CHORUS:
Too-ri-ay, oh, too-ri-ay
Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay
VERSES:
I thought I heard my grandpa say
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Today will be a golden day
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Who’s the master chocolatier?
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Hasn’t been seen outside in years
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Who made fudge from Augustus Gloop?
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
The great big greedy nincompoop
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Whose new gum did Violet chew?
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Swelled her up and turned her blue
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Who gave Veruca Salt the boot?
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Threw her straight down the bad nut chute
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
Who shrunk Mike in his TV?
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
And then gave Charlie his factory
(Willy Wonka, Wonka, too-ri-ay)
