The Wizard And I - Idina Menzel
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 defin-ish chance if you work as you should... you'll be making good did that really just happen? have I actually understood? this weird quirk I've tried to supress 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 truely 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 'cuz once you're with the wizard no one thinks 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 soo 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
