25. Its not easy being green ("The Wizard and I")

Elphaba sighed angrily as she stormed into her and Glinda's dorm room. She flung her bag down onto the floor, then flopped onto the bed and buried her head in her arms.

One day, I'll show those idiots. I'll show them it doesn't matter what you look like. Wait until I become the Wizard's grand vizier; then they won't laugh at me.

No one will.

"And I'll stand there with the Wizard

Feeling things I've never felt

And though I'd never show it

I'd be so happy I could melt

And so it will be for the rest of my life

And I'll want nothing else till I die

Held in such high esteem

When people see me they will scream

For half of Oz's favorite team

The Wizard and I!"
