OOPS:
ENJOY ALL, Sorry it took so long...I got distracted!
DEFYING MEEEE! (c)
(The curtain opens and the stage is dark. A spotlight turns on, revealing ELPHABA. She is standing at a microphone with a magic wand in her hand.)
[To the tune of Over The Moon]
ELPHABA
Last night this girl threw water on me
I was in my castle at Kiamo Ko
And it hurt
I began to melt and I didn't know what to do
Out of the abyss walked a man, the Scarecrow
He bent over to me, knocked on the door, and said:
"Hey, there, babe, it worked…well
To the land of Oz, we cannot…(she hits her magic want against her leg)…return” (“return” echoes)
He said, “Only thing to do is to leave from Oz now
We’ve been banned forever, from Shiz and the Emerald City and pet stores
And now we are rebels heading to another…(she hits her magic want against her leg)…land (“land” echoes)
But remember this well…
CHORUS (hums)
Defy Grav…Gravity…Defy Grav…Gravity
ELPHABA
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
I have got to make good!
It’s like I’m being tied to the end of a broomstick, being flown into a river, left to melt! Tricked my the Wizard, all I see is that ditz’s blonde curls! I
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
gotta
Defy Gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Then, a little lion cub enetered. His name, we have learned, is Cowardly. And although that munchkin pr|ck says I ruined his life, we all know the truth:
1, 2, 3…”that witch,” he said, “ever since that girl was born she’s been creating….commotions. Our Headmistress and the Wizard, oh, they saw it right away…they said, “her green skin is but an outward manifestorium of her twisted nature, maybe it’s a…green-girl thing. Well look at her sister, that tragically beautiful Nessa – that eastern Wicth! Morrible and the Wiz, they’re down on their luck, they come knocking on Glinda’s door…and she says, “Nessa’s the answar, guys! Drop a house on her!”
“The only way for peace is to leave Oz” Fiyero whispered….
“Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaance through life!”
Still don’t know what to do? Let’s trick them all. And I bowed my head in understanding. And preceded to hand over the Grimmerie to Glinda…::sobb, sobb::
“Hide away now!” I told her.
And has the Witch hunters rose over the castle, I whipped my broom back, slapping and whacking, I came back through the trap door belting:
CHORUS (hums)
Defy Grav…Gravity…Defy Grav…Gravity
ELPHABA
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravity!
Only thing for me is trying to defy gravityyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It’s MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
