I know the Willy Wonka welcome song, I need the lyrics to Augustus Gloop, Violet Beuregard, Varuca Sault and Mike Teavee. But i’ll take the WWS to complete the collection.

Just buy the soundtrack, friend.

August 26, 2005 at 11:40 pm #54958mootumParticipantI think one of the lyrics is printed incorrectly in the CD booklet: the end of Mike Teavee is written as “…if we can get him back to size / but if we can’t, it serves him right.”
However, I think it’s actually “…if we can get him back HIS HEIGHT”. That’s how it’s written in Roald Dahl’s book, and it sounds like that’s what’s being sung.
August 28, 2005 at 4:46 pm #54965Ryan KeaveneyKeymasterI thought the Oompahs were singing “get him back to size”.

August 28, 2005 at 5:37 pm #54966sdlively27ParticipantI had been wondering that as well..
As well as in Wonk’s Welcome song
I thought they said “Amazing Chocolate Genius” but the line in the cover says Amazing Chocolatier”
Well I thought I would ask.
August 28, 2005 at 5:45 pm #54967mootumParticipantRoald Dahl wrote the lyric as “…if we can get him back his height / but if we can’t, it serves him right.” (I checked the book just to make sure!)
I know Elfman changed some of Dahl’s words here and there for the movie, but to me, it really sounds like that’s what the Oompahs are singing… even though that’s not what the CD booklet says. Plus, “height” and “right” rhyme better than “size” and “right.”
But that’s just my opinion! I could be wrong!
August 29, 2005 at 9:38 pm #54982strongballsParticipantI bought the last copy of the Cd and have the lryiic but also noted that there were no Vocal credits, could that mean Danny did all the vocal work himself on the songs?
August 30, 2005 at 1:25 am #54988KipobeParticipantI think that was implied.
September 2, 2005 at 11:56 pm #55030Spot3282ParticipantHey, I’m new here but if you still need to the lyrics go here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367594/quotes and scroll about 3/4 of the way down and they are there.
