Galinda: What is this feeling? So sudden and new? Elphaba: I felt it the moment I laid eyes on you Galinda: My pulse [bad word] Elphaba: My head is reeling Galinda: My face is flushing Both: 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 Both: Let's just say – I loathe it all Ev'ry 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 and 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! 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! Students: Poor Galinda, forced to reside With someone so disgusticified We all just want to tell you We're all on your side! We share your All: Loathing! Galinda, Elphaba, and All: There's a strange exhilaration Loathing In such total detestation Loathing So pure, so strong Loathing Students: So strong!
