Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Don'cha Pinch Me Charlie
Grandpa Joe,
how d'ya know,
I'll be coming home today
with something good, something gold,
something special that I can hold
Mr Wonka How d'ya do
tomorrow morning I'll be seeing you!
(Grandpa Joe)
Charlie, what is it?
(Charlie)
Grandpa joe, we won!
(Grandpa Joe)
Charlie, get my uniform,
Upon the shelf,
Just the one all this years i haven't worn.
I admit for quite a while I haven't been myself.
But spread the news!
A new Joe has been born!
Though I haven't walked in years,
change my oils and check my gears,
Give my hair a clip, and my shaving cream.
But don't, don't, don't ya pinch me charlie,
I don't want to wake up from this golden dream,
(Georgina)
Joe, what are you doing?
(Joe)
We are going to visit the chocolate factory!!
(George)
But Joe, You can't walk!
(Joe)
I can walk a four minute mile, like
I did in the 48 olympics!
Josephine get the thread and needle from the kit!
I'm sure the moserani wooly too.
And you won't have to alterate my trousers cause they'll do.
cause I havent walked in them since I was 22!!!!!
But don't, don't, don't ya pinch me charlie,
I don't want to wake up from this golden dream!!!!
