[00:15.30]CITIZENS OF OZ
[00:15.86]Ev'ry day, more wicked
[00:18.46]Ev'ry day, the terror grows
[00:21.42]All of Oz is ever on alert
[00:26.60]That's the way with Wicked
[00:29.78]Spreading fear where e'er she goes
[00:32.60]Seeking out new victims she can hurt
[00:36.60]A Hysterical Woman
[00:37.16]Like some terrible green blizzard
[00:39.34]Throughout the land she flies
[00:40.60]An Outraged Man
[00:41.17]Defaming our poor Wizard
[00:42.74]With her calumnies and lies
[00:42.84]
[00:44.60]ALL
[00:45.16]She lies!
[00:50.39]Save us from the Wicked!
[00:54.29]Shield us so we won't be hexed!
[00:58.10]Give us warning:
[00:59.56]Where will she strike next?
[01:02.83]Where will she strike next?
[01:05.90]Where will she strike next!?

[01:52.90]Right here
[01:53.70]Look what we've got
[01:55.29]A fairy-tale plot
[01:56.47]Our very own happy ending
[02:00.97]Where we couldn't be happier -
[02:04.89]True, dear?
[02:06.07]Couldn't be happier
[02:08.57]And we're happy to share
[02:10.91]Our ending vicariously
[02:13.37]With all of you
[02:15.69]He couldn't look handsomer
[02:18.01]I couldn't feel humbler
[02:20.67]We couldn't be happier
[02:23.58]Because happy is what happens
[02:27.41]When all your dreams come true!
[02:34.30]MORRIBLE
[02:34.99](spoken) And Glinda dear, we're happy for you! As Press
[02:39.52]Secretary, I have striven to ensure that all of Oz
[02:44.07]knows the story of your braverism:
[02:47.68](sung) The day you were first summoned
[02:49.98]To an audience with OzAnd although he would not tell you why initially
[02:56.60]When you bowed before his throne
[02:58.97]He decreed you'd hence be known
[03:01.36]As Glinda the Good - officially!
[03:06.45]Then with a jealous squeal
[03:09.64]The Wicked Witch burst from concealment
[03:13.42]Where she had been lurking -surrpetitially!
[03:19.30]PEOPLE IN CROWD
[03:19.73]I hear she has an extra eye
[03:21.89]That always remains awake
[03:23.89]I hear that she can shed her skin
[03:25.99]As easily as a snake!
[03:28.33]I hear some rebel Animals
[03:30.29]Are giving her food and shelter!
[03:32.76]I hear her soul is so unclean
[03:35.30]Pure water can melt her!
[03:38.30]FIYERO
[03:38.79]What!?
[03:39.30]CROWD
[03:39.83]Melt her!?
[03:41.36]Please - somebody go and melt her!
[03:45.10]FIYERO
[03:45.51](spoken) Do you hear that - water will melt her?! People are so empty-headed, they'll believe anything!
[03:49.30]GLINDA
[03:49.95](spoken) Fiyero! Oh - yes, thanks plenty, dearest! He's gone to fetch me a refreshment. He's so thoughtful that way!
[04:00.33](sung) That's why I couldn't be happier
[04:06.53]No, I couldn't be happier
[04:10.89]Though it is, I admit
[04:13.18]The tiniest bit
[04:14.74]Unlike I anticipated
[04:19.54]But I couldn't be happier
[04:23.33]Simply couldn't be happier
[04:27.79](spoken) Well - not "simply":
[04:30.02](sung) 'Cause getting your dreams
[04:32.28]It's strange, but it seems
[04:33.82]A little - well - complicated
[04:38.54]There's a kind of a sort of : cost
[04:44.09]There's a couple of things get: lost
[04:49.43]There are bridges you cross
[04:51.86]You didn't know you crossed
[04:54.93]Until you've crossed...
[05:00.41]And if that joy, that thrill
[05:05.20]Doesn't thrill you like you think it will
[05:10.68]Still -
[05:12.19]With this perfect finale
[05:14.69]The cheers and ballyhoo
[05:16.12]Who
[05:18.86]Wouldn't be happier?
[05:21.53]So I couldn't be happier
[05:25.47]Because happy is what happens
[05:29.64]When all your dreams come true
[05:36.69]Well, isn't it?
[05:40.19]Happy is what happens
[05:43.00]When your dreams come true!
