A scene from The Wizard of Oz 1939
The Wizard

[While Dorothy is chasing Toto, the Wizard's hot-air balloon floats away.]

This is a highly irregular procedure - absolutely unprecedented. It'll ruin my exit.

Dorothy

Oh, wait! Come back, come back!

The Wizard

I can't come back, I don't know how it works!

The Cowardly Lion Each rabbit would show respect to me/The chipmunks genuflect to me/Tho’ my tail would lash/I would show compash/For ev’ry underling/If I, if I were king/Just king. Dorothy Gale Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, a way upon the chimney tops. That's where you'll find me. Dorothy Gale Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then— oh, why can't I?
