When Veruca Says

How can I possibly refuse?
When Veruca says
More!
I buy another store
And when Veruca says
Now!
The sweat forms on my brow
And when Veruca says
Again!
No matter where or when, we'd better all count too
More now again!

When Veruca says
Out!
There's no reasonable doubt
And when Veruca says
Fetch!
There's no time to go fetch
And when Veruca says
Obey!
You'd better find a way to make a dollar stretch for
Out, fetch, obey!

Now, when she heard of Wonkas prize, she started to attack!
So I told my peanut shellers
Heres a tougher nut to crack!
You each a thousand Wonka bars
Start shelling them at once

For when Veruca's happy, it's much better for her pappy!
For 40 days and 40 nights
The ladies tried to pick it
And always to the music of
I want a golden ticket!
I want a golden ticket!

And then a girl cried out and in her hand a panacea
A golden ticket on display and what did
Sweet Veruca say?
(Daddy?) Yes?
Buy me North Korea!

When Veruca says
Buy!
It's like a battle cry!
And when Veruca says
Mine!
We're like jelly for a spine
And if Veruca said
Pweeeaassseeee?

I'd know it was a tease before a
More!
Now!
Out!
My!
Fetch!
Buy!
And when she finally falls asleep
We will pray and say
Amen!
'Til tomorrow when it all begins
Again! (Again!)
