Witches
Popular - From "Wicked"
(Helen Dallimore) 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.
(Lucy Durack) and when someone needs a makeover,
i simply have to take over!
i know! i know exactly what they need!
(Helen Dallimore) 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...
(Lucy Durack) POPULAR! you're gonna be popular!
i'll teach you the propper ploys,
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...
(Helen Dallimore) 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,
(Lucy Durack) a sister and advisor,
(Helen Dallimore) there's nobody wiser!
(Lucy Durack) not when it comes to...
POPULAR! i know about popular.
(Helen Dallimore) and with an assist from me,
to be who you'll be,
instead of dreary who you were... uh, are.
(Lucy Durack) there's nothing that can stop you,
from becoming popular... (Helen Dallimore) lar...
(Both) la la, la la!
we're gonna make you pop-u-lar!
(Helen Dallimore) 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?
(Lucy Durack) 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!
and though you protest,
your disinterest,
i know clandestinly,
you're gonna' grin and bear it!
you're new found popularity!
ah!
(Both) la la, la la!
you'll be popular!
just not quite as popular as ME!
and let's face it, who isn't less fortunate than i?
my tender heart tends to start to bleed.
(Lucy Durack) and when someone needs a makeover,
i simply have to take over!
i know! i know exactly what they need!
