Lyrics
Original
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, Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can't I?
Somewhere over the rainbow, Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly, Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

Scarecrow: 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 (Tin-Man: skies are blue)
And the dreams that you dare to dream, really do come true...
Lion: Heh-heh, he's right!
Scarecrow: Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Goodbye clouds! (gasps)
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find-
Mee-ugh.. Me!
Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
There they go now.
Birds fly over the rainbow, why, oh why can't I?
Tweet-tweet! Tell my mom I'll be right here!
