Oops. I did it again. It's just, I'm equally obsessed with Wicked and Hamilton right now, and this is the result of that. Who knows? Maybe I'll have Alexander Hamilton sing Defying Gravity next, with Burr as Glinda!

Enjoy this weird little piece of my mind!

Averic:

There's nothing rich folks love more

Than goin' downtown and slummin' it with the poor.

They pull up in their carriages and gawk

At the students in the colleges to watch 'em talk.

Take Frexspar Thropp, the man is loaded.

Uh oh, but little does he know that his daughters,

Elphaba, Nessa, and their friend Glinda,

Slip into the EC just to watch all the guys at …

/

All:

Work!
Work!

/

Elphaba:

Elphaba.

/

All:

Work!
Work!

/

Nessarose:

Nessa.

/

Glinda:

And Glinda!

/

Elphaba & Nessa:

The Thropp sisters.

/

Elphaba:

Elphaba.

/

Glinda:

Glinda.

/

Nessarose:

Nessa.

/

All:

Work!

/

Nessarose:

Daddy said to be home by sundown.

/

Elphaba:

Daddy doesn't need to know.

/

Nessarose:

Daddy said not to go downtown.

/

Glinda:

Like I said, you're free to go.

/

Elphaba:

But look around, look around!

The revolution's happening in the EC.

/

Glinda & Nessarose:

The EC!

/

All:

Elphaba …

Work!

/

Nessarose:

It's bad enough he's breaking from the Wizard's hand.

/

Glinda:

People shouting in the square.

/

Nessarose:

It's bad enough there'll be violence in our land.

/

Elphaba:

New ideas in the air!

/

All Three:

Look around!
Look around!

/

Glinda:

Elphaba, remind me what we're looking for.

/

Averic:

She's lookin' for me!

/

Elphaba:

Glinda, I'm lookin' for a mind at work.

I'm lookin' for a mind at work.

I'm lookin' for a mind at work.

Whoaaa!

/

All Three:

Whoaaa!
Work!

/

Averic:

Woo!
There's nothin' like summer in the city,

Someone in a rush, next to someone lookin' pretty.

Excuse me, miss, I know it's not funny,

But your perfume smells like your daddy's got money.

Why you slummin' in the city in your fancy heels?
You searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals?

/

Elphaba:

Tenmeadows, you disgust me.

/

Averic:

Ah, so you've discussed me.

I'm a trust fund;

Baby, you can trust me!

/

Elphaba:

I've independently opposed the Wizard's reign.

Some men say that I'm intense or insane.

You want a revolution?
I want a revelation!

So listen to my declaration:

/

All Three:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal."

/

Elphaba:

And when I meet the Wizard …

/

Glinda & Nessarose:

Unh!

/

Elphaba:

I'mma compel him

To include women in the sequel!

/

All:

Work!

/

Glinda:

Look around, look around

At how lucky we are to be alive right now.

/

Glinda & Nessarose:

Look around, look around

At how lucky we are to be alive right now!

/

All Three:

History is happenin' in the EC,

And we just happen to be

In the greatest city in Oz!

In the greatest city in Oz!

/

Elphaba:

'Cause I've independently opposed the Wizard's reign.

Some men say that I'm intense or insane.

You want a revolution?
I want a revelation!

So listen to my declaration:

/

All Three:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal."

Look around, look around

At how lucky we are to be alive right now!

History is happenin' in the EC,

And we just happen to be

In the greatest city in Oz!

In the greatest city in Oz!

/

All:

Work!
Work!

/

Elphaba:

Elphaba.

/

All:

Work!
Work!

/

Nessarose:

Nessa.

/

Glinda:

And Glinda!

/

Elphaba & Nessarose:

The Thropp sisters.

/

All Three:

We're lookin' for a mind at work.

/

Glinda & Nessarose:

Hey!
Hey!

/

Elphaba:

Whoaa!

/

All Three:

In the greatest city

In the greatest city in Oz!

/

All:

The greatest city in Oz!

Yeah. That's that.

I SWEAR I am working on Memories!
Thanks for reading!
