WIZARD
2
I never asked for this
3
Or planned it in advance
4
I was merely blown here
5
By the winds of chance
6
I never saw myself
7
As a Solomon or Socrates
8
I knew who I was:
9
One of your dime a dozen
10
Mediocrities
11
Then suddenly I'm here
12
Respected - worshipped, even
13
Just because the folks in Oz
14
Needed someone to believe in
15
Does it surprise you
16
I got hooked, and all too soon?
17
What can I say?
18
I got carried away
19
And not just by balloon:
20
Wonderful
21
They called me "Wonderful"
22
So I said "Wonderful" - if you insist
23
I will be "Wonderful"
24
And they said "Wonderful"
25
Believe me, it's hard to resist
26
'Cause it feels wonderful
27
They think I'm wonderful
28
Hey, look who's wonderful -
29
This corn-fed hick
30
Who said: "It might be keen
31
To build a town of green
32
And a wonderful road of yellow brick!"
33
(spoken) See - I never had a family of my own. So, I
34
guess I just - wanted to give the citizens of Oz everything.
35
ELPHABA(spoken) So you lied to them.
36
WIZARD
37
(spoken) Elphaba, where I'm from, we believe all sorts of
38
things that aren't true. We call it - "history."
39
(sung) A man's called a traitor - or liberator
40
A rich man's a thief - or philanthropist
41
Is one a crusader - or ruthless invader?
42
It's all in which label
43
Is able to persist
44
There are precious few at ease
45
With moral ambiguities
46
So we act as though they don't exist
47
They call me "Wonderful"
48
So I am wonderful
49
In fact - it's so much who I am
50
It's part of my name
51
And with my help, you can be the same
52
At long, long last receive your due
53
Long overdue
54
Elphaba - The most celebrated
55
Are the rehabilitated
56
There'll be such a - whoop-de-doo
57
A celebration throughout Oz
58
That's all to do - with you
59
Wonderful
60
They'll call you wonderful:
61
ELPHABA
62
It does sound wonderful:
63
WIZARD
64
Trust me - it's fun
65
BOTH
66
When you are wonderful
67
It would be wonderful?
68
Wonderful, wonderful
69
WIZARD
70
One! Two! And:
71
(they dance)
