Loading...

[nessarose, spoken]
elphaba, shut up! first of all
i can’t harbor a fugitive, i am an unelected official
and why should i help you?
you fly around oz trying to rescue animals you’ve never even met
and not once have you ever thought to use your powers to rescue me!
all of my life, i’ve depended on you

(sung)
how do you think that feels?
all of my life, i’ve depended on you
and this hideous chair with wheels
scrounging for scr+ps of pity to pick up
and longing to kick up my heels

[elphaba, spoken]
nessa, there isn’t a spell for everything
the… the power is mysterious, it not like cobbling up a pair of… wait!

(sung)
ambulahn dare pahto pahpoot

[nessarose, spoken]
what are you doing?

[elphaba, sung]
ambulahn dasca caldapess
[nessarose, spoken]
what does that mean?

[elphaba, sung]
lahfenahto lahfenahtum
pede pede caldapess
ambulahn dare
pahto pahpoot
lahfenahto lahfenahtum
pede pede caldapess

[nessa, as elphaba chants]
oh! my shoes! they feel like they’re on fire! what have you done to my shoes?

[nessa attempts so stand, then falls down]

no! no, don’t help me

[she tries again and successfully stands]

[elphaba, spoken]
oh nessa, at last!

(sung)
i’ve done what long ago i should
and finally from these powers something good
finally, something good
[nessarose, spoken]
boq! boq, come quickly!

[boq, spoken]
you did this for her?

[nessarose, spoken]
for both of us!

[boq, spoken]
oh nessa… this changes everything

[nessarose, spoken]
i know

[boq, spoken]
nessa

[nessarose, spoken]
yes?

[boq, sung]
oh, nessa
surely now i’ll matter less to you
you won’t mind my leaving here tonight
[nessarose, spoken]
leaving?

[boq, sung]
yes
that ball that’s being staged
announcing glinda is engaged
to fiyero

[nessarose, spoken]
glinda?

[boq, sung]
yes nessa, that’s right
i’ve got to go appeal to her
express the way i feel for her

(spoken)
nessa, i lost my heart to glinda from the moment i first saw her. you know that

[nessarose, spoken]
lost your heart?

(sung)
well, we’ll see about that

[elphaba, spoken]
nessa, let him go

[nessarose, sung]
did you think i’d let you leave me here flat?!

[boq, spoken]
don’t come any closer!

[nessarose, sung]
you’re going to lose your heart to me, i tell you!
if i have, i have to… magic spell you
ah… tum… core… tum… ah… tum… tah… tayk–

[elphaba (as nessa chants)]
nessa, no, it’s dangerous…

[boq]
what’s she doing?

[elphaba]
you’re pr+nouncing the words all wrong…

[boq]
i’m warning you! don’t try to stop me!
oh!

[elphaba]
oh no… nessa!

[nessa (stops chanting)]
boq, what is it?

[boq]
my heart… it feels… it feels like it’s shrinking!

[nessa]
oh, elphaba, do something!

[elphaba]
i can’t. you can’t reverse a spell once it’s been cast

[nessa, spoken]
then what do we do?! this is all your fault! if you had not shown me that horrenible book

[elphaba, spoken]
i’ve got to find another spell. it’s the only thing that might work

[nessarose, sung]
save him please, just save him
my poor boq, my sweet, my brave him
don’t leave me ’til my sorry life has ceased

[elphaba begins chanting in melody]

[nessarose, sung]
alone and loveless here
just the girl in the mirror
just her and me, wicked witch of the east!
we deserve each other
