Call Me Beautiful
The lights of the stage come on. Elphaba stands up and sings the song that she wrote.
"I looked in her room
Her sitting with her guy
I'm left alone, and ignored
Ever wondering if I'll ever find love
I want someone to say that I'm beautiful
Someone to depend on
Someone to tell me that everything's gonna be alright
Laughing these silent tears in my mind away
I think in my mind is that this is for
I want somebody to call me beautiful
I see them walking down the hall
Her leaning her head on his shoulder
I want him to realize that I'm the girl
I'm sitting in the backseat, while they're walking
hand in hand
I want someone to say that I'm beautiful
Someone to depend on
Someone to tell me that everything's gonna be alright
Laughing these silent tears in my mind away
I think in my mind is that this is for
I want somebody to call me beautiful
I want him to see that she's not it
He makes it so hard for me to breathe
I feel my eyes burn
So I run and hide under a tree
And cry
I want someone to say that I'm beautiful
Someone to depend on
Someone to tell me that everything's gonna be alright
Laughing these silent tears in my mind away
I think in my mind is that this is for
I want somebody to call me beautiful
Call me b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l
That's beautiful"
What she didn't notice was that in the audience, Fiyero had given her a standing ovation.
