Wicked Medley
Loathing, unadulterated loathing
For your face, your voice, your clothing
Let's just say I loathe it all
Though I do admit, it came on fast
Still, I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing, loathing you my whole life long
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
Mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting
Blows are glancing
When you're dancing
Through life
We're gonna make you popular
When I see depressing creatures
With unprepossessing features
I remind them on their own behalf
To think of
Celebrated heads of state or
Especially 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
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 (like a ship blown from its mooring)
As it passes, the sun (by a wind off the sea)
Like a stream that meets a boulder (like a seed dropped by a bird)
Halfway through the wood (in the wood)
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better
And because I knew you
Because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good
So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky
As someone told me lately
"Everyone deserves the 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'm defying gravity
I'm flying high, 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
I hope you're happy
Bring me down
So we've got to bring her down
For your face, your voice, your clothing
Let's just say I loathe it all
Though I do admit, it came on fast
Still, I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing, loathing you my whole life long
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
Mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting
Blows are glancing
When you're dancing
Through life
We're gonna make you popular
When I see depressing creatures
With unprepossessing features
I remind them on their own behalf
To think of

Especially great communicators

It's all about popular

Bring me down
So we've got to bring her down
