GALINDA:(spoken) Dearest darlingest momsie and popsical
ELPHABA: (spoken) My dear father
BOTH: (sing)There's been some confusion
Over rooming here at Shiz
ELPHABA: But of course, I'll care for Nessa
GALINDA: But of course, I'll rise above it
BOTH: For I know that's how you'd want me to respond
Yes, there's been some confusion
For you see, my room-mate is
GALINDA: Unusually and exceedingly peculiar
And altogether quite impossible to describe
ELPHABA: (spoken) Blonde!
GALINDA.: What is this feeling So sudden and new?
ELPHABA.: I felt the moment I laid eyes on you
GALINDA.: My pulse is rushing
ELPHABA.: My head is reeling
GALINDA.: My face is flushing
BOTH: Oh, what is this feeling?
Fervid as a flame
Does it have a name?
Yes!
Loathing
Unadulterated loathing
GALINDA.: For your face
ELPHABA.: Your voice
GALINDA.: Your clothing
BOTH: Let's just say, I loathe it all!
Every little trait, however small
Makes my very flesh begin to crawl
With simple utter loathing
There's a strange exhilaration
In such total detestation
It's so pure! So strong!
Though I do admit it came on fast
Still I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing
Loathing you
My whole life long!
STUDENTS: Dear Galinda, you are just too good!
How do you stand it? I don't think I could!
She's a terror! She's a tartar!
We don't mean to show a bias
But Glinda you're a martyr!
GALINDA: Well, these things are sent to try us!
STUDENTS: Poor Galinda, forced to reside
With someone so disgusticified
We just want to tell you
We're all on your side!
We share your -
ELPHABA & GALINDA:
What is this feeling
So sudden and new?
I felt the moment
I laid eyes on you
My pulse is rushing
My head is reeling
Oh, what is this feeling?
Does it have a name?
Yes
There's a strange exhilaration
In such total detestation
It's so pure, so strong!
So strong!
Though I do admit it came on fast
Still I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing
For, forever loathing
Truly, deeply loathing you loathing you
My whole life long!
ELPHABA: Boo!
