I've Got A Golden Ticket Grandpa Joe
CHARLIE: I never thought this day would be
Anything but catastrophe!
But suddenly I begin to see
A bit of good luck for me
Cus Ive got a golden ticket
Ive got a golden twinkle in my eye
Grandpa Joe
Howdya know?
That Id be coming home today
With something good, something gold
Something special, that I can hold
Grandpa Joe
Just as you planned
The final golden tickets in my hand!
CHARLIE, spoken: Grandpa Joe! We won!
MRS BUCKET, spoken: Joe! Are you alright?
GRANDMA, spoken : Hes white as a sheet!
MRS BUCKET, spoken: He cant speak!
CHARLIE, spoken: Grandpa Joe! Say something!
GRANDPA JOE: Charlie, you and I
We made something out of nothing
You and me, Charlie
We saw things that werent there
Charlie, you and I
Wondered how but never why
Yes, me and you, Charlie
Charlie, you and I
MRS BUCKET, spoken: Wait a minute, Joe. This ticket says, to go on the tour,
Charlie has to be accompanied by a responsible adult.
GRANDPA JOE, spoken: So?
MRS BUCKET, spoken: Well, I cant go with him. If I dont turn up for work,
Mrs Walinsky is sure to fire me, and I cant afford to lose my job.
GRANDPA JOE, spoken: Ill take him!
MRS BUCKET, spoken: But, Joe, you cant walk.
GRANDPA JOE, spoken: Couldnt walk! But that was before my call to arms!
This is all the miracle my old legs needed.
GRANDPA JOE: I never had a chance to shine
Never a happy song to sing
But suddenly half the world is mine
What an amazing thing!
Cus Ive got a golden ticket
Ive got a golden sun up in my sky
I never thought Id see the day
When I would face the world and say 'Good morning!'
Look at the sun!
I never thought that I would be
Slapping the lap of luxury
Cus theyd have said
GRANDPARENTS: 'It shouldnt be done !'
GRANDPA JOE, spoken: Bring me my jacket!
CHARLIE: But it can be done!
GRANDPA JOE, spoken: And my pants.
GRANDPA JOE: I never dreamed
That I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, its there that Im
Shortly about to be
CHARLIE + GRANDPA JOE: Cus weve got a golden ticket!
GRANDPARENTS: Weve got a golden ticket!
CHARLIE + GRANDPA JOE: Weve got a golden chance to make our way!
And with a golden ticket, its a golden day!
GRANDPARENTS: We never thought wed see the day
When we would face the world and say 'Good morning!'
GRANDPA JOE: Look at the sun!
I never thought that I would be
Dancing about for all to see
Cus they all thought I was better off dead
But I got out of bed!
CHARLIE + GRANDPA JOE: Wed never dreamed that wed appear
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, its there that were
Shortly about to be

MRS BUCKET, spoken: Oh, Charlie, your father would be so proud!
