Idina Menzel – Something Bad lyrics

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 baaaaaaad...
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're right...

Nothing all that bad...

Nothing truly baaaaaad....
Sorry... "Bad"...

It couldn't happen here
In Oz...
