One Short Day
ELPHABA: (spoken) Come with me. To the Emerald City.
TOURISTS: One short day, in 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
Every 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 tall as Quoxwood trees
GLINDA: Dress salons
ELPHABA: 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!
TOURISTS: One short day, in the Emerald City
