Dr. Dillamond, spoken: Oh, miss Elphaba...
The things one hears these days.
Dreadful things.
Sung: I've heard of an ox, a professor from Quox,
No longer permitted to teach,
Who has lost all powers of speech!
And an owl in Munchkin Rock,
A vicar with a thriving flock,
Forbidden to preach!
Now he only can screech...
Only rumors, but still
Enough to give pause
To anyone with paws!
Something bad... is happening in Oz.
Elphaba: Something bad...
Happening in Oz?
Dr. Dillamond: Under the surface,
Behind the scenes,
Something baaaaaad...
Spoken: I'm sorry, bad.
Elphaba, spoken: Dr. Dillamond...
If something bad is happening to the animals, someone's got to tell the wizard.
That's why we have a wizard.
Sung: So nothing bad
Dr. Dillamond, spoken: I hope you're right.
Both, sung: Nothing all that bad...
Dr. Dillamond: Nothing truly baaaaaad...
Spoken: Sorry... bad.
Elphaba, sung: It couldn't happen here...
