"The Wicked Witch Of The East" lyrics - STEPHEN SCHWARTZ

Nessarose
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
I've done what long ago I should
And finally from these powers something good
Finally, something good

Boq
Nessa

Nessaroes
Yes?

Boq
Uh - 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 go to go appeal to her
Express the way I feel to her

Nessarose
Did you think I'd let you leave me here flat?
You're going to lose your heart to me, I tell you
If I have to, I have to magic-spell you

Save him, please, just save him
My poor Boq, my sweet, my brave him
Don't leave me till my sorry life has ceased
Alone and loveless here, just the girl in the mirror
Just her and me, Wicked Witch of the East, we deserve each other.
