The Wizard:
I never asked for this,
Or planned it in advance.
I was merely blown here
By the winds of chance.
I never saw myself
As a Solomon or Socrates
I knew who I was--
One of your dime a dozen
Mediocrities.

Then suddenly I'm here
Respected, worshipped, even
Just because the folks in Oz
Needed someone to believe in.
Does it surprise you
I got hooked, and all too soon?
What can I say?
I got carried away
And not just by balloon.

Wonderful--
They called me Wonderful,
So I said wonderful, if you insist.
I will be Wonderful,
And they said wonderful.
Believe me, it's hard to resist,
'Cause it feels wonderful.
They think I'm wonderful.
Hey, look who's wonderful--
This corn-fed hick.
Who said it might be keen
To build a town of green,
And a wonderful road
Of yellow brick!

[Spoken]
See, I never had a family of my own. So, I guess I just
wanted to give the citizens of Oz everything.

Elphaba: [Spoken]
So you lied to them.

The Wizard: [Spoken]
Elphaba, where I'm from, we believe all sorts of things
that aren't true. We call it history.

[Sung]
A man's called a traitor, or liberator.
A rich man's a thief, or philanthropist.
Is one a crusader, or ruthless invader?
It's all in which label
Is able to persist.
There are precious few at ease
With moral ambiguities,
So we act as though they don't exist.

They call me Wonderful,
So I am wonderful.
In fact, it's so much who I am,
It's part of my name.
And with my help,
You can be the same.
At long, long last receive your due,
Long overdue,
Elphaba, the most celebrated
Are the rehabilitated.
There'll be such a whoop-de-doo!
A celebration throughout Oz
That's all to do with you!

Wonderful--
They'll call you
Wonderful!

Elphaba:
It does sound wonderful!

The Wizard:
Trust me, it's fun!

Both:
When you are wonderful,
It would be wonderful!
Wonderful, wonderful--

The Wizard:
One!
Two!
And--


Mirror lyrics:

And--
Two!
One!
The Wizard:

Wonderful, wonderful--
It would be wonderful!
When you are wonderful,
Both:
