Wicked Wicked Witch of the East Lyrics

NESSAROSE
And why should I help you?
You fly around Oz, trying to rescue animals you've never even met
And not once have you ever thought to use your powers to rescue me...

All of my life, I've depended on you, how do you think that feels?
All of my life, I've depended on you and this hideous chair with wheels
Scrounging for scraps of pity to pick up and longing to kick up my heels

ELPHABA
Nessa, listen, there isn't a spell for everything
The power is mysterious, it's not like, like coddling up a pair of- wait...

NESSAROSE
What are you doing? What is that?
My shoes, it feels like they're on fire
What have you done to my shoes?
No, don't, no... don't help me...

ELPHABA
Nessa, at last, I've done what long ago I should
And finally from these powers something good, finally something good

NESSAROSE
Boq, Boq, come quickly

ELPHABA
Boq?

NESSAROSE
Boq, come here at once

ELPHABA
No, Nessa, listen, nobody can know I'm here

BOQ
Yes, what is it, Madame?

ELPHABA
Boq...

BOQ
You, you stay back

ELPHABA
Boq, it's just me, I'm not going to hurt you

BOQ
No, you're lying, that's all you ever do
You and your sister, she's as Wicked as you are

NESSAROSE
Boq!

ELPHABA
What are you talking about?

BOQ
I'm talking about my life, the little that's left of it
I'm not free to leave Munchkinland anymore, none of us are
Ever since she took power, she's been stripping the Munchkins
Of our rights, and we didn't have that many to begin with
And do you know why?

NESSAROSE
To keep you here with me
But none of that matters anymore, look

BOQ
You did this for her?

NESSAROSE
For both of us

BOQ
Nessa, this changes everything

NESSAROSE
I know

BOQ
Oh, Nessa

NESSAROSE
What?

BOQ
Nessa, surely now I'll matter less to you
And you won't mind my leaving here tonight

NESSAROSE
Leaving?

BOQ
Yes, that ball that's being staged
Announcing Glinda is engaged

NESSAROSE
Glinda?

BOQ
Yes, Nessa, that's right
And I've got to go appeal to her
Express the way I feel to her
Nessa, I lost my heart to Glinda from the moment
I first saw her, you know that

NESSAROSE
Lost your heart? Well, we'll see about that

ELPHABA
Nessa, let him go

NESSAROSE
Did you think I'd let you leave me here flat?

BOQ
No, don't come any closer

NESSAROSE
You're going to lose your heart to me, I tell you
If I have to, if I have to, magic spell you
Ah tum tah tae...

ELPHABA
Nessa, that's enough

BOQ
What is she doing?

ELPHABA
No, Nessa, you're p___ouncing the words all wrong, Nessa

NESSAROSE
Boq, what is it?

BOQ
It's my heart, it feels like it's shrinking

NESSAROSE
Elphaba, do something

ELPHABA
I can't, you can't reverse a spell once it's been cast

NESSAROSE
So what are we gonna do? This is all your fault
If you hadn't shown me that horrendible book...

ELPHABA
I have to find another spell, it's the only thing that might work

NESSAROSE
Save him, please

Just save him, my poor Boq, my sweet, my brave
Don't leave me 'til my sorry life has ceased
All alone and loveless here, just the girl in the mirror
Just her and me, the Wicked Witch of the East
We deserve each other

ELPHABA
He's sleeping

NESSAROSE
Well, what about his heart?

ELPHABA
It's all right, he won't need one now
I have to go, I have business to attend to in the Emerald City
Nessa, I have done everything I could for you
But it has never been enough and nothing ever will be

NESSAROSE
Elphaba, wait, Elphaba

BOQ
Where am I, what happened?

NESSAROSE
Nothing, you just fell asleep, and-

BOQ
What is it, what's wrong?

NESSAROSE
No, it wasn't me, it was her, I tried to stop her

BOQ
No, no, no

NESSAROSE
Boq, please listen, it was Elphaba, Boq, it was Elphaba
