[DILLAMOND]
[spoken] Oh, Miss Elphaba - The things one hears these days. Dreadful things...
[sung] 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...

[ELPHABA]
Something bad? Happening in Oz?

[DILLAMOND]
Under the surface
Behind the scenes
Something baaaaaaad...
[spoken] Sorry. "Bad"

[ELPHABA (spoken)]
Doctor Dillamond - If something bad is happening
To the Animals, someone´s got to tell the Wizard.
That´s why we have a Wizard.
[sung] So nothing bad....

[DILLAMOND]
[spoken] I hope you´re right...

[BOTH]
Nothing all that bad...

[DILLAMOND]
Nothing truly baaaaaad....
[spoken] Sorry... "Bad"...

[ELPHABA]
It couldn´t happen here
In Oz...
