A Letter From Charlie Bucket - Jack Costello/The Bucket Family/The Original London Cast Recording/Marc Shaiman

作曲：Marc Shaiman

Dear Mr Wonka

I know that you're a busy man

You must have lots of mail to read

I'm writing for my family 'cause

There's nothing special that I need

The time you take to read this letter

Will be time well spent

Because I've made a list of things

You might want to invent

How's your homework

Almost done

That's my Charlie that's my son

For dad who's always on his feet

You might please grant me this one wish

To keep his shoes attached to him

Some bootstraps made of licorice

For Josephine I have drawn a recipe beneath

For molars made of marzipan

When she can't find her teeth

Have you scrubbed up

Yes I did

That's my Charlie that's my kid

When I was smaller than I am

I think one day we saw the sea

My mum she had an ice cream

And was happy as a mum can be

For her I would invent an ice cream that would never melt

So she can feel all day the way

I wish she always felt

For grandpa George and his Georgina

Something not in any store

Some pillows made of marshmallows

To keep the noise down when they snore

For grandpa Joe who soon is turning

Ninety and one half

A joke book made of jelly beans

'Cause he just loves to laugh

Off to bed now

Counting sheep

Hope we don't die in our sleep

I think I've thought of everything

For you to add you special touch

And when these things are all complete

If it's not asking far too much

Please drop them off yourself

So we can ask you how they do

And well I'd like one wonka bar

That I would share with you

Signed Charlie Bucket

Goodnight Charlie Bucket
