Текст песни Thank Goodness - Stephen Schwartz
CITIZENS
OF
OZ
Ev'ry
day,
more
wicked!
Ev'ry
day,
the
terror
grows!
All
of
Oz
is
ever
on
alert!
That's
the
way
with
Wicked
-
Spreading
fear
where
e'er
she
goes
Seeking
out
new
victims
she
can
hurt!
A
HYSTERICAL
WOMAN
Like
some
terrible
green
blizzard
Throughout
the
land
she
flies:
AN
OUTRAGED
MAN
Defaming
our
poor
Wizard
With
her
calumnies
and
lies!
ALL
She
lies!
Save
us
from
the
Wicked!
Shield
us
so
we
won't
be
hexed!
Give
us
warning:
Where
will
she
strike
next?
Where
will
she
strike
next?
Where
will
she
strike
next!?
GLINDA
(Spoken)
Fellow
Ozians
- as
terrifying
as
terror
is,
let
us
put
Aside
our
panic
for
this
one
day:
and
celebrate!
(Sung)
Oh
what
a
celebration
We'll
have
today
CROWD
Thank
Goodness!
GLINDA
Let's
have
a
celebration
The
Glinda
way!
CROWDThank
Goodness!
MORRIBLE
Fin'lly
a
day
that's
Totally
Wicked-Witch
free!
CROWD
We
couldn't
be
happier
Thank
Goodness!
GLINDA
Yes
-
We
couldn't
be
happier,
Right,
dear?
Couldn't
be
happier
Right
here
Look
what
we've
got
A
fairy-tale
plot
Our
very
own
happy
ending
Where
we
couldn't
be
happier
-
True,
dear?
Couldn't
be
happier
And
we're
happy
to
share
Our
ending
vicariously
With
all
of
you
He
couldn't
look
handsomer
I
couldn't
feel
humbler
We
couldn't
be
happier
Because
happy
is
what
happens
When
all
your
dreams
come
true!
MORRIBLE(spoken)
And
Glinda
dear,
we're
happy
for
you!
As
Press
Secretary,
I
have
striven
to
ensure
that
all
of
Oz
Knows
the
story
of
your
braverism:
(Sung)
The
day
you
were
first
summoned
To
an
audience
with
Oz
And
although
he
would
not
tell
you
why
initially
When
you
bowed
before
his
throne
He
decreed
you'd
hence
be
known
As
Glinda
the
Good
- officially!
Then
with
a
jealous
squeal
The
Wicked
Witch
burst
from
concealment
Where
she
had
been
lurking
-surrpetitially!
PEOPLE
IN
CROWD
I
hear
she
has
an
extra
eye
That
always
remains
awake
I
hear
that
she
can
shed
her
skin
As
easily
as
a
snake!
I
hear
some
rebel
Animals
Are
giving
her
food
and
shelter!
I
hear
her
soul
is
so
unclean
Pure
water
can
melt
her!
FIYERO
What!?
CROWD
Melt
her!?
Please
- somebody
go
and
melt
her!
FIYERO
(Spoken)
Do
you
hear
that
- water
will
melt
her?!
People
Are
so
empty-headed,
they'll
believe
anything!
GLINDA
(Spoken)
Fiyero!
Oh
- yes,
thanks
plenty,
dearest!
He's
gone
to
Fetch
me
a
eshment.
He's
so
thoughtful
that
way!
(Sung)
That's
why
I
couldn't
be
happier
No,
I
couldn't
be
happier
Though
it
is,
I
admit
The
tiniest
bit
Unlike
I
anticipated
But
I
couldn't
be
happier
Simply
couldn't
be
happier
(Spoken)
Well
- not
"simply":
(Sung)
'Cause
getting
your
dreams
It's
strange,
but
it
seems
A
little
- well
- complicated
There's
a
kind
of
a
sort
of:
cost
There's
a
couple
of
things
get:
lost
There
are
s
you
cross
You
didn't
know
you
crossed
Until
you've
crossed
And
if
that
joy,
that
thrill
Doesn't
thrill
you
like
you
think
it
will
Still
-
With
this
perfect
finale
The
cheers
and
ballyhoo
Who
Wouldn't
be
happier?
So
I
couldn't
be
happier
Because
happy
is
what
happens
When
all
your
dreams
come
true
Well,
isn't
it?
Happy
is
what
happens
When
your
dreams
come
true!
CROWD
We
love
you,
Glinda,
if
we
may
be
so
frank
GLINDAThank
Goodness!
CROWD
For
all
this
joy,
we
know
who
we've
got
to
thank:
Thank
Goodness!
That
means
the
Wizard,
Glinda:
GLINDA
And
fiance!
CROWD
They
couldn't
be
goodlier
She
couldn't
be
lovelier
We
couldn't
be
luckier
GLINDA
I
couldn't
be
happier
CROWDThank
Goodness:
GLINDA
AND
CROWD
Today!
Thank
Goodness
for
today!
