"Over the Rainbow....."

Somewhere Over The Rainbow...Way Up High
There's A Land That I Heard Of Once In A Lullaby.
Somewhere Over The Rainbow...Skies Are Blue
And The Dreams That You Dare To Dream Really Do Come True.

Someday I'll Wish Upon A Star And Wake Up Where The Clouds Are Far Behind Me.
Where Troubles Melt Like Lemon Drops Away Above The Chimney Tops...
That's Where You'll Find Me.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow... Blue Birds Fly
Birds Fly Over The Rainbow--Why Then Oh Why Can't I?
If Happy Little Blue Birds Fly Beyond The Rainbow...
Why Oh Why Can't I?

Come out, come out, wherever you are and meet the young lady,
who fell from a star.

She fell from the sky, she fell very far and Kansas, she says,
is the name of the star.
Kansas, she says, is the name of the star.

She brings you good news. Or haven't you heard?
When she fell out of Kansas...
a miracle occurred!

It really was no miracle. What happened was just this:
The wind began to switch - the house to pitch
and suddenly the hinges started to unhitch.
Just then the Witch - to satisfy an itch went flying
on her broomstick, thumbing for a hitch.

And oh, what happened then was rich.
The house began to pitch. The kitchen took a slitch.
It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch,
which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch...
who began to twitch and was reduced to just a stitch
of what was once the Wicked Witch.
"Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead!"

Ding Dong! The Witch is dead! Which old Witch?
The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.

Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed.
Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead.
She's gone where the goblins go,
Below - below - below. Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out.
Ding Dong the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low.
Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead!
"If I only had a brain..."

I could while away the hours, conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain.
And my head I'd be scratchin' while my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
I'd unravel every riddle for any individ'le,
In trouble or in pain.
With the thoughts you'll be thinkin' you could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain.
Oh, I could tell you why the ocean's near the shore.
I could think of things I never thunk [sic] before.
And then I'd sit, and think some more.
I would not be just a nothin' my head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain.
I would dance and be merry, life would be a ding-a-derry,
If I only had a brain.
"If I only had a heart..."

When a man's an empty kettle he should be on his mettle,
And yet I'm torn apart.
Just because I'm presumin' that I could be kind-a-human,
If I only had heart.
I'd be tender - I'd be gentle and awful sentimental
Regarding Love and Art.
I'd be friends with the sparrows ... and the boys who shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart.
Picture me - a balcony. Above a voice sings low.
Wherefore art thou, Romeo?
I hear a beat...how sweet.
Just to register emotion, jealousy - devotion,
And really feel the part.
I could stay young and chipper and I'd lock it with a zipper,
If I only had a heart.
"If I only had the nerve..."

Yeah, it's sad, believe me, Missy, When you're born to be a sissy
Without the vim and verve.
But I could show my prowess, be a lion not a mou-ess
If I only had the nerve.
I'm afraid there's no denyin' I'm just a DandyLion,
A fate I don't deserve.

I'd be brave as a blizzard....
I'd be gentle as a lizard....
I'd be clever as a gizzard....
If the Wizard is a Wizard who will serve.

Then I'm sure to get a brain,
...a heart
...a home
...THE NERVE!
