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 Muchkin Rock

A vicar with a thriving flock

Forbidden to preach

Now he only can 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 Baaaaaaaad

Sorry, bad

Dr. Dillamond,

If something bad is happening to the animals

Someone has 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,

Baaaaaaaaaad.)

Sorry, bad.

It couldn't happen here

In Oz...
