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
