Lyrics[]
In a jungle near Mumbai, there's a little hoverfly
Whose wings go at a thousand flaps a second, that's no lie
These microscopic fleas, like chocolate more than leaves
And when asked nicely, lay precisely one little egg in each of these
When it hatches from its shell, it gives a happy yell, "Woohoo!"
How thrilling to be living in a chocolate hotel
It beats its wings with glee, and then as you will see
The chocolate will levitate and float most gracefully
Well, there's chocolate, and there's chocolate
But only Wonka's makes your eyes pop out their sockelets
Put your hand into your pockelet
Get yourself some Wonka chocolate
Come now, I insist
You've never had chocolate like this
No, you've never had chocolate like this
Willy:
So the taxis never stop,
The girls think you're a flop,
You're wet and cold, you're getting old,
Your confidence is shot
Colin:
It's true
Willy:
When people look at you,
They seem to look straight through,
Or like you're something brown they found
Upon the bottom of their shoe
Colin:
Have you been following me?
Willy:
But this should lift the gloom
My giraffe milk macaroon
Just take a chance and you’ll be dancing to a different tune
Goodbye to feeling small
And frightened of it all!
Just eat a few of these and
You'll be feeling ten feet tall!
Willy:
Well, there's chocolate!
Both:
And thеre's chocolate
Only Wonka's makes your confidence sky-rocke-let!
Willy:
Put your hand into your pocke-let
Get yourself some Wonka chocolate
Colin:
Madam, just one kiss?
Barbara:
Yes, please!
Willy:
You've never had chocolate like this
Crowd:
No, we've never had chocolate like this
Lady 1:
Have you tried his new one?
Lady 2:
No!
Lady 1:
Oh, you've got to have a go!
Willy:
Just pop one in and everything
Becomes a Broadway show!
Ladies:
The news that makes you gasp
The jokes that make you laugh
Passengers:
All that you say and do all day
Will be choreographed
Willy:
Lost your hair? Can't think where?
Customer:
Feeling fairly bare up there
Willy:
Don't despair I come prepared,
Behold my hair repair eclair!
It's made from ground vanilla
From the markets of Manila
Take heed, eat more than three,
And you'll end up like a gorilla
Passengers:
Well, there's chocolate...
Customers:
And there's chocolate!
Passengers:
Only Wonka's makes you
Rock around the clock-elet!
Put your hand into your pocke-let!
Get yourself--
Chief:
Oh, put a sock in it!
Make sure they're all frisked!
Have you ever had chocolate like this?
Officer Affable:
I've never had chocolate like this!
Noodle:
Well, there's literate, and illiterate!
Can you tell me what this word is?
Willy:
Not a bit of it
Noodle:
Well, that's a vowel
And that’s a consonant.
Willy:
What's that now?
You're talking nonse-nence.
Noodle:
I should call it quits!
Abacus Crunch:
But you've never sold chocolate like this!
Fickelgruber:
Well there's chocolate...
Chief:
I understand that
Prodnose:
And there's chocolate!
Chief:
Totally true
Slugworth:
Only Wonka drives a hole right through our profi-lets!
Chief:
Yes, but what I’m trying to tell you is that-
Fickelgruber:
If we don’t get on top of this,
We'll go bust!
Chocolatiers:
Choc-apocalypse!
Fickelgruber:
We'll cease to exist!
Chief:
But fellas, you've never had chocolate like this!
Chocolatiers:
No! We've never had chocolate like this!
Crowd:
Well, there's chocolate
And there's chocolate!
Willy:
Only mine will find you
Buying wedding frock-lets!
Colin and Barbara:
We have just tied the knot and it's
All because of Wonka’s chocolate!
Crowd:
Off to a life of bliss!
Willy:
You've never had chocolate like this!
Crowd:
No, we've never had chocolate like this!
Willy:
Have you ever had chocolate like this?
Crowd:
No, we've never had chocolate
No, we've never had chocolate
No, we've never had chocolate like this!
