Once, there was a Wicked Witch
|
In the lovely land of Oz
|
And a wickeder, wickeder, wickeder,
|
Wickeder Witch, there never was
|
She filled the folks in Munchkinland
|
With terror and with dread
|
'Til one fine day from Kansas way,
|
A cyclone caught a house that brought
|
The Wicked, Wicked Witch her doom
|
As she was flying on her broom
|
For the house fell on her head
|
And the coroner pronounced her dead
|
And through the town, the joyous news was spread
|
|
Ding dong! The Witch is dead
|
Which old witch, the Wicked Witch!
|
Ding dong! The Wicked Witch is dead
|
|
Wake up, you sleepy-head
|
Rub your eyes, get out of bed
|
Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead
|
|
She's gone where the goblins go, below
|
Below, below, yo-ho
|
Let's open up and sing
|
And ring the bells out
|
|
Ding dong! The merry-oh
|
Sing it high, sing it low
|
Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead!
|
|
SCATTING INTERLUDE
|
|
Ding dong! The Witch is dead
|
Which old witch, the Wicked Witch!
|
Ding dong! The Wicked Witch is dead
|
|
Wake up, you sleepy-head
|
Rub your eyes, get out of bed
|
Wake up! The Wicked Witch is dead
|
|
She's gone where the goblins go, below
|
Below, below, yo-ho
|
Let's open up and sing
|
And ring the bells out
|
|
Ding dong! The merry-oh
|
Sing it high, sing it low
|
Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead!
|
|
SPOKEN:
|
She's dead!
