Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead
[RACHEL]
Once there was a wicked witch in the lovely land of OZ
And a wickeder, wickeder, wickeder witch that never, ever was
[KURT]
She filled the folks in Munchkin Land with terror and with dread
Till one fine day from Kansas
[KURT & RACHEL]
A house fell on her head
And the coroner pronounced her:
Dead!
[RACHEL & (KURT)]
And through the town the joyous news went running
The joyous news that the wicked old witch was finally done in
Ding Dong, the witch is dead (Which old witch?)
Well, uh, the wicked witch (Oh)
Ding Dong, the wicked witch is dead (Oh yeah, happy day)
Wake up you sleepy head (Rub your eyes)
And get out of that bed
Wake up, the wicked witch is dead
[KURT & RACHEL]
She's gone where the goblins go below, below, below, yo ho
Let's open up and sing
[RACHEL]
And ring those bells out
[KURT]
Sing the news out
[RACHEL]
Hehehe, Ding Dong, the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low
Let them know the wicked old witch is dead
[KURT]
Why, everyone's glad she took such a crownin'
[RACHEL]
Getting hit by a house is even worse than drownin'
[KURT & RACHEL]
Let 'em know the wicked old witch is dead
