Wicked Broad Way Musical  Season #winter

Ozians:

GOOD NEWS, SHE'S DEAD!

THE WITCH OF THE WEST IS DEAD!

THE WICKEDEST WITCH THERE EVER WAS,

THE ENEMY OF ALL OF US HERE IN OZ,

IS DEAD! GOOD NEWS! GOOD NEWS!

Ozian:
Look, it's Glinda!

Glinda floats in on a giant bubble

Glinda:
It's good to see me, isn't it? (Ozians Agree) No need to respond that was rhetorical. Fellow Ozians:

LET US BE GLAD,

LET US BE GRATEFUL,

LET US REJOICIFY THAT GOODNESS COULD SUBDUE

THE WICKED WORKINGS OF YOU KNOW WHO!

ISN'T IT NICE TO KNOW

THAT GOOD WILL CONQUER EVIL?

THE TRUTH WE ALL BELIEVE'LL BY AND BY

OUTLIVE A LIE:

FOR YOU AND...

Ozian:
Glinda! Exactly how dead is she?

Glinda:
Well, there has been much rumor and speculation... innuendo, outuendo...

but let me set the record straight. According to the Time Dragon Clock, the melting occurred at the 13th hour;

a direct result of a bucket of water thrown by a female child. Yes, the Wicked Witch of the West is dead!

Ozian:

NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED!

Ozian:

NO ONE CRIES THEY WON'T RETURN!

Ozians:

NO ONE LAYS A LILY ON THEIR GRAVE!

Ozian Man:

THE GOOD MAN SCORNS THE WICKED!

Women:

THROUGH THEIR LIVES OUR CHILDREN LEARN!

Ozians:

WHAT WE MISS WHEN WE MISBEHAVE!

Glinda:

AND GOODNESS KNOWS

THE WICKEDS' LIVES ARE LONELY

GOODNESS KNOWS:

THE WICKED DIE ALONE

IT JUST SHOWS WHEN YOU'RE WICKED

YOU'RE LEFT ONLY

ON YOUR OWN:

Ozians:

YES, GOODNESS KNOWS

THE WICKEDS' LIVES ARE LONELY

GOODNESS KNOWS:

THE WICKED CRY ALONE

NOTHING GROWS FOR THE WICKED

THEY REAP ONLY:

WHAT THEY'VE SEWN

Ozian:
Glinda, why does wickedness happen?

Glinda:
That's a good question; one that many people find confusifying. Are people born wicked,

or do they have wickedness thrust upon them? After all, she had a childhood,;

She had a father, who just happed to be the governor of munchlinkland Witch's Parents Enter.

Frex:
I'm off to the assembly, dear.

Glinda:
She had a mother, as so many do...

Frex:

HOW I HATE TO GO AND LEAVE YOU LONELY

Melena:

THAT'S ALRIGH IT'S ONLY JUST ONE NIGHT

Frex:

BUT KNOW THAT YOU'RE HERE, IN MY HEART

WHILE I'M OUT OF YOUR SIGHT!

Frex Exits. A Lover Runs Into The Room.

Glinda:
And like all families, they had their secrets.

Lover:

HAVE ANOTHER DRINK, MY DARK EYED BEAUTY,

I'VE GOT ONE MORE NIGHT LEFT HERE IN TOWN,

SO HAVE ANOTHER DRINK OF GREEN ELIXER

AND WE'LL HAVE OURSELVES A LITTLE MIXER

HAVE ANOTHER LITTLE SWALLOW LITTLE LADY,

AND FOLLOW ME DOWN

Glinda:
And of course, from the moment she was born she was... well... different!

Midwife:
AHHH!! It's coming!

Frex:
Now?

Midwife:
The baby's coming!

Frex:
And how!

Midwife:

I SEE A NOSE!

Frex:

I SEE A CURL!

Both:

IT'S A HEALTHY, PERFECT, LOVELY LITTLE...

(They Scream)

Melena:
What is it? What's wrong?

Midwife:

HOW CAN IT BE?

Frex:

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Midwife:

IT'S ATTROCIOUS!

Frex:

IT'S OBSCENE!

Both:

LIKE A FROGGY, FERNY CABBAGE,

THE BABY IS UNATURALLY

GREEN!!!

Frex:
Take it away... Take it away!!!!

Glinda:
So you see, it couldn't have been easy!

Munchkins:

NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED!

NOW AT LAST, SHE'S DEAD AND GONE!

NOW AT LAST THERE'S JOY THROUGHOUT THE LAND!

AND GOODNESS KNOWS (GOODNESS KNOWS)

WE KNOW WHAT GOODNESS IS (OOOOHHHH)

GOODNESS KNOWS, THE WICKED DIE ALONE (SHE DIED ALONE)

WOE TO THOSE (WOE TO THOSE)

WHO SPURN WHAT GOODNESSES THEY ARE SHOWN!

NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED (GOOD NEWS)

NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED (GOOD NEWS)

NO ONE MOURNS... THE WICKED...

WICKED...

WICKED!!!!!

Glinda:
Well, this has been fun! But as you can imagine I have much to attend to,

what with the Wizard's unexpected departure. So, if there are no further questions...

Ozian:
Glinda, is it true you were her friend?

Ozians Gasp

Glinda:
Well, I... you see... um... yes.

Louder Gasps

Glinda:
Well, it depends on what you mean by "friend". She Motions Her Bubble Downward.

I did know her. That is, our paths did cross... at school. But you must understand, it was a long time ago and we were both very young.
