Who's the man behind the big green curtain?
Who's the man in the land that is so far away?
Who's he man who can give the Tin Man a heart,
The lion some courage, Dorothy a home, and the scarecrow a brain-ain-ain-ain-ain?
[Chorus] It's the Wizard Of Oz!
The odds are that you'll find your way home today,
With the Wizard Of Oz!
Yes, te Wizard is here to make you feel okay. Hey, hey, hey, HEY!
[short keyboard solo to tune of verse]
[Chorus] It's the Wizard Of Oz!
The odds are that you'll find your way home today,
With the Wizard Of Oz!
Yes, the Wizard is here to make you feel okay. Hey, hey, hey, HEY!
