Lyrics Pure Imagination - Jack Costello , The Original London Cast Recording , Douglas Hodge

Hold your breath
Make a wish
Count to three

And you'll be
In a world of pure Imagination
Take a look
And you'll see
Into your imagination

Welcome on board my great glass elevator
Wow!
Push that button
The one more to push?
That's the one
Something crazy is going to happen now, isn't it
How did you guess

We'll begin
With a spin
Traveling in the world of my creation
What you'll see
Will defy explanation

Where are we going?
Up, up, up

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it

Time to open your eyes
And take a look around

There is no
Life I know
To compare with pure Imagination
Living here
You'll be free
If you truly wish to be

Look Jolly
Down here my factory do you see?
Yes Mr. Bonker
I love my chocolate factory Jolly
I love it more than anything else in the world
So do I Mr Bonker, so do I
Well I'm very glad you said that
I'm very glad indeed
Do you want to know why?
Why?
Because my chocolate factory is your special prize
But Mr. Bonker, why do you want to give away your factory
I am an old man Jolly
I'm a lot older than you think
I can't keep running my factory forever
I've got to give it to someone new
And that someone Jolly
Is you

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There's nothing to it

There is no
Life I know
To compare with pure Imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly wish to be
