Something Bad (From "Wicked" Original Broadway Cast Recording/2003)

Oh Miss Elphaba

The things one hears these days

Dreadful things

I've heard of an Ox

A professor from Quox

No longer permitted to teach

Who has lost all powers of speech

And an Owl in Munchkin Rock

A vicar with a thriving flock

Forbidden to preach

Now he can only screech

Only rumors but still

Enough to give pause

To anyone with paws

Something bad

Is happening in Oz

Something bad

Happening in Oz

Under the surface

Behind the scenes

Something

Bad

Sorry Bad

Doctor Dillamond

If something bad is happening to

The Animals

Someone's got to tell the Wizard That's

Why we have a Wizard

So nothing bad

I hope you are right

Nothing all that bad

Nothing truly

Bad

Sorry Bad

It couldn't happen here

In Oz
