Dancing Through Life

(feat. Norbert Leo Butz, Kristin Chenoweth, Christoper Fitzgerald, Michelle Federer)

[Fiyero]The trouble with schools is

They always try to teach the wrong lesson

Believe me, I've been kicked out

Of enough of them to know

They want you to become less callow

Less shallow

But I say: why invite stress in?

Stop studying strife

And learn to live "the unexamined life"...

Dancing through life

Skimming the surface

Gliding where turf is smooth

Life's more painless

For the brainless

Why think too hard?

When it's so soothing

Dancing through life

No need to tough it

When you can sluff it off as I do

Nothing matters

But knowing nothing matters

It's just life

So keep dancing through...

Dancing through life

Swaying and sweeping

And always keeping cool

Life is faught less

When you're thoughtless

Those who don't try

Never look foolish

Dancing through life

Mindless and careless

Make sure you're where less

Trouble is rife

Woes are fleeting

Blows are glancing

When you're dancing

Through life...

So-what's the most swankified place in town?

[Glinda]That would be the Ozdust Ballroom.

[Fiyero]Sounds perfect.

Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom

We'll meet there later tonight

We can dance till it's light

Find the prettiest girl...

Give her a whirl

Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom

Come on

Follow me

You'll be happy to be there...

[Students]Dancing Through Life

Down at the Ozdust...

[Fiyero]If only because dust

Is what we come to

[Students]Nothing matters

But knowing nothing matters

It's just life...

[Fiyero]So keep dancing through...

[Boq]Miss GLINDA, I hope you'll save at least one dance for me. I'll be right here. Waiting. All night.

[Glinda]Oh-that's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?

See that tragic'ly beautiful girl

The one in the chair

It seems so unfair

We should go on a spree

And not she

Gee-

I know someone would be my hero

If that someone were

To go invite her...

[Boq]Well maybe, I could invite her?

[Glinda]Oh, Bick, really?

You would do that for me?

[Boq]I would do anything for you Miss GLINDA.

[Glinda]So...

[Fiyero]

So I'll be picking you up around eight?

[Glinda]After all-

Now that we've met one another

[Glinda & Fiyero]It's clear we deserve each other

[Glinda]You're perfect...

[Fiyero]You're perfect...

[Glinda & Fiyero]So we're perfect together

Born to be forever...

Dancing Through Life...

[Nessa]Oh, Elphaba-Isn't it wonderful?

Fin'lly for this one night

I'm about to have a fun night

With this Munchkin boy

Glinda found for me

And I only wish there were

Something I could do for her

To repay her

Elphaba, see

We deserve each other

And Glinda helped it come true

We deserve each other

Me and Boq -

please, Elphaba, try to understand.

[Elphaba]I do...

Glinda, listen. Nessa and I were talking about you just now.

[Glinda]And I was just talking about you. I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!

It's really-uh-sharp

Don't you think?

You know black is this year's pink

You deserve each other

This hat and you

You're both so smart

You deserve each other

So here

Out of the goodness of my heart

[Boq]Listen, Nessa

[Nessa]Yes?

[Boq]Uh, Nessa.

I've got something to confess, a

Reason why, well-

Why I asked you here tonight

Now I know it isn't fair...

[Nessa]Oh, Boq. I know why.

[Boq]You do?

[Nessa]It's because I'm in this chair

And you felt sorry for me

Well isn't that right?

[Boq]No! no! It's because..uh..because...

Because you are so beautiful

[Nessa]Oh, Boq! I think you're wonderful!

And we deserve each other

Don't you see, this is our chance?

We deserve each other

Don't we, Boq?

[Boq]You know what?

Let's dance!

[Nessa]What?

[Boq]Let's Dance!

[Students]Dancing Through Life

Down at the Ozdust

If only because dust

Is what we come to

And the strange thing:

You're life could end up changing

While you're dancing

Through!
