Ext. The Badlands-Morning

FIYERO

Are you sure you want to do this?

ELPHABA

I'm positive. I can't just sit back and let Oz fall into the hands of Morrible!

Don't Rain on My Parade

ELPHABA

Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter

Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter

Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

Don't tell me not to fly, I've simply got to

If someone takes a spill, it's me and not you

Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade

I'll march my band out

I'll beat my drum

And if I'm fanned out

Your turn at bat, sir

At least I didn't fake it

Hat, sir

I guess I didn't make it

But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection

Or freckle on the nose of life's complexion

The cinder or the shiny apple of it's eye

I gotta fly once, I gotta try once

Only can die once, right sir?

Ooh, life is juicy, juicy and you see

I gotta have my bite sir

Get ready for me love, cause I'm a 'comer

I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer

Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

I'm gonna live and live now

Get what I want, I know how

One roll for the whole shebang

One throw that bell will go clang

Eye on the target and wham

One shot, one gun shot and bam!

I'll march my band out

I'll beat my drum

And if I'm fanned out

Your turn at bat, sir

At least I didn't fake it

Hat, sir

I guess I didn't make it

Get ready for me love, cause I'm a 'comer

I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer

Nobody, no nobody, is gonna rain on my parade!

FIYERO

I just wish you'd let me come with you.

ELPHABA

Who ever said you aren't coming?

FIYERO

Wait, I get to come? Good!

ELPHABA

Remind me why I told you you're only a little stupid?

FIYERO

Well, not everyone can be as smart as you.

ELPHABA

(pleased)

Oh, stop it. We don't have time to lose! Let's go!

(they vanish and reappear in GLINDA's chambers)
