When Veruca Says Lyrics by Original London Cast of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - The New Musical (Original London Cast Recording)

2013

[MR. SALT]
When Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“More!”
[MR. SALT]
I buy another store
And when Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Now!”
[MR. SALT]
The sweat forms on my brow
And when Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Again!”
[MR. SALT]
No matter where or when
We’d better all kowtow to
[VERUCA]
“More!”
“Now!!”
“Again!!!”
[MR. SALT]
When Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Out!”
[MR. SALT]
There’s no reasonable doubt
And when Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Fetch!”
[MR. SALT]
There’s no time to kvetch
And when Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Obey!”
[MR. SALT]
You’d better find a way
To make a dollar stretch for
[VERUCA]
“Out!”
“Fetch!!”
“Obey!!!”
[MR. SALT]
Now, when she heard of Wonka’s prize
She started to attack!
So I told my peanut shellers
“Here’s a tougher nut to crack
You’ve each a thousand Wonka bars
Start shelling them at once”
For when Veruca’s happy
It’s much better for her pappy
For forty days and forty nights
The ladies tried to pick it
And always to the music of
[VERUCA]
“I want a golden ticket!”
“I want a golden ticket!”
[MR. SALT]
And then a girl cried out
And in her hand? A panacea!
A golden ticket on display!
And what did sweet Veruca say?
[VERUCA]
“Daddy… buy me North Korea!”
[MR. SALT]
When Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Buy!”
[MR. SALT]
It’s like a battle cry!
And when Veruca says
[VERUCA]
“Mine!”
[MR. SALT]
Well, I’ve jelly for a spine
And if Veruca said
[VERUCA]
“Please?”
[MR. SALT]
I’d know it was a tease before a
[VERUCA]
“More!”
[MR. SALT]
A…
[VERUCA]
“Now!”
[MR. SALT]
An…
[VERUCA]
“Out!”
[MR. SALT]
A…
[VERUCA]
“Mine!”
[MR. SALT]
A…
[VERUCA]
“Fetch!”
[MR. SALT]
A…
[VERUCA]
“Buy!”
[MR. SALT]
And when she finally falls asleep
We’ll pray and say Amen
Till tomorrow when it all begins
[VERUCA]
“Again!”
[MR. SALT]
Again!
