I'm with Bobby those Lyrics are powerful and are sung with such force and malice.
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

An ideal "Last Midnight" for me would have no baby (which means keeping those lyrics) but the ending lyric changes that help clarify the story.

Also, Sondheim at one point wanted the witch to EAT the baby at the end of the song. (No kidding-this is actually from Vanessa Williams herself). Lapine nixed that pretty quickly.

Our production did the aging thing at the end of "Last Midnight" but instead of pulling the wig off completely, I pulled chunks out...it was a little more...intense (in my opinion, from what I've seen I find the whole wig a bit laughable)
