Popular (from "Wicked")
(Glinda speaking) Elfie, now that we're friends I've decided to make you my new project
(Elfie speaking) You really don't have to do that
(Glinda speaking) I know, that's what make me so nice
(Glinda singing) When ever I see someone less fortunate than I
And lets face it; who isn't
Less fortunate than I
My tender heart tends to start to bleed
And when someone needs a make-over
I simply have to take over
I know, I know, exactly what they need
And even though your case
Is 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 the proper ploys
When you talk to boys
Little ways to flirt and flaunts
Oh, what shoes to wear
How to fix your hair
Everything 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
The slang you got to know
Now let's start because you got an awful long way to go
Don't be offended by my frank analysis
Think of it as personality dialysis
Now that I've choose to become
A sister and adviser
There's nobody wiser
Not when it comes to popular
I know about popular
And with assist from me
It is who you'll be
Instead of dreary who-you-were
Well are
There is nothing that can stop you
From becoming popular- lar
La la la la
We're gonna make you popular
When I see depressing creatures
With unprepossessing features
I remind them on their on 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 your view
So it's very screwed to be
Very, very popular like me
(Glinda speaking) Why, Miss Elphaba. Look at you, Your beautiful
(Elfie speaking) I- I have to go
(Glinda speaking) Your welcome
(Glinda singing) And though you protest
Your disinterest
I know clandestine
Your gonna grin and beary
Your new found popularity
La la la la
You'll be popular
Just not quite as popular as me
(Elfie speaking) You really don't have to do that
(Glinda speaking) I know, that's what make me so nice
(Glinda singing) When ever I see someone less fortunate than I
And lets face it; who isn't
Less fortunate than I
My tender heart tends to start to bleed
And when someone needs a make-over
I simply have to take over
I know, I know, exactly what they need
And even though your case
Is 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 the proper ploys
When you talk to boys
Little ways to flirt and flaunts
Oh, what shoes to wear

Everything that really counts
To be popular
I'll help you be popular
