Wonderful Lyrics
[00:07.56] Take it from a wise old carny
[00:10.99] Once folks buy into your blarney
[00:14.77] It becomes the thing they'll most hold onto
[00:21.76] Once they've swallowed sham and hokum
[00:25.28] Facts and logic won't unchoke 'em
[00:29.24] They'll go on believing what they want to
[00:35.62] Show them exactly what's the score
[00:41.33] They'll just believe it even more
[00:55.39] "Wonderful"
[00:58.38] They called me "Wonderful"
[01:02.84] So I said, "Wonderful"
[01:06.96] If you insist
[01:12.35] "Wonderful"
[01:13.74] I will be wonderful
[01:16.90] Believe me, it's hard to resist
[01:20.57] 'Cause it feels wonderful!
[01:23.82] They think he's wonderful
[01:26.47] Hey, look who's wonderful
[01:28.93] This corn-fed hick
[01:31.18] Who said, "It might be keen to build a town of green
[01:36.12] And a wonderful road of yellow brick"
[01:40.15] You know, we could be like a-, like a family
[01:42.43] You know, I've never really had a family (lucky you)
[01:45.52] That's why I've wanted to give the citizens of Oz everything
[01:49.77] (So you lied to them)
[01:50.86] The truth is not a thing of fact or reason
[01:56.46] The truth is just what everyone agrees on
[02:01.92] You see, back where I come from
[02:03.98] We got a whole lot of people who believe all sorts of things that aren't true
[02:07.73] You know what we call it?
[02:10.40] History
[02:11.74] A man's called a traitor or liberator
[02:16.73] A rich man's a thief or philanthropist
[02:21.67] Is one an invader or noble crusader?
[02:26.49] It's all in which label is able to persist
[02:31.20] There are precious few at ease with moral ambiguities
[02:36.01] So we act as though they don't exist
[02:40.42] They call him "Wonderful"
[02:44.83] So I am wonderful
[02:47.20] He is so wonderful, it's part of his name
[02:52.70] And with our help, you can be the same
[02:58.46] Elphie, think of what we could do together
[03:03.26] Unlimited
[03:07.25] Together, we're unlimited
[03:12.31] Together, we'll be the greatest team there's ever been, Elphie
[03:18.97] (Dreams) the way we planned 'em
[03:23.01] If we work in tandem
[03:26.12] There's no fight we cannot win
[03:30.34] At long, long last, receive your due (long overdue)
[03:35.75] Elphaba
[03:37.51] A celebration throughout Oz
[03:41.16] That's all to do with you
[03:53.89] Wonderful
[03:56.14] They'll call you "Wonderful"
[03:59.17] Come and be wonderful
[04:01.96] Trust me, it's fun!
[04:04.50] We will be wonderful
[04:06.82] You'll make me wonderful
[04:09.96] Wonderful, wonderful!
[04:12.48]
[00:10.99] Once folks buy into your blarney
