Almost Nearly Perfect - Jack Costello/The Original London Cast Recording/Marc Shaiman

作词：Scott Wittman/Marc Shaiman

作曲：Marc Shaiman

Look at this

Bent umbrella

Hardly know why you'd throw it away

I've a trick with some wire and stick

So I'll save it for a rainy day

Here's a glove

With no partner

It got lost so she tossed you aside but

I've a date for you wooly mate

And the half a heaven you provide

Almost nearly perfect

Yes it's near enough to new

Your trash is my treasure

Your good bye

Is my how d'ya do

How d'ya do

How d'ya do again

How d'ya do

Very well then

Here's a coin

Well it once was

Now it's a smashed penny token

But I know that my grandpa Joe

Would say this is only barely broken

Here's a tin

Let me at it

When I run everyone is a fan

Hear the roar as I kick and I score

Then my picture's on the label of the can

It's almost nearly perfect

Yes it's near enough to new

Your trash is my treasure

Your good bye

Is my how d'ya do

Found a book with missing pages

Not a problem I know how it ends

Good king Charlie in his kingdom

Lots of chocolate lots of friends

How d'ya do

Loyal subjects

Bring me sweets royal treats for a king

Must be pure for a connoisseur

Or

Executioner's axe shall swing

But 'til then

I'm just Charlie

Full of talk but no chocolate bars

Pleasant day when I have my say

Mister wonka will decree

Every candy shall be free

There'll wonka chocolates falling from the stars

And that'll be absolutely perfect

Just enough to make you cry

Hear the whistle blowing

How d'ya do

Has to be

Good bye

Good bye

I'm home
