“Wonderful” | Wicked | Juston LeBaron

I never asked for this
Or planned it in advance
I was merely blown here
By the winds of chance
I never saw myself
As a Solomon or Socrates
I knew who I was
One of your dime a dozen
Mediocrities
Then suddenly I'm here
Respected, worshipped, even
Just because the folks in Oz
Needed someone to believe in
Does it surprise you
I got hooked, and all too soon
What can I say?
I got carried away
And not just by balloon
"Wonderful
They called me
"Wonderful
So I said
"Wonderful
" If you insist
I will be
"Wonderful
And they said
"Wonderful
Believe me, it's hard to resist
'Cause it feels wonderful
They think I'm wonderful
Hey, look who's wonderful
This corn-fed hick
Who said:
"It might be keen
To build a town of green
And a wonderful road of yellow brick!
See, I never had a family of my own. So, I
Guess I just - wanted to give the citizens of Oz everything.
So you lied to them.
Elphaba, where I'm from, we believe all sorts of
Things that aren't true. We call it
"History.
A man's called a traitor or liberator
A rich man's a thief or philanthropist
Is one a crusader or ruthless invader?
It's all in which label
Is able to persist
There are precious few at ease
With moral ambiguities
So we act as though they don't exist
They call me
"Wonderful
So I am wonderful
In fact it's so much who I am
It's part of my name
And with my help, you can be the same
At long, long last receive your due
Long overdue
Elphaba, the most celebrated
Are the rehabilitated
There'll be such a whoop-de-doo
A celebration throughout Oz
That's all to do with you
Wonderful
They'll call you wonderful:
It does sound wonderful
Trust me, it's fun
When you are wonderful
It would be wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
One! Two! And...
