The Candy Man Lyrics[Intro]
(Kids enter, yelling)
KIDS: (yelling) Sizzler! I want a Sizzler!
BILL: All right, all right, all right, what's it going to be? A triple cream cup for Christopher
KIDS: (yelling) A Squelchy Snorter!
BILL: A Squelchy Snorter for Otis
ONE KID: I want a Squelchy Snorter
BILL: A Sizzler for June Marie
ANOTHER KID: C'mon, give me a Sizzler
BILL: And listen! Wonka's got a new one today
KIDS: What is it?
BILL: This is called a Scrumdidilyumptious Bar
WINKELMANN: (mispronouncing) Scrumbibilyunctious Bar? How does he do it?
BILL: My dear boy, do you ask a fish how it swims?
WINKELMANN: No
BILL: Or a bird how it flies?
WINKELMANN: No
BILL: No sirree, you don't! They do it because they were born to do it. Just like Willy Wonka was born to be a candy man, you look like you were born to be a Wonkarer
[Verse 1: Bill]
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate
And a miracle or two?

[Chorus: Bill]
The candy man!
The candy man can
The candy man can 'cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good

[Verse 2: Bill & Kids]
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh?
Soak it in the sun
And make a strawberry-lemon pie
The candy man?

[Chorus: Bill]
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can 'cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good

[Bridge: Bill]
Willy Wonka makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
[Verse 3: Bill]
Who can take tomorrow
Dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow
And collect up all the cream?

[Chorus: Bill & (Kids)]
The candy man
(Willy Wonka can)
The candy man can
The candy man can 'cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good

[Outro: Bill]
And the world tastes good 'cause the candy man thinks it should
