A scene from The Wizard of Oz 1939
Dorothy

But it wasn't a dream. It was a place, and you [Hunk] and you [Hickory] and you [Zeke]... and you [Professor Marvel] were there. [Everyone laughs] But you couldn't have been, could you?

Auntie Em

We dream lots of silly things when we...

Dorothy

No, Aunt Em. This is a real, truly live place. And I remember that some of it wasn't very nice. But most of it was beautiful. But just the same, all I kept saying to everybody was, 'I want to go home.' And they sent me home. [Everyone chuckles again] Doesn't anybody believe me?

Uncle Henry

Of course we believe you, Dorothy.

Dorothy

Oh, but anyway, Toto, we're home! Home! And this is my room - and you're all here! And I'm not gonna leave here ever, ever again because I love you all! - And oh, Auntie Em, there's no place like home. There's no place like home.

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?
