What is this feeling

GALINDA:
(spoken) Dearest darlingest Momsie and Popsicle:
ELPHABA:
(spoken) My dear Father:
BOTH:
There's been some confusion
Over rooming here IN HALLS
ELPHABA:
I will care for my sister
GALINDA:
But of course, I'll rise above it:
BOTH:
For I know that's how you'd want me to respond
(Spoken:) 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;
BOTH:
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;
BOTH:
Let's just say - I loathe it all
Ev'ry 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;
BOTH:
What is this feeling
So sudden and new?
I felt the moment I laid eyes on you
My pulse is rushing
My head is reeling
Oh, what is this feeling?
Does it have a name?
Yes
Ahhh
STUDENTS (BACKGROUND):
Loathing Unadulterated loathing
For her face, her voice, her clothing
let's just say - we loathe it all
ev'ry little trait however small
makes our very flesh being to crawl
AHHH!

Loathing!

The Wonder of You


(Solo)
When no-one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You give me hope and consolation
You give me strength to carry on

And you try to show your love for me
In everything you do
That's the wonder, the wonder of you

(Choir enter and sing backing Ahh's )

And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and I'm a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything

Guess I'll never know the reason why
You love me like you do
that's the wonder, the wonder of you

(Choir sing Ahh's )
When no-one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You give me hope and consolation
You give me strength to carry on

Guess I'll never know the reason why
You love me like you do
that's the wonder, the wonder of you

(All sing words )
And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and I'm a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything

Guess I'll never know the reason why
You love me like you do
that's the wonder, the wonder of you (hold last note )

I am cow




I AM COW
I am cow, hear me moo
I weigh twice as much as you
And I look good on the barbecue
Yogurt, curd, cream cheese and butters
Made from liquid from my udders
I am cow, I am cow, hear me moo (moo)
I am cow, eating grass
Methane gas comes out my BOTTOM
And out my muzzle when I belch
Oh, the ozone layer is thinner
From the outcome of my dinner
I am cow, I am cow, Ive got gas
I am cow, here I stand
Far and wide upon this land
And I am living everywhere
From b.c. to newfoundland
You can squeeze my teats by hand
I am cow, I am cow, I am cow
I am cow, I am cow, I am cow!
