[WILLY WONKA, spoken]
Close your eyes, make a wish, and count to three

(sung)
Come with me and you'll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see into your imagination
We'll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world of my creation
What we'll see will defy explanation

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it

There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free, if you truly wish to be

(spoken)
I've been working on this for 17 and a half years. Yours are the first eyes ever to see it: a world made completely and entirely out of candy. What do you think, Charlie?

[CHARLIE]
Grandpa Joe, now I know
I'll never have to dream again
For I've had dreams incredible
But here's a dream that is edible
[CHARLIE, VERUCA, MIKE, VIOLET, AUGUSTUS]
Mr. Wonka, pinch us, please
So we can taste the forest for the trees

[WONKA]
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it

[ALL]
There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination

[WONKA]
Living there, you'll be free, if you truly wish to be
