"Something Bad"

(Doctor dillamond)
[Spoken]
Oh, Miss Elphaba - The things one hears these days. Dreadful things...
[Sung]
I've heard of an Ox
A professor from Quox
No longer permitted to teach
Who has lost all powers of speech
And an Owl in Munchkin Rock
A vicar with a thriving flock
Forbidden to preach
Now he can only screech!
Only rumors - but still -
Enough to give pause
To anyone with paws
Something bad is happening in Oz...

(Elphaba)
Something bad? Happening in Oz?

(Dillamond)
Under the surface
Behind the scenes
Something baaaaaaad...

[Spoken]
Sorry. "Bad"

(ELPHABA (spoken))
Doctor Dillamond - If something bad is happening
To the Animals, someone's got to tell the Wizard.
That's why we have a Wizard.
[Sung]
So nothing bad...

(Dillamond)
[Spoken]
I hope you're right...

(BOTH)
Nothing all that bad...

(Dillamond)
Nothing truly baaaaaad...
[Spoken]
Sorry... "Bad"...

(Elphaba)
It couldn't happen here
In Oz...
