Wonderful

Take it from a wise old carny

Once folks buy into your blarney

It becomes the thing they'll most hold onto

Once they've swallowed sham and hokum

Facts and logic won't unchoke 'em

They'll go on believing what they want to

Show them exactly what's the score

They'll just believe it even more

"Wonderful"

They called me "Wonderful"

So I said, "Wonderful"

If you insist

"Wonderful"

I will be wonderful

Believe me, it's hard to rеsist

'Cause it feels wonderful

They think hе's wonderful

Hey, look who's wonderful

This corn-fed hick

Who said, "It might be keen

To build a town of green

And a wonderful road of yellow brick"[WIZARD, spoken]

You know, we could be like a—, like a family

You know, I never really had a family

Lucky you

That's why I've wanted to give the citizens of Oz everything

So you lied to them?

The truth is not a thing of fact or reason

The truth is just what everyone agrees on

You see, back where I come from, we got a whole lot of people who believe all sorts of things that aren't true

You know what we call it?

History

A man's called a traitor or liberator

A rich man's a thief or philanthropist

Is one an invader or noble crusader?

It's all in which label is able to persist

There are precious few at ease with moral ambiguities

So we act as though they don't exist[GLINDA]

They call him, "Wonderful"

So I am wonderful

He is so wonderful

It's part of his name

And with our help, you can be the same

Elphie, think of what we could do

Together

Unlimited

Together, we're unlimited

Together, we'll be the greatest team there's ever been, Elphie

Dreams the way we planned 'em

If we work in tandem[GLINDA & ELPHABA]

There's no fight we cannot win

At long, long last, recieve your due

Long overdue

Elphaba

A celebration throughout Oz that's all to do

With you

Wonderful

They'll call you, "Wonderful"

Come and be wonderful

Trust me, it's fun

We will be wonderful

You'll make me wonderful

Wonderful, wonderful
