Madame Morrible: Oh, Miss Elphaba ...
                 MANY YEARS I HAVE WAITED
                 FOR A GIFT LIKE YOURS TO APPEAR
                 WHY I PREDICT THE WIZARD COULD MAKE YOU HIS
                 MAGIC GRAND VIZIER!
                 MY DEAR, MY DEAR
                 I'LL WRITE AT ONCE TO THE WIZARD
                 TELL HIM OF YOU IN ADVANCE
                 WITH A TALENT LIKE YOURS DEAR
                 THERE IS A DEFINISH CHANCE
                 IF YOU WORK AS YOU SHOULD
                 YOU'LL BE MAKING GOOD
Elphaba:         DID THAT REALLY JUST HAPPEN?
                 HAVE I ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD?
                 THIS WEIRD QUIRK I'VE TRIED TO SUPPRESS OR HIDE
                 IS A TALENT THAT COULD
                 HELP ME MEET THE WIZARD
                 IF I MAKE GOOD
                 SO I'LL MAKE GOOD
                 WHEN I MEET THE WIZARD
                 ONCE I PROVE MY WORTH
                 AND THEN I MEET THE WIZARD
                 WHAT I'VE WAITED FOR SINCE ... SINCE BIRTH!
                 AND WITH ALL HIS WIZARD WISDOM
                 BY MY LOOKS HE WON'T BE BLINDED
                 DO YOU THINK THE WIZARD IS DUMB?
                 OR LIKE MUNCHKINS SO SMALL-MINDED?
                 NO! HE'LL SAY TO ME, "I SEE WHO YOU TRULY ARE
                 A GIRL ON WHOM I CAN RELY"
                 AND THAT'S HOW WE'LL BEGIN
                 THE WIZARD AND I
                 ONCE I'M WITH THE WIZARD
                 MY WHOLE LIFE WILL CHANGE
                 'CAUSE ONCE YOU'RE WITH THE WIZARD
                 NO ONE THINK YOU'RE STRANGE
                 NO FATHER IS NOT PROUD OF YOU
                 NO SISTER ACTS ASHAMED
                 AND ALL OF OZ HAS TO LOVE YOU
                 WHEN BY THE WIZARD YOU'RE ACCLAIMED
                 AND THIS GIFT OR THIS CURSE I HAVE INSIDE
                 MAYBE AT LAST I'LL KNOW WHY
                 WHEN WE ARE HAND IN HAND
                 THE WIZARD AND I
                 AND ONE DAY HE'LL SAY TO ME, "ELPHABA,
                 A GIRL WHO IS SO SUPERIOR
                 SHOULDN'T A GIRL WHO'S SO GOOD INSIDE
                 HAVE A MATCHING EXTERIOR?
                 AND SINCE FOLKS HERE TO AN ABSURD DEGREE
                 SEEM FIXATED ON YOUR VERDIGRIS
                 WOULD IT BE ALL RIGHT BY YOU
                 IF I DE-GREENIFY YOU?"
                 AND THOUGH OF COURSE THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT TO ME
                 "ALL RIGHT, WHY NOT?" I'LL REPLY
                 OH WHAT A PAIR WE'LL BE
                 THE WIZARD AND I
                 YES WHAT A PAIR WE'LL BE
                 THE WIZARD AND ...
                 UNLIMITED
                 MY FUTURE IS UNLIMITED
                 AND I JUST HAD A VISION ALMOST LIKE A PROPHECY
                 I KNOW, IT SOUNDS TRULY CRAZY
                 AND TRUE, THE VISION'S HAZY
                 BUT I SWEAR SOMEDAY THERE'LL BE
                 A CELEBRATION THROUGHOUT OZ
                 THAT'S ALL TO DO WITH ME!
                 AND I'LL STAND THERE WITH THE WIZARD
                 FEELING THINGS I'VE NEVER FELT
                 AND ALTHOUGH I'D NEVER SHOW IT
                 I'D BE SO HAPPY I COULD ... MELT!
                 AND SO IT WILL BE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
                 AND I'LL WANT NOTHING ELSE TILL I DIE
                 HELD IN SUCH HIGH ESTEEM
                 WHEN PEOPLE SEE ME THEY WILL SCREAM
                 FOR HALF OF OZ'S FAVORITE TEAM
                 THE WIZARD AND I!
