When Veruca Says

How could 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 out and
More! Now! Again!

When Veruca says
Out!
There is no reasonable doubt
And when Veruca says
Fetch!

There is no time to kvetch
And when Veruca says
Array!

You'd better find a way
To make your dollar stretch for
Out! Fetch! Array!

So 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
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!
Well, I've jelly for a spine
And if Veruca said.

Please?
I'd know it was a tease before her
More! Now! Out! Mine! Fetch! Buy!
Uh- And- Uh- Uh- Uh-

And when she finally falls asleep
We pray and say 'Amen'
'Till tomorrow when it all begins
Again!
Again!
