Wicked The Wizard And I Lyrics

The Wizard And I lyrics

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
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 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
May be last on the wire
When we are hand iin hand
The Wizard and I

And one day he'll say to me 'Elphaba
The 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 vertigree
Would it be all right by you
If I
De-greenify you?'
'Well, 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 though 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 walk up the aisles 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.
