirst for knowledge.
I don’t need to go to college.
Me, I see it all on TV!
Some kids like to sing an’ dance,
An’ some kids go to Paris, France,
While others visit Washington, D.C.
I don’t learn a single think,
‘Cos I can download anything.
It’s all on my computer for free!
Some kids go to baseball games,
And other kids have useless aims
Like ten days at a boyscout jamboree.
While wimpy kids read books of verse,
I PLAY “DESTROY THE UNIVERSE”!!!
No one has Nintendo games like me!
Some kids like to fly balloons,
Or play the latest top ten tunes,
While others wanna surf in Waikiki.
I can visit London, Rome,
An’ Tokyo without leavin’ home.
Take a spaceship to the moon,
An’ back on any afternoon.
Yes, we can do it all from A to Z.
‘Cos we got our computer!
All our stuff is wireless!
We can see it all on TV!
(On TV, on TV, on TV…)
On TV!

Cheer up, Charlie.
Give me a smile!
What happened to the smile I used to know?
Don’t you know your grin has always been my sunshine?
Let that sunshine show!
Come on, Charlie.
No need to frown!
Deep down you know tomorrow is your toy.
When the days get heavy, never pit-a-pat ‘em!
Up and at ‘em, boy!
Some day, sweet as a song,
Charlie’s lucky day will come along!
‘Til that day you’ve gotta hold on strong, Charlie!
Up on top is right where you belong!
Look up, Charlie,
You’ll see a star!
Just follow it and keep your dreams in view!
Pretty soon the skies are gonna clear up, Charlie!
Cheer up, Charlie, do!
Cheer up, Charlie!
Come on, Charlie!
Just be glad you’re you!
Cheer up, Charlie!

On the one hand, you are just a bar of choc’late,
No diff’rent from the rest!
On the other hand, you’re the superstar of choc’late,
The golden key to Willy Wonka’s treasure chest!
Whichever you are, I’m hoping for the best!
Think positive! Think positive! Think positive!
Look what happened! See what happened!
That’s what happens when you’re thinking positive!
Think positive!

I never thought my life could be anything but catastrophe!
But suddenly I begin to see a bit of good luck for me!
‘Cos I’ve got a Golden Ticket!
I’ve got a golden twinkle in my eye.
I never had a chance to shine,
Never a happy song to sing.
But suddenly half the world is mine!
What an amazing thing!
‘Cos I’ve got a Golden Ticket!
I’ve got a golden sun up in the sky!
I never thought I’d see the day
When I would face the world and say,
“Good morning. Look at the sun!”
I never thought that I would be
Slap in the lap of luxury!
‘Cos I’d have said it couldn’t be done!
But it CAN be done!
Yes, it can be done!
We never ever dared to think
That there would be a golden time
When bang! In a glorious golden blink,
Our lives would become sublime!
‘Cos I’ve got a Golden Ticket!
I’ve got a Golden Ticket
I’ve got a golden chance to make my way!
And with a Golden Ticket it’s a golden day!

n the Wonka choc’late fact’ry there are sev’ral thousand rooms. (Ooh!)
I’ll show you what some of them are!
In this room here are the luminous lollies for eating in bed at night!
And in that room there the exploding sweets for when enemies start a fight!
In this room here is the rock candy mine.
They say it’s three miles deep!
And in that room there are the marshmallow pillows to munch when you just can’t sleep!
Little rooms, big rooms, high rooms, low rooms,
Seventeen hundred candy showrooms!
Small rooms, tall rooms, bathrooms, ballrooms,
And you’ll find choc’late in almost all rooms!
In this room here are the choc’late cows from which we get choc’late milk!
And in that room there are the hot ice creams!
For a cold day, smooth as silk!
And in ev’ry room are choc’late miracles!
Treats beyond compare!
Driving rivals to despair!
You should see them tear their hair!
And all because of…
This room here! And this room here!
And this room here! Und dees room here!
And this room here!
Oh, yes! And that room there!

Oompa loompa doom pa dee doo!
I’ve got a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doom pa dee dee!
If you are wise, you’ll listen to me
Vat do you get ven you guzzle down sveets?
Eating as much as an elephant eats?
Vat are you at, getting terribly fat?
What do you think will come of that?
I don’t like the look of it!
Oompa loompa doom pa dee dah!
If you’re not greedy you will go far!
You will live in happiness too!
Like the Oompa loompa doom pa dee doo!

There’s no knowing where we’re going!
There’s no earthly way to know!
So we’re simply to and froing,
Slowly getting vertigo!
To the south the wind is blowing,
To the north there may be snow!
To the west the moon is glowing,
To the east a cock may crow!
Since we show no sign of slowing,
Someone must know where we are!
But no destination’s showing,
So it’s all a bit bizarre!
Though our mood is easy going,
Like a game of tic-tac-toe,
We must cease this dilly dallying,
Shilly shallying to and fro.
It’s no myst’ry where we’re going,
Unlike Edgar Allen Poe!
Quite apart from our not knowing,
It’s the only place to go!

I only have one dream in life,
There’s very little to it,
To own one stick of lifelong gum
And all life long to chew it!
I’d chew it all through childhood.
I’d chew it when I wed!
If I survive to ninety-five,
I’ll chew it till I’m dead!
But this gum here’s much better than that one!
This gum here is a three course dinner!
Pea soup, roast beef an’ blueberry ice cream!
Blueberry is the nicest ice cream!
You may feel fat,
But in face, you’re thinner!
Even after a three course dinner!
Yo, Violet, you’re so busted!
That gum is gonna do it!
Her candy fame gone down the drain!
I asked her not to chew it!
Too late, Willy! Nothin’ to it!
‘Cos I know just how to chew it!
There is no need to pooh-pooh it!
All I have to do is do it!
Violet, it’s so bad for you!
Yo, Violet, dude, you’re turnin’ blue!
Violet, what you gonna do?
Just stand there singing “Am I Blue?”
Yes, she’s turning blue, it’s true!
Oh, Violet, you are now bright blue!
That rotten lousy gum, I knew it!
Blueberry blue and fat as suet!
I guess I blew it!
Blew it! Blew it! BLEW IT!!

Oompa loompa doom pa dee doo!
I’ve got another puzzle for you!
Oompa loompa doom pa dee dee!
If you are wise, you’ll listen to me!
Gum chewing’s fine when it’s once in a while.
It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile!
But it’s repulsive, revolting and wrong!
Chewing and chewing all day long!
The way that a cow does!
Oompa loompa doom pa dee dah!
Given good manners, you will go far!
You will live in happiness too!
Like the Oompa loompa doom pa dee doo!

I’m flying! I’m flying!
There’s no sensation that’s quite as sensat’nal as flying!
Thrilling, fulfilling, and high’r educat’nal as flying!
It’s inspirational, and recreational, trying!
Way, way up there in mid-air, to be touching the sky!
Which I guess is why there is no feeling that’s quite like the feeling of flying!
Bumping your head on the ceiling of what’s up above!
It’s so appealing, I’m reeling at my death-defying!
Flying, I love!
There is no high that’s as high as the high I am trying!
Flying, I…

I want a feast.
I want a bean feast!
Cream buns, and donuts, and fruitcakes with no nuts,
So good you could go nuts!
Give ‘em to me…now!
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter.
I want a ton of ice cream!
And if I don’t get the things I am after,
I’m going to scream!
I want the works.
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes
And sweets and surprises
Of all shapes and sizes, and now!
Don’t care how!
I want it now!
Don’t care how!
I want it now!!!!

What do you get from a glut of T.V.?

Why don’t you try simply reading a book?
Or, could you just not bear to look?

You’ll get no commercials!

Now Charlie makes everything he bakes satisfying and delicious!
Talk about your childhood wishes!
You can even eat the dishes!
Oompa loompa doom pa dee doo!
I’ve got a final puzzle for you!
Oompa loompa doom pa dee dee!
If you are wise you’ll listen to me!
There is a problem with lots of our youth!
Not ev’rybody likes telling the truth!
Telling the truth starts a beautiful buzz.
Isn’t it nice when someone does?
It could be contagious!
Who can take a sunrise (who can take a sunrise)
Sprinkle it with dew (sprinkle it with dew)
Cover it in choc’late and a miracle or two?
Charlie can! (Charlie can!)
I know that he can! (We know that he can!)
We know that he can ‘cos he’ll mix it all with love
And make the world taste good!
And the world tastes good
‘Cos the Candy Man thinks it should!
Thinks it should!
