Ding-Dong! The Witch Is Dead! is a song from The Wizard of Oz.
Lyrics[]
Glinda: Come out, come out, wherever you are
And meet the young lady who fell from a star
She fell from the sky, she fell very far
And Kansas, she says, is the name of the star
Munchkins: Kansas, she says, is the name of the star
Glinda: She brings you good news or haven't you heard
When she fell out of Kansas, a miracle occurred
Dorothy: It really was no miracle, what happened was just this
The wind began to switch, the house to pitch
And suddenly, the hinges started to unhitch
Just then, the witch, the satisfy an itch
Went flying on her broomstick
Thumbing for a hitch
Tall Munchikin: And oh, what happened then was rich
Munchkins: The house began to pitch.
The kitchen took a slitch.
It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch,
Which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch.
The house began to pitch.
The kitchen took a slitch.
It landed on the Wicked Witch in the middle of a ditch,
Which was not a healthy situation for the Wicked Witch.
Who began to twitch and was reduced to just a stitch
Of what was once the Wicked Witch.
Munchkin 1: We thank you very sweetly, for doing it so neatly.
Munchkin 2: You've killed her so completely, that we thank you very sweetly.
Glinda: Let the joyous news be spread, the Wicked Old Witch at last is dead!
Munchkins: Hooray!!
Ding-Dong! The witch is dead!
Which old witch? The wicked witch!
Ding-Dong! The wicked witch is dead!
Wake up sleepy head
Rub your eyes, get out of bed
Wake up, the wicked witch is dead!
She's gone where the goblins go below
Below - below! Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out.
Ding Dong' the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low.
Let them know
The Wicked Witch is dead!

Below - below! Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out.
