Yes, a lyric from 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'. I've been singing that line for a bit. And others. I really want the soundtrack and the mp3's. Maybe I'll do a little check around for them. For a revisiting to childhood.

I loved the book of 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'. The sequel was less entrancing. Roahl Dahl is amazing. I had all the books I think. I had my students read one of his adult short stories. Even that was facinating. He amazes me. I was checking in one of his childrens books of short stories and nearly started reading it the other day.

When I was a kid, my parents requested that the movie store buy the movie 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'. I rented it every other weekend. Along with 'Babes in Toyland' and a few others. We made it worth their while. I don't think that many other people rented it. I however, rented it, sang it - lived it. I have always had a big imagination. I wanted to take the glass elevator. I bought the candy and pretended.

'Cause I've got a Golden Ticket.....

Come with me and you'll be In a world of pure imagination Take a look and you'll see Into your imagination We'll begin with a spin Trav'ling in the world of my creation What we'll see will defy Explanation {Refrain} 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 {Refrain} There is no life I know To compare with pure imagination Living there, you'll be free If you truly wish to be
