[00:00.400]Fiyero
[00:00.500]The trouble with schools is
[00:02.460]They always try to teach the wrong lesson
[00:07.600]Believe me, I've been kicked out
[00:09.660]Of enough of them to know
[00:14.210]They want you to become less callow
[00:15.930]Less shallow
[00:18.110]But I say: why invite stress in?
[00:22.160]Stop studying strife
[00:25.940]And learn to live "the unexamined life"...
[00:39.790]Dancing through life
[00:41.440]Skimming the surface
[00:43.640]Gliding where turf is smooth
[00:48.200]Life's more painless
[00:50.150]For the brainless
[00:52.030]Why think too hard?
[00:53.830]When it's so soothing
[00:56.020]Dancing through life
[00:57.930]No need to tough it
[01:00.110]When you can sluff it off as I do
[01:04.170]Nothing matters
[01:06.230]But knowing nothing matters
[01:08.860]It's just life
[01:10.970]So keep dancing through...
[01:16.750]Dancing through life
[01:18.630]Swaying and sweeping
[01:20.920]And always keeping cool
[01:25.360]Life is fraught less
[01:27.340]When you're thoughtless
[01:29.190]Those who don't try
[01:31.560]Never look foolish
[01:33.170]Dancing through life
[01:35.090]Mindless and careless
[01:37.230]Make sure you're where less
[01:39.210]Trouble is rife
[01:41.360]Woes are fleeting
[01:43.310]Blows are glancing
[01:45.480]When you're dancing
[01:48.970]Through life...
[01:58.420]So—what's the most swankified place in town?
[02:01.600]Galinda
[02:01.990]That would be the Ozdust Ballroom.
[02:04.660]Sounds perfect.

[02:41.150]Is what we come to
[02:42.400]Students
[02:42.880]Nothing matters
[02:44.740]But knowing nothing matters
[02:47.410]It's just life...
[02:53.400]Fiyero
[02:53.630]So keep dancing through...
[02:58.700]Boq
[02:59.380]Miss Galinda—I hope you'll save at least one dance for me. I'll be right here. Waiting. All night.
[03:05.000]Galinda
[03:05.520]Oh—that's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?
[03:11.550]See that tragic'ly beautiful girl
[03:14.840]The one in the chair
[03:17.640]Iit seems so unfair
[03:19.600]We should go on a spree
[03:22.170]And not she
[03:23.700]Gee—
[03:23.980]I know someone would be my hero
[03:26.850]If that someone were
[03:29.580]To go invite her...
[03:33.400]Boq
[03:33.630]Well maybe, I could invite her?
[03:35.400]Galinda
[03:35.850]Oh, Bick, really?
[03:37.930]You would do that for me?
[03:40.700]Boq
[03:41.220]I would do anything for you Miss Galinda.
[03:44.400]Galinda
[03:44.740]So...
[03:45.900]Fiyero
[03:46.460]So I'll be picking youup around eight?
[03:49.000]Galinda

[04:26.580]Galinda found for me
[04:29.520]And I only wish there were
[04:32.370]Something I could do for her
[04:35.590]To repay her
[04:38.640]Elphaba, see
[04:41.600]We deserve each other
[04:43.390]And Galinda helped it come true
[04:47.650]We deserve each other

[05:00.280]Galinda, listen. Nessa and I were talking about you just now.
[05:02.500]Galinda
[05:03.070]And I was just talking about you. I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
[05:08.010]It's really—uh—sharp

[05:14.100]You deserve each other

[06:20.340]Yes?
[06:20.700]Boq
[06:21.340]Uh, Nessa.
[06:22.520]I've got something to confess, a
[06:24.880]Reason why, well—
[06:26.280]Why I asked you here tonight
[06:30.050]Now I know it isn't fair...
[06:32.500]Nessarose
[06:32.980]Oh, Boq. I know why.
[06:35.400]Boq
[06:35.630]You do?
[06:36.600]Nessarose
[06:36.980]It's because I'm in this chair
[06:39.380]And you felt sorry for me
[06:42.480]Well—isn't that right?
[06:43.000]Boq
[06:43.520]No! no! It's because...because...
[06:46.190]Because you are so beautiful
[06:51.000]Nessarose

[07:23.200]While you're dancing

[07:35.400]

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 fraught 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...
