Violet when fully inflated being used as a huge disco ball for the Oompa Loompas

8558613 orig

Violet during her first stage of inflation

Juicy! is a disco-tech, 1970's dance anthem sung by the Oompa Loompas while Violet turns into a blueberry. The song is mainly a criticism of certain modern celebrities who are famous for being nothing but the most trivial things, such as in Violet's case of chewing gum, and how soon they become nothing but gold mines for their agents to exploit until finally they end up famous for all the wrong reasons, for example, turning blue. Much like the other songs of the show, Juicy takes on certain dark tones; for example, in the second verse, the Oompa Loompas make it clear that Violet will explode and after she has, they will sell her body parts at her boutiques afterwards. Yep. Dark. It does however contain a variety of comedic moments; for instance, when the Oompa Loompas point out that Violet will now need a tent for a dress due to her massive size, and when the Oompa Loompas use a newly swollen Violet as a massive disco ball to dance to. The song ends when Violet explodes and confetti the color of her body reigns down over the audience to simulate Violet's blueberry juice spraying from the explosion. Juicy was cut from the Broadway production for When Willy Met Oompa.

Lyrics[]

And here she is!

New in at Number One

Chewing up the charts!

She's big and getting bigger!

She's blue and getting bluer!

She's a fruit based sensation

And she goes by the name of Juicy!

Everybody wants a piece of the action

Everybody's talkin' 'bout Juicy!

Help me! [Violet]

 Daddy wanted her to be the main attraction. Now everybody's talkin' 'bout Juicy!

Juicy is a girl named Violet B

She doesn't have a talent as far as we can see

But she wants to be a star though there's nothing she can do

She's gonna be famous now for just turning blue!

Squeeze that mother out! [FEMALE OOMPA LOOMPAS]

Everybody wants a piece of the action. Everybody's talkin' 'bout Juicy!

Daddy blew her up into a big fat berry

Now everybody's talkin' 'bout Juicy!

She always wanted fame now she's 'bout to explode! POP! We'll scoop up every chunk and we'll serve her a la mode.

DADDY-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [VIOLET]

She's gonna hit the big time when the big gum drops

She's finally gonna burst a bubble on the top of the pops!

Her lips say nothing and her hands do less.

Her clothes are yours 'cause soon she'll need a tent for a dress.

Her stomach will be perfect when it's squeezed and its oozed.

Her brain's in mint condition cause it's never been used.

Her legs are good and sturdy cause they ran for the spotlight.

You have to take them both to split them up would be not right.

But you had better hurry if you wanna grab an ear

'Cause in 15 minutes she is bound to disappear!

Everybody wants a piece of the action. Everybody's talkin' 'bout Juicy! Her favorite body parts will soon be yours for a fraction.

Her insides flying overhead will be a distraction.

Today nobody knows about Ravel or Debussy, but everybody knows about.

Everybody's talking bout

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...

JUICY!

(Violet explodes- POP!!!!!!)
