One Short Day
ELPHABA
(spoken) Come with me. To the Emerald City.
TOURISTS
Right this way
to the Emerald City
GLINDA
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
You'll want to visit
Before the day's through
ELPHABA
There are buildings as tall as Quoxwood 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
GLINDA
To make my life and make my way
BOTH
But for today, we'll wander and enjoy:
ALL
One short day
In the Emerald City
One short day
To have a lifetime of fun
One short day
ELPHABA AND GLINDA
And we're 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 Who's the mage
Whose major
Itinerary is making all of 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 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 (Who's the sage who)
Of fun Sagely (sailed in to save)
What a way (Our posteriors)
To be seeing the city:
ELPHABA AND GLINDA
Where so many roam to
We'll call it home, too
And then, just like now
We can say:
We're 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!
