Willy Wonka! Willy Wonka!

My Grandpa Joe says Willy Wonka's The greatest chocolatier who ever lived So, what happened to him You run a candy shop, do you really not know any of this? How can a man who sells chocolate not Know all the history, I don't understand How can a man who sells chocolate not Know of the mystery, I hold in my hand Willy Wonka! Willy Wonka! Willy Wonka made sweets, most delectable treats Willy Wonka, was the best of the best If the subject is Wonka, it's true, I'm obsessed! Well, what does he look like? Now? He must be like a thousand years old! He probably has a hump! But, my Grandpa Joe sings of treats Beyond words, desired by old and by young Like eggs made of chocolate that turned into Birds! Who perched and sang tunes on your tounge! Willy Wonka! Willy Wonka! Willy Wonka was known from Brazil to Calome Willy Wonka! Lived his life to create! And if I could afford him, I'd be overweight What happened next? He died What? Commercially, he died Well that's hardly the same thing You see, Wonka found out that to his sad surprise, The workers he cherished turned out to be spies! They copied his recipes, spoiled his art They sold all his secrets and worse they broke his heart Willy Wonka turned his back on the world, He shut up shop and he locked his Factory, they say he hates all humanity Nobody thinks to knock? Maybe give the guy a call? Well, it's a factory with no workers, But somehow he stills make chocolate! How does he do it? Nobody ever goes in and nobody ever goes out It's one of the great mysteries of the chocolate making world Well, who cares how the stuff's made as long as kids buy it Oh no, only old people buy his chocolate now What Wonka's old fashioned, He's out of date, he's not even advertised on TV Huh, imagine And so it's been decades and Wonka's grown Old, like I told you it's like he was dead Then I saw this shop, and then lo and behold The explosion you heard was my head Willy Wonka! Willy Wonka! Oh the joy since I've learned his chocolate's returned Now I'm wishing on my dad's luck star To someday be able to buy one bar!
