MADAME MORRIBLE
2
(spoken) Oh, Miss Elphaba:
3
(sung) Many years I have waited
4
For a gift like yours to appear
5
Why, I predict the Wizard
6
Could make you his
7
Magic grand vizier!
8
My dear, my dear
9
I'll write at once to the Wizard
10
Tell him of you in advance
11
With a talent like yours, dear
12
There is a defin-ish chance
13
If you work as you should
14
You'll be making good:
15
ELPHABA
16
Did that really just happen?
17
Have I actually understood?
18
This weird quirk I try
19
To suppress or hide
20
Is a talent that could
21
Help me meet the Wizard
22
If I make good
23
So I'll make good:
24
When I meet the Wizard
25
Once I prove my worth
26
And then I meet the Wizard
27
What I've waited for since: since birth!
28
And with all his Wizard wisdom
29
By my looks, he won't be blinded
30
Do you think the Wizard is dumb?
31
Or, like Munchkins, so small-minded?
32
No! He'll say to me,
33
"I see who you truly are -
34
A girl on whom I can rely!"
35
And that's how we'll begin
36
The Wizard and I:
37
Once I'm with the Wizard
38
My whole life will change
39
'Cause once you're with the Wizard
40
No one thinks you're strange!
41
No father is not proud of you,
42
No sister acts ashamed
43
And all of Oz has to love you
44
When by the Wizard you're acclaimed
45
And this gift - or this curse -
46
I have inside
47
Maybe at last, I'll know why
48
When we are hand and hand -
49
The Wizard and I!
50
And one day, he'll say to me, "Elphaba,
51
A girl who is so superior
52
Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside
53
Have a matching exterior?
54
And since folks here to an absurd degree
55
Seem fixated on your verdigris
56
Would it be all right by you
57
If I de-greenify you?"
58
And though of course
59
That's not important to me
60
"All right, why not?" I'll reply
61
Oh, what a pair we'll be
62
The Wizard and I:
63
Yes, what a pair we'll be
64
The Wizard and:
65
Unlimited
66
My future is unlimited
67
And I've just had a vision
68
Almost like a prophecy
69
I know - it sounds truly crazy
70
And true, the vision's hazy
71
But I swear, someday there'll be
72
A celebration throughout Oz
73
That's all to do with me!
74
And I'll stand there with the Wizard
75
Feeling things I've never felt
76
And though I'd never show it
77
I'll be so happy, I could melt!
78
And so it will be
79
For the rest of my life
80
And I'll want nothing else
81
Till I die
82
Held in such high esteem
83
When people see me, they will scream
84
For half of Oz's fav'rite team:
85
The Wizard
86
And I!
