Lyrics

[GALINDA, spoken] Dearest, darlingest Momsie and Popsicle [ELPHABA, spoken] My dear father [GALINDA & ELPHABA] There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz [ELPHABA] But of course, I'll care for Nessa [GALINDA] But of course, I'll rise above it [GALINDA & ELPHABA] For I know that's how you'd want me to respond [GALINDA & ELPHABA, spoken] Yes [GALINDA & ELPHABA] There's been some confusion for, you see, my roommate is [GALINDA] Unusually and exceedingly peculiar And altogether quite impossible to describe [ELPHABA, spoken] Blonde [GALINDA] What is this feeling, so sudden and new? [ELPHABA] I felt the moment I laid eyes on you [GALINDA] My pulsе is rushing [ELPHABA] My head is reeling [GALINDA, spoken] Yeah, well, my facе is flushing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] What is this feeling Fervid as a flame? Does it have a name? Yes Loathing Unadulterated loathing [GALINDA] For your face [ELPHABA] Your voice [GALINDA] Your clothing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] Let's just say I loathe it all Every little trait, however small Makes my very flesh begin to crawl With simple, utter loathing There's a strange exhilaration In such total detestation It's so pure, so strong Though I do admit, it came on fast Still, I do believe that it can last And I will be loathing Loathing you my whole life long [SHIZ STUDENTS] Dear Galinda, you are just too good How do you stand it? I don't think I could She's a terror, she's a tartar, we don't mean to show a bias But, Galinda, you're a martyr [GALINDA] Well, these things are sent to try us [SHIZ STUDENTS] Poor Galinda, forced to reside With someone so disgusticified We just want to tell you, we're all on your side We share your loathing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] What is this feeling, so sudden and new? [SHIZ STUDENTS] Unadulterated loathing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] I felt the moment I laid eyes on you [SHIZ STUDENTS] For her face, her voice, her clothing [GALINDA & ELPHABA, SHIZ STUDENTS] My pulse is rushing, my head is reeling (Let's just say) [SHIZ STUDENTS] We loathe it all [GALINDA & ELPHABA] Oh, what is this feeling? [SHIZ STUDENTS] Every little trait, however small [GALINDA & ELPHABA] Does it have a name? [SHIZ STUDENTS] Makes our very flesh begin to crawl [GALINDA & ELPHABA] Yes [ALL] Ah [GALINDA & ELPHABA] Loathing [SHIZ STUDENTS] Loathing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] There's a strange exhilaration [SHIZ STUDENTS] Loathing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] In such total detestation [SHIZ STUDENTS] Loathing [GALINDA & ELPHABA] It's so pure, so strong [SHIZ STUDENTS] So strong [GALINDA & ELPHABA] Though I do admit, it came on fast Still, I do believe that it can last [GALINDA & ELPHABA, ALL, SHIZ STUDENTS] And I will be loathing for forever Loathing truly deeply Loathing you (Loathing you) [GALINDA & ELPHABA] My whole life long [SHIZ STUDENTS] Loathing Unadulterated loathing [ELPHABA, spoken] Boo! [GALINDA, spoken] Ah! [ELPHABA laughs.]
