Aubrey Woods did the version you see in the movie; he played the candy store owner. But Sammy Davis Jr. is perhaps most famous for doing the covered version of it that charted on the radio thereafter. Apparently Sammy Davis Jr. actually wanted to get and lobbied to get that part in the actual film, but didn't succeed.

Lyrics to I Want It Now! : I want a feast I want a bean feast Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts so good you could go nuts. No, now! I want a ball I want a party Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and Give it to me now. I want the world, I want the whole world. I want to lock it all up in my pocket It's my bar of chocolate Give it to me now! I want today I want tomorrow I want to wear them like braids in my hair and I don't want to share them I want a party with roomfuls of laughter Ten thousand ton of ice cream And if I don't get the things I am after I'm going to scream! I want the works, I want the whole works! Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes, And now! Don't care how I want it now! Don't care how I want it now!
