What are the words to “Over the Rainbow,” or any of the other songs?
I get asked this often enough that, if I could, I would include lyrics in this FAQ or elsewhere on WWOOW. However, The Movie, including the song lyrics, is still under copyright, and I cannot legally put the lyrics in this document without permission. But they can be found, if you’re willing to do a little work. First, the lyrics are available in the published editions of the screenplay (see the previous question). Second, not only the words, but the music as well, are available in a song folio from your local music store (if they don’t have it, they should be able to special order it), or (TMOHH) in my online Oz bookshop, http://thewizardofoz.info/aisle7.html. Third, you can find them on the WWW at the official website of The Movie at http://thewizardofoz.warnerbros.com/movie/cmp/r-lyrics.html, and also at http://www.angelfire.com/pa/maryanne/lyric.html.
