Sweet thing,
Let me tell you ’bout
The world and the way things are.
You’ve come from a different place
And I know you’ve traveled far.
Now that you’ve told me what it is,
I’d better point you towards the Wiz.

He’s the Wiz,
He’s the man,
He’s the only one,
Who can give your wish right to ya.
He’s the Wizard.
He’ll send you back through time
By running magic through ya.
All of the super power’s his.
Listen and I’ll tell you where he is.

He’s the Wiz and he lives in Oz.
He’s the Wizard.
There’s the way to Emerald City.
That’s not too far, is it?
He’s the Wizard.
Just take your dilemma, child,
And lay it on the Wizard.
He’ll fix you a drink
That’ll bubble and foam.
And in a flash
You will be home.

He’s the Wiz.
He’s the Wiz.
He’s the Wizard of Oz
He’s got magic up his sleeve
He’s the Wizard
And you know without his help,
It would be impossible to leave
Fantastic powers at his command
And I’m sure that he will understand

He’s the Wiz and he lives in Oz

Sweet thing,
Let me tell you ’bout
The world and the way things are
I’m gonna point you towards the Wiz

He’s the Wiz
Fantastic powers at his command
And I’m sure that he will understand

He’s the Wiz and he lives in Oz

Sweet thing,
Let me tell you ’bout
The world and the way things are
You’ve come from a different place
And I know you’ve traveled far.
Now that you’ve told me what it is,
I’d better point you towards the Wiz.

He’s the Wiz!
