Using Carl Tashian's awesome website, Lost in Translation, I was able to create this engrish list of Wicked song titles (the stuff in the quotes are comments by me":

No One Mourns the Wicked - Nobody Crosses False
Dear Old Shiz - Old Dear Shiz
The Wizard and I - The Magier and the I
What Is This Feeling? - Which Is This Sensitivity?
Something Bad - Something False
Dancing Through Life - Until the Dance of the Duration
Popular - #could not translate#
I'm Not That Girl - They Are Not This Girl "Imagine Idina singing this about her replacements!"
One Short Day - Operations of a Day "Chorus Number sung by doctors at the Oz Hospital"
A Sentimental Man - Sentimentally a Man
Defying Gravity - The Provocative Force of the Gravity
Thank Goodness - Ringrazi the Quality
The Wicked Witch of the East - The False Witch of the East
Wonderful - Narcotic "Want a little *cough* Green Elixer *cough* ?"
A Long As You're Mine - Like Longtemps, That is Since Then Meins
No Good Deed - No Good Contract "I HATE THIS JOB"
March of the Witch Hunters - It Goes of the Hunters of the Witch
For Good - For the Merchandise "And remember, the Oz Dust Boutique is still open after the show!"

Engrish is the name given to direct translations of chinese or japanese words into english.

I loved the defying gravity one, others weren't all that funny.

I always enjoyed the fact that in German, the opening song in HAIR is "Wasserman!"

And the German version of Urinetown is "PINKELSTADT - DAS MUSICAL!"
