[TOURISTS]
ONE SHORT DAY
IN THE EMERALD CITY...

[GLINDA]
I´ve always wanted to see the Emerald City.

[TOURISTS]
ONE SHORT DAY
IN THE EMERALD CITY...

ONE SHORT DAY
IN THE EMERALD CITY
ONE SHORT DAY
FULL OF SO MUCH TO DO
EV´RY WAY
THAT YOU LOOK IN THIS CITY
THERE´S SOMETHING EXQUISITE
YOU´LL WANT TO VISIT
BEFORE THE DAY´S THROUGH!

[ELPHABA]
THERE ARE BUILDINGS TALL AS QUOXWOOD TREES

[GLINDA]
DRESS SALONS

[ELPHABA]
AND LIBRARIES

[GLINDA]
PALACES!

[ELPHABA]
MUSEUMS!

[BOTH]
A HUNDRED STRONG...
THERE ARE WONDERS LIKE I´VE NEVER SEEN

[GLINDA]
IT´S ALL GRAND

[ELPHABA]
AND IT´S ALL GREEN

[BOTH]
I THINK WE´VE FOUND THE PLACE WHERE WE BELONG!
I WANNA BE
IN THIS HOI POLLOI

[ELPHABA]
SO I´LL BE BACK FOR GOOD SOMEDAY

[GLINDA]
TO MAKE MY LIFE AND MAKE MY WAY

[BOTH]
BUT FOR TODAY, WE´LL WANDER AND ENJOY...

[ALL]
ONE SHORT DAY
IN THE EMERALD CITY
ONE SHORT DAY
TO HAVE ALIFETIME OF FUN
ONE SHORT DAY...

[ELPHABA AND GLINDA]
AND WE´RE WARNING THE CITY...
NOW THAT WE´RE IN HERE
YOU´LL KNOW WE´VE BEEN HERE

[ALL]
BEFORE WE ARE DONE!

They are in front of a Broadway style marquee that reads "WIZ-O-MANIA."....

[WIZOMANIA CHORUS]
WHO´S THE MAGE
WHOSE MAJOR ITINERARY
IS MAKING ALL OZ MERRIER?
WHO´S THE SAGE
WHO SAGELY SAILED IN TO SAVE
OUR POSTERIERS?
WHOSE ENTHUSE FOR HOT AIR BALLOONING
HAS ALL OF OZ HONEYMOONING?
WOO -- OO -- OO...
WIZ-N´T HE WONDERFUL?
(OUR WONDERFUL WIZARD!)

The Wiz-o-maniacs REPEAT the chorus as Elphaba, Glinda and the rest of the audience sing in counterpoint

THEN...

[ALL]
WHAT A WAY
TO BE SEEING THE CITY...

[ELPHABA AND GLINDA]
WHERE SO MANY ROAM TO
WE´LL CALL IT HOME TOO
AND THEN, JUST LIKE NOW
WE CAN SAY:
WE´RE JUST TWO FRIENDS...

[ELPHABA]
TWO GOOD FRIENDS...

[GLINDA]
TWO BEST FRIENDS...

They look at each other, realizing that what Glinda has just said is true.

[ALL]
SHARING ONE WONDERFUL
ONE SHORT...

A Guard pops his head out of the door to the Wizard´s Palace --

[GUARD]
The Wizard will see you now!

[ALL]
DAY!
