I've Got A Golden Ticket / Grandpa Joe
I never thought this day would be
Anything but catastrophe!
But suddenly I begin to see
A bit of good luck for me
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
Grandpa Joe
How'd'ya know?
That I'd be coming home today
With something good, something gold
Something special, that I can hold
Grandpa Joe
Just as you planned
The final golden ticket's in my hand
Grandpa Joe! We won!
Oh, Charlie!
Joe! Are you alright?
He's white as a sheet!
He can't speak!
Grandpa Joe! Say something!
Charlie, you and I
We made something out of nothing
You and me, Charlie
We saw things that weren't there
Charlie, you and I
Wondered how but never why
Yes, me and you, Charlie
Charlie, you and I
Wait a minute Joe, this ticket says, to go on the tour
Charlie has to be accompanied by a responsible adult
So?
Well, I can't go with him, if I don't turn up for work
Mrs. Walinsky is sure to fire me, and I can't afford to lose my job
I'll take him
But, Joe, you can't walk
Couldn't walk!
But that was before my call to arms!
This is all the miracle my old legs needed
I never had a chance to shine
Never a happy song to sing
But suddenly half the world is mine
What an amazing thing
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden sun up in my sky
I never thought I'd see the day
When I would face the world and say, "Good morning"
Look at the sun
I never thought that I would be
Slapping the lap of luxury
'Cause they'd have said
"It shouldn't be done"
Bring me my jacket
But it can be done
And my pants
I never dreamed
That I would climb over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm shortly about to be
'Cause we've got a golden ticket
We've got a golden ticket
We've got a golden chance to make our way
And with a golden ticket, it's a golden day
We never thought we'd see the day
When we would face the world and say, "Good morning"
Look at the sun
I never thought that I would be
Dancing about for all to see
'Cause they all thought I was better off dead
But I got out of bed
We'd never dreamed that we'd appear
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that we're shortly about to be
'Cause we've got a golden ticket
Oh, Charlie, your father would be so proud
We've got a golden chance to make our way
And with a golden ticket, it's a golden day
Anything but catastrophe!
But suddenly I begin to see
A bit of good luck for me
'Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
Grandpa Joe
