Galinda:
Dearest,darlingest Momsie and Popsicle
Elphaba:
My dear father
Galinda&Elphaba:
There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz
Elphaba:
But of course,I'll care for Nessa
Galinda:
But of course,I'll rise above it
Galinda & Elphaba:
For I know that's how you'd want me to respond
Yes
There's been some confusion for,you see,my roommate is
Galinda:
Unusually and exceedingly peculiar
And altogether quite impossible to describe
Elphaba:
Blonde
Galinda:
What is this feeling,so sudden and new?
Elphaba:
I felt the moment I laid eyes on you
Galinda:
My pulse is rushing
Elphaba:
My head is reeling
Galinda:
My face is flushing
Galinda & Elphaba:
What is this feeling?
Fervid as a flame
Does it have a name?
Yes
Loathing
Unadulterated loathing
Galinda:
For your face
Elphaba:
Your voice
Galinda:
Your clothing
Galinda & Elphaba:
Let's just say
I loathe it all
Every little trait,however small
Makes my very flesh begin to crawl
With simple,utter loathing
There's a strange exhilaration
In such total detestation
It's so pure,so strong
Though I do admit,it came on fast
Still,I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing
Loathing you my whole life long
students:
Dear Galinda,you are just too good
How do you stand it?I don't think I could
She's a terror,she's a tartar, we don't mean to show a bias
But,Galinda, you're a martyr
Galinda:
Well,these things are sent to try us
students:
Poor Galinda,forced to reside
With someone so disgusticified
We just want to tell you,we're all on your side
We share your loathing
