Oompa Loompa Wisdom

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

We watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the original) today.  I don’t really watch movies with the kids.  Dh usually does and I take advantage of the peace and quiet.  I came to a couple of conclusions.  It’s a very twisted story and I think some drugs had to be involved in the making of the movie.  Oompa Loompas are smart.  Here are the lyrics to one of the songs:

Oompa Loompas:

Oompa Loompa doompadee doo

I’ve got another puzzle for you

Oompa Loompa doompadah dee

If you are wise you’ll listen to me

What do you get from a glut of TV?

A pain in the neck and an IQ of three

Why don’t you try simply reading a book?

Or could you just not bear to look?

You’ll get no

You’ll get no

You’ll get no

You’ll get no

You’ll get no commercials

Oompa Loompa Doompadee Dah

If you’re not greedy you will go far

You will live in happiness too

Like the Oompa

Oompa Loompa doompadee do
