1. "NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED"
CITIZENS OF OZ:
Good news!
She's dead!
The Witch of the West is dead!
The wickedest witch there ever was
The enemy of all of us here in Oz
Is Dead!
Good news!
Good news!
SOMEONE IN THE CROWD:
(spoken) Look! It's Glinda!
GLINDA:
(spoken) Fellow Ozians:
(sung) Let us be glad
Let us be grateful
Let us rejoicify that goodness could subdue
The wicked workings of you-know-who
Isn't it nice to know
That good will conquer evil?
The truth we all believe'll by and by
Outlive a lie
For you and -
SOMEONE IN THE CROWD:
No one mourns the Wicked
ANOTHER PERSON:
No one cries "They won't return!"
ALL:
No one lays a lily on their grave
MAN:
The good man scorns the Wicked!
WOMEN:
Through their lives, our children learn
ALL:
What we miss, when we misbehave:
GLINDA:
And Goodness knows
The Wicked's lives are lonely
Goodness knows
The Wicked die alone
It just shows when you're Wicked
You're left only
On your own
ALL:
Yes, Goodness knows
The Wicked's lives are lonely
Goodness knows
The Wicked cry alone
Nothing grows for the Wicked
They reap only
What they sow
GLINDA(spoken): Are people born Wicked? Or do they have
Wickedness thrust upon them? After all, she had
a father. She had a mother, as so many do:
FATHER:
How I hate to go and leave you lonely
MOTHER:
That's alright - it's only just one night
FATHER:
But know that you're here in my heart
While I'm out of your sight
GLINDA:
(spoken)
And like every family - they had their secrets
LOVER:
Have another drink, my dark-eyed beauty
I've got one more night left, here in town
So have another drink of green elixir
And we'll have ourselves a little mixer
Have another little swallow, little lady,
And follow me down.
GLINDA:
(spoken) And of course, from the moment she was born,
she was - well - different
MIDWIFE:
It's coming
FATHER:
Now?
MIDWIFE:
The baby's coming
FATHER:
And how!
MIDWIFE:
I see a nose
FATHER:
I see a curl
MIDWIFE AND FATHER:
It's a healthy, perfect,
Lovely, little -
MIDWIFE:
(screams)
FATHER:
(spoken) Sweet Oz!
MOTHER:
(spoken) What is it? what's wrong?
MIDWIFE:
How can it be?
FATHER:
What does it mean?
MIDWIFE:
It's atrocious
FATHER:
It's obscene!
MIDWIFE AND FATHER:
Like a froggy, ferny cabbage
The baby is unnaturally
ALL:
Green!
FATHER:
(spoken) Take it away, take it away!
GLINDA:
(spoken) So you see - it couldn't have been easy!
ALL:
No one mourns the Wicked!
Now at last, she's dead and gone!
Now at last, there's joy throughout the land
And Goodness knows
We know what Goodness is
Goodness knows
The Wicked die alone
GLINDA:
She died alone
ALL:
Woe to those (Woe to those)
Who spurn what Goodnesses
They are shown
No one mourns the Wicked
GLINDA:
Good news!
CROWD:
No one mourns the Wicked!
GLINDA:
Good news!
ALL:
No one mourns the Wicked!
Wicked!
Wicked!
2. "DEAR OLD SHIZ"
PERSON IN CROWD:
(Spoken)
Glinda-Is it true you were her friend?
GLINDA:
(Spoken)
Well-It depends what you mean by "friend". I did know her.
That is, our paths did cross. At school.....
STUDENTS:
O HALLOWED HALLS AND VINE-DRAPED WALLS
THE PROUDLIEST SIGHT THERE IS (SIGHT THERE IS)
WHEN GREY AND SERE OUR HAIR HATH TURNED
WE SHALL STILL REVERE THE LESSONS LEARNED
IN OUR DAYS AT DEAR OLD SHIZ (DEAR OLD SHIZ)
OUR DAYS AT DEAR OLD....

theres a strange exilhiration in such total
detestation. It's so pure so strong though i do admit it came on fast

Ozians:
Dear Galinda you are just too good

but Galinda you're a martyr.
Galinda:
Well, these things are sent to try us.

4. "DANCING THROUGH LIFE"
Fiyero:
The trouble with schools is
they always try to teach the wrong
lesson
believe me, i've been kicked out
of enough of them to know
they want you to become less callow
less shallow but i say: "why invite stress in?"
stop studying strife
and learn to life "the unexamined life"
Dancing through life
skimming the surface
gliding where turf is smooth
life's more painless
for the brainless
why think too hard?
when it's so soothing
dancing through life
no need to tough it
when you can sluff it off as i do
nothing matters
but knowing nothing matters
it's just life
so keep dancing through...
dancing through life
swaying and sweeping
and always keeping cool
life is fraughtless
when you're thoughtless
those who don't try
never look foolish
dancing through life
mindless and careless
make sure your where less
trouble is rife
woes are fleeting
blows are glancing
when you're dancing
through life...
(Spoken)
so-whats the most swankified place in town?
Galinda:
(Spoken)
that would be the Oz Dust Ballroom
Fiyero:
(Spoken)
sounds perfect.
(Sung)
Let's go down to the Oz Dust Ballroom
we'll meet there later tonight
we can dance till it lights
find the prettiest girl...
give her a whirl
right on down to the Oz Dust Ballroom
come on, follow me
you'll be happy to be there...
all:
dancing through life
down at the Oz Dust...
Fiyero:
if only because dust is what we come to...
All:
nothing matters
but knowing nothing matters
Fiyero:
It's just..
all and Fiyero:
life
Fiyero:
so keep dancing through...
Boq:
(Spoken)
miss Galinda- i hope you'll save at least one
dance for me. i'll be right there. waiting. all night
Galinda:
(Spoken)
oh- thats so kind. but you know what would
be even kinder?
(Sung)
See that tragic'ly beautiful girl
the one in the chair
it seems so unfair
we should go on a spree
and not she
gee-
i know someone would be my hero
if that someone were
to go invite her...
Boq:
(Spoken)
well, maybe-i could invite her!
Galinda:
(Spoken)
Oh, Boq, really?
you would do that for me!?
Boq:
(Spoken)
i would do anything for you, miss galinda
Galinda:
(Spoken)
so...
Fiyero:
(Spoken)
so i'll be picking you up around eight?
Galinda:
(Spoken)
after all-
(Sung)
now that we've met one another...
Fiyero and Galinda:
its clear- we deserve each other
Galinda:
you're perfect...
Fiyero:
you're perfect...
Both:
so we're perfect together
born to be forever...
dancing through life...
Nessarose:
(Spoken)
Oh Elphaba- isn't it wonderful?
(Sung)
Fin'lly, for this one night
i'm about to have a fun night
with this munchkin boy
Galinda found for me
and i only wish there were
something i could do for her
to repay her
Elphaba see?
we deserve each other
and Galinda helped it come true
we deserve each other
me and Boq...
(Spoken)
please Elphaba, try to understand...
Elphaba:
i do...
Elphaba:
(Spoken)
Galinda listen Nessa and I were talking about you
just now-
Galinda:
(Spoken)
and i was just taling about you! I thought you
might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
(Sung)
It's really,uh, sharp, don't you think?
you know- black is this years pink
you deserve each other
this hat and you
you're both so smart
you deserve each other
so here, out of the goodness of my
heart...
Boq:
listen- Nessa-
Nessarose:
yes?
Boq:
uh- Nessa
i've got something to confess, a
reason why, well-
why i asked you here tonight
now i know it isn't fair...
Nessarose:
(Spoken)
Oh, Boq, I know why.
Boq:
(Spoken)
You do?
Nessarose:
it's because i'm in this chair
and you felt sorry for me
well- isn't that right?
Boq:
(Spoken)
No! NO! It's because...because...
(Sung)
Because you are so beautiful!
Nessarose:
(Spoken)
Oh, Boq,
(Sung)
i think you're wonderful!
and we desrve each other
don't you see, this is our chance?
we deserve each other
Don't we Boq?
Boq:
(Spoken)

(Sung)
LETS DANCE...
Nessarose:
(Spoken)
what?
Boq:
Let's dance!
All:
Dancing through life
down at the Oz Dust
if only because dust
is what we come to
and the strange thing:
your life could end up changing
while your dancing
through
5. "POPULAR"
GLINDA:
(Spoken)
Elphie, now that we're friends, I've decided to make you my new project!
ELPHABA:
(Spoken)
You really don't have to do that...
GALINDA:
(Spoken)
I know, that's what makes me so nice!
(Sung)
Whenever I see someone less fortunate than I,
And let's face it, who isn't less fortunate than I?
My tender heart tends to start to bleed.
And when someone needs a makeover,
I simply have to take over!
I know I know exactly what they need!
And even in your case,
Though it's the toughest case I've yet to face,
Don't worry, I'm determined to succeed!
Follow my lead,
And yes indeed, you will be...
POPULAR! You're gonna be popular!
I'll teach you the proper poise,
When you talk to boys,
Little ways to flirt and flounce, ooh!
I'll show you what shoes to wear!
How to fix your hair!
Everthing that really counts to be...
POPULAR! I'll help you be popular!
You'll hang with the right cohorts,
You'll be good at sports,
Know the slang you've got to know.
So let's start,
'Cause you've got an awfully long way to go!
Don't be offended by my frank analysis,
Think of it as personality dialysis,
Now that I've chosen to become a
Pal, a sister and advisor,
There's nobody wiser!
Not when it comes to...
POPULAR! i know about popular.
and with an assist from me,
to be who you'll be,
instead of dreary who you were...uh, are.
there's nothing that can stop you,
from becoming popular... lar...
la la, la la!
we're gonna make you pop-u-lar!
when i see depressing creatures,
with unprepossessing features,
I remind them on their own behalf
To - think - of
Celebrated heads of state,
Or specially great communicators!
Did they have brains or knowledge?
Don't make me laugh!
They were POPULAR!
Please! it's all about popular.
It's not about aptitude,
It's the way you're viewed,
So it's very shrewd to be,
Very very popular like ME!
(Spoken)
Why, Miss Elphaba, look at you. you're beautiful!
ELPHABA:
(Spoken)
I, I have to go...
GALINDA:
(Spoken)
You're welcome...
(Sung)
And though you protest,
Your disinterest,
I know clandestinely,
You're gonna grin and bear it!
Your new found popularity!
ah!
la la, la la!
You'll be popular!
Just not quite as popular as ME
6. "ONE SHORT DAY"
Elphaba (Spoken):
"Come with me, to the Emerald City"
Tourists:
One short day
in the Emerald city
Glinda (Spoken):
"Oh, I've always wanted to see the Emerald City"
Tourists:
One short day
in the Emerald City
One short day
in the Emerald City
One short day
Full of so much to do
Ev'ry way that you look in the city
There's something exquisite
That you'll want to visit
before the days through
Elphaba:
There are buildings as tall as quadswood trees
Glinda:
Dress salons
Elphaba:
And libraries
Glinda:
Palaces
Elphaba:
Museums
Both:
A hundred strong
There are wonders like I've never seen
Glinda:
It's all grand
Elphaba:
And it's all green
Both:
I think we've found the place where we belong!
I wanna be
In this hoi polloi
Elphaba:
So I'll be back for good someday!
Both:
To make my life and make my way
But for today, we'll wander and enjoy
Tourists:
One short day
In the Emerald City
One short day
To have a lifetime of fun
One short day
Glinda and Elphaba:
And were warning the city
Now that we're in here
You'll know we've been here
All:
Before we are done!
Glinda (Spoken):
"Elphie-come on-we'll be late for Wizomania!"
Wizomania Chorus:
Who's the mage
Whose major itinerary
Is making all Oz merrier?
Who's the sage
Who's sagely sailed in to save our posteriors?
Whose enthuse for hot air ballooning
Has all of Oz honeymooning?
Woo - oo -oo
Wizn't he wonderful?
(Our wonderful Wizard!)
Audience: Wizomania Chorus:
One short day Who's the mage
In the Emerald City Whose major itinerary
One short day Is making all Oz merrier
To have a lifetime Whose the sage who
Of fun Sagely sailed in to save
What a way Our posteriors

Elphaba and Glinda:
Where so many roam to
We'll call it home too
And then just like now we can say,
Were just two friends
Elphaba:
Two good friends
Glinda:
Two best friends
All:
Sharing one wonderful
one short...
Guard (Spoken):
"The wizard will see you now!"
All:
...day!
7. "DEFYING GRAVITY"
(Glinda)
(spoken dialogue over intro)
Elphaba, why couldn't you stay calm for once?
Instead of flying off the handle?
I hope you're happy! I hope you're happy, now!
I hope your happy how you hurt your cause forever;
I hope you think you're clever!
(Elphaba)
I hope you're happy!
I hope you're happy, too...
I hope you're proud how you
Would gravel in submission to feed your own ambition!
(Both)
So though I can't imagine how...
I hope you're happy, right now
(Glinda)
Alphie, listen to me, just say you're sorry...
(sung)
You can still be with the wizard,
What you've worked and waited for
You can have all you ever wanted
(Elphaba)
I know.
But I dont want it.
No, I can't want it
Anymore
Something has changed within me
something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
of someone else's game
Too late for second guessing
To late to go back to sleep
Is time to trust my instincts
Cose my eyes...
Ad leap
It's time to try defying gravity
I think i'll try defying gravity
and you can't pull me down
(Glinda)
Can't I make you understand?
Yo're having delusions of grand...
(Ehaba)
I'm through accepting limits
Cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till i try i'll never know
Too long i've been afraid of
Losing love, i guess i lost
Well if thats love,
It comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner try defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye i'm defying gravity
And you can pull me down!
(spoken)
Glinda, come with me...
Think of what we could do... together.
(sung)
Unlimited!
Together we're unlimited
Together well be the greatest team
There's ever been,
Glinda, dreams the way we planned 'em
(Glinda)
if we work intendem...
(Both)
there's no fight we cannot win
just you and I defying gravity
with you and I defying gravity
they'll never bring us down!
(Elphaba)
(spoken)
Well, are you coming?
(Glinda)
I hope your happy, now that your choosing this..
(Elphaba)
You too...
I hope it brings you bliss
(both)
I really hope you get it
And you dont live to regert it
I hope you're happy in the end
I hope you're happy, my friend...
(Elphaba)
So if you care to find me,
Look to the western sky!
As someone told me lately
"Everyone desreves a chance to fly!"
And if I'm flying solo
At least I'm flying free.
To those who'd ground me,
Take a message back from me:
Tell them how I am defying gravity
I'm flying high and defying gravity
And soon I'll match them in renown
And nobody in all of Oz,
No wizard that there is or was,
Is ever gonna bring me down!
(Glinda)
I hope you're happy...
Town folk:
(Lets get her, shes wicked, kill her!)
(Elphaba)
Bring me down!
Town folk:
(No one mourns the wicked)
(So we've got to bring her... down!)
(Elphaba)
Oh ah, ah, ah!
8. "THANK GOODNESS"
CITIZENS OF OZ
Ev'ry day, more wicked!
Ev'ry day, the terror grows!
All of Oz is ever on alert!
That's the way with Wicked -
Spreading fear where e'er she goes
Seeking out new victims she can hurt!
A HYSTERICAL WOMAN
Like some terrible green blizzard
Throughout the land she flies:
AN OUTRAGED MAN
Defaming our poor Wizard
With her calumnies and lies!
ALL
She lies!
Save us from the Wicked!
Shield us so we won't be hexed!
Give us warning:
Where will she strike next?
Where will she strike next?
Where will she strike next!?
GLINDA
(spoken) Fellow Ozians - as terrifying as terror is, let us put
aside our panic for this one day: and celebrate!
(sung) Oh what a celebration
We'll have today
CROWD
Thank Goodness!
GLINDA
Let's have a celebration
The Glinda way!
CROWD
Thank Goodness!
MORRIBLE
Fin'lly a day that's
Totally Wicked-Witch free!
CROWD
We couldn't be happier
Thank Goodness!
GLINDA
Yes -
We couldn't be happier,
Right, dear?
Couldn't be happier
Right here
Look what we've got
A fairy-tale plot
Our very own happy ending
Where we couldn't be happier -
True, dear?
Couldn't be happier
And we're happy to share
Our ending vicariously
With all of you
He couldn't look handsomer
I couldn't feel humbler
We couldn't be happier
Because happy is what happens
When all your dreams come true!
MORRIBLE(spoken) And Glinda dear, we're happy for you! As Press
Secretary, I have striven to ensure that all of Oz
knows the story of your braverism:
(sung) The day you were first summoned
To an audience with OzAnd although he would not tell you why initially
When you bowed before his throne
He decreed you'd hence be known
As Glinda the Good - officially!
Then with a jealous squeal
The Wicked Witch burst from concealment
Where she had been lurking -surrpetitially!
PEOPLE IN CROWD
I hear she has an extra eye
That always remains awake
I hear that she can shed her skin
As easily as a snake!
I hear some rebel Animals
Are giving her food and shelter!
I hear her soul is so unclean
Pure water can melt her!
FIYERO
What!?
CROWD
Melt her!?
Please - somebody go and melt her!
FIYERO
(spoken) Do you hear that - water will melt her?! People
are so empty-headed, they'll believe anything!
GLINDA
(spoken) Fiyero! Oh - yes, thanks plenty, dearest! He's gone to
fetch me a refreshment. He's so thoughtful that way!
(sung) That's why I couldn't be happier
No, I couldn't be happier
Though it is, I admit
The tiniest bit
Unlike I anticipated
But I couldn't be happier
Simply couldn't be happier
(spoken) Well - not "simply":
(sung) 'Cause getting your dreams
It's strange, but it seems
A little - well - complicated
There's a kind of a sort of : cost
There's a couple of things get: lost
There are bridges you cross
You didn't know you crossed
Until you've crossed
And if that joy, that thrill
Doesn't thrill you like you think it will
Still -
With this perfect finale
The cheers and ballyhoo
Who
Wouldn't be happier?
So I couldn't be happier
Because happy is what happens
When all your dreams come true
Well, isn't it?
Happy is what happens
When your dreams come true!
CROWD
We love you, Glinda, if we may be so frank
GLINDA
Thank Goodness!
CROWD
For all this joy, we know who we've got to thank:
Thank Goodness!
That means the Wizard, Glinda:
GLINDA
And fiance!
CROWD
They couldn't be goodlier
She couldn't be lovelier
We couldn't be luckier
GLINDA
I couldn't be happier
CROWDThank Goodness:
GLINDA AND CROWD
Today!
Thank Goodness for today!
9. "I'M NOT THAT GIRL (REPRISE)"
GLINDA:
Don't wish
Don't start
Wishing only
Wounds the heart
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl
10. "FOR GOOD"
Elphaba:
I'm limited
(Just look at me)
I'm limited
And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda
So now it's up to you
(For both of us)
Now it's up to you...
Glinda:
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
(Elphaba) It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
(Glinda) Because I knew you
(Both) I have been changed for good
(Elphaba) And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the thing I've done you blame me for
(Glinda) But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
(Both) And none of it seems to matter anymore
(Glinda) Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
(Elphaba) Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the distant wood
(Both) Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
(Glinda) And because I knew you...
(Elphaba) Because I knew you...
(Both) Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good.
11. "FINALE"
CELEBRANTS
No one mourns the Wicked
Now at last she's dead and gone
Now at last there's joy throughout the land
ALL
Good news!
Good news:
GLINDA
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better
But:
ELPHABA AND GLINDA
Because I knew you:
CROWD
No one mourns the Wicked:
GLINDA
Because I knew you:
ELPHABA AND GLINDA
I have been changed:
CROWD
No one mourns the Wicked
Wicked:
Wicked!
