GALINDA<br>
(spoken) Elphie - now that we're friends, I've decided to<br>
make you my new project.<br>
<br>
ELPHABA<br>
(spoken) You really don't have to do that<br>
<br>
GALINDA<br>
(spoken) I know. That's what makes me so nice!<br>
<br>
(sung)<br>
Whenever I see someone less fortunate than I<br>
And let's face it - who isn't less fortunate than I?<br>
My tender heart tends to start to bleed<br>
<br>
And when someone needs a makeover<br>
I simply have to take over<br>
I know, I know exactly what they need<br>
And even in your case<br>
Though it's the toughest case I've yet to face<br>
Don't worry, I'm determined to succeed<br>
Follow my lead, and yes, indeed <br>
You will be<br>
<br>
Popular! You're gonna be popular!<br>
I'll teach you the proper poise<br>
When you talk to boys<br>
Little ways to flirt and flounce<br>
Ooh! I'll show you what shoes to wear<br>
How to fix your hair<br>
Everything that really counts<br>
<br>
To be popular<br>
I'll help you be popular!<br>
You'll hang with the right cohorts<br>
You'll be good at sports<br>
Know the slang you've got to know<br>
So let's start 'cause you've got an awfully long way to go<br>
<br>
Don't be offended by my frank analysis<br>
Think of it as personality dialysis<br>
Now that I've chosen to be come a pal<br>
A sister and adviser, there's nobody wiser<br>
Not when it comes to popular -<br>
I know about popular<br>
And with an assist from me<br>
To be who you'll be<br>
Instead of dreary who you were, well, are<br>
There's nothing that can stop you<br>
From becoming popu-ler. LAR!<br>
La la la la ... We're gonna make you popular<br>
<br>
When I see depressing creatures<br>
With unprepossessing features<br>
I remind them on their own behalf<br>
To think of celebrated heads of state<br>
Or specially great communicators<br>
Did they have brains or knowledge?<br>
Don't make me laugh!<br>
<br>
They were popular! Please -<br>
It's all about popular!<br>
It's not about aptitude<br>
It's the way you're viewed<br>
So it's very shrewd to be<br>
Very very popular like me!<br>
<br>
(spoken) Why, Miss Elphaba, look at you. You're beautiful.<br>
<br>
ELPHABA(spoken) I - I have to go.<br>
<br>
GALINDA<br>
(spoken) You're welcome!<br>
<br>
(sung)<br>
And though you protest your disinterest<br>
I know clandestinely<br>
You're gonna grin and bear it<br>
Your new found popularity<br>
<br>
La la la la ... You'll be popular<br>
Just not as quite as popular as me!<br>
<br>
