Dancing Through Life

作曲 : Stephen Schwartz/Stephen Oremus/Greg Wells/Dominick Amendum/Jack Dolman

I see that, once again

The responsability to corrupt my fellow students

Falls to me

The trouble with schools is they always try to teach the wrong lesson

Believe me, I've been kicked out of enough of them to know

They want you to become less callow, less shallow

But I say, \"Why invite stress in?\"

Stop studying strife

And learn to live \"the unexamined life\"

Dancing through life, skimming the surface

Gliding where turf is smooth

Life's more painless for the brainless

Why think too hard

When it's so soothing dancing through life?

No need to tough it

When you can slough it off as I do

Nothing matters but knowing nothing matters

It's just life, so keep dancing through

Dancing through life, swaying and sweeping

And always keeping cool

Life is fraughtless when you're thoughtless

Those who don't try never look foolish

Dancing through life, mindless and careless

Make sure you're where less trouble is rife

Woes are fleeting, blows are glancing

When you're dancing through life

Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom

We'll meet there later tonight

We can dance till it's light

Find the prettiest girl, give her a whirl

Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom

Come on, follow me

You'll be happy to be there

Dancing through life down at the Ozdust

If only because dust is what we come to

Nothing matters but knowing nothing matters

It's just life

It's just life

So keep dancing through

Galinda, I hope you'll save at dance for me tonight

I'll be right there waiting, all night

That's so kind

But you know what would be even kinder?

See that tragically beautiful girl

The one in the chair

It seems so unfair

We should go on a spree and not she, gee

I know someone would be my hero

If that someone were

To go invite her

Well, maybe I could invite her

Oh, Bick, really? You would do that for me?

I would do anything for you

You're good

I don't know what you mean

I love helping others

Oh, and I happen to be free tonight after all

Now that we've met one another

It's clear we deserve each other

You're perfect

You're perfect

So we're perfect together

Born to be forever dancing through life

You'll never guess what just happened to me

That perfectly adorable Muchking boy just asked me out

He said he was too shy to ask me out first but then Galinda embolded him

Wait, Galinda?

Don't, don't you dare say another word against her

I'm about to have the happiest night of my life

Thanks to Galinda

Finally, for this one night, I'm about to have a fun night

With this Munchkin boy Galinda found for me

And I only wish there were something I could do for her

To repay her

Elphaba, see? We deserve each other

And Galinda helped it come true

We deserve each other, me and Boq

Please, Elphaba, try to understand

I do

Galinda

Nessa and I were talking about you just now and–

Well, we were just talking about you

How you should join us tonight at the Ozdust

And don't tell me you have nothing to wear

'Cause you could wear this

I mean, it goes with everything you own

It's really, uh, sharp, don't you think?

You know, black is this year's pink

You deserve each other, this hat and you

You're both so smart!

You deserve each other, so here

Out of the goodness of my heart!

Listen, Nessa

Yes?

Uh, Nessa, I've got something to confess, a reason why, well

Why I asked you here tonight

And I know it isn't fair

Oh, Boq, I know why

You do?

It's because I'm in this chair

And you felt sorry for me, well, isn't that right?

No, no, no, no, I don't feel sorry for you

You're great! I asked you because, because

Because you are so beautiful!

Oh, Boq, I think you're wonderful!

And we deserve each other, don't you see, this is our chance?

We deserve each other, don't we, Boq?

You know what? Let's dance

Uh, what?

Let's dance

Dancing through life here at the Ozdust

If only because dust is what we come to

And here's a strange thing, your life could end up changing

While you're dancing

Through!
