Dancing Through Life

[00:01.32] The trouble with schools is
[00:02.45] They always try to teach the wrong lesson
[00:06.83] Believe me, I've been kicked out
[00:09.33] Of enough of them to know
[00:13.65] They want you to become
[00:15.30] Less callow, less shallow
[00:16.80] But I say, "Why invite stress in?"
[00:22.22] Stop studying strife
[00:25.12] And learn to live
[00:27.64] The unexamined life
[00:39.59] Dancing through life
[00:41.88] Skimming the surface
[00:43.27] Gliding where turf is smooth
[00:47.86] Life's more painless
[00:49.50] For the brainless
[00:52.14] Why think too hard
[00:54.05] When it's so soothing
[00:55.87] Dancing through life
[00:57.89] No need to tough it
[01:00.39] When you can slough it off as I do
[01:04.01] Nothing matters
[01:06.69] But knowing nothing matters
[01:08.27] It's just life
[01:10.85] So keep dancing through
[01:17.09] Dancing through life
[01:18.99] Swaying and sweeping
[01:20.94] And always keeping cool
[01:25.30] Life is fraught-less
[01:27.06] When you're thoughtless
[01:29.10] Those who don't try
[01:30.88] Never look foolish
[01:33.40] Dancing through life
[01:35.25] Mindless and careless
[01:37.21] Make sure you're where less
[01:39.22] Trouble is rife
[01:41.39] Woes are fleeting
[01:43.32] Blows are glancing
[01:45.63] When you're dancing
[01:48.90] Through life
[01:57.94] So, what's the most sanctified place in town?
[02:01.36] That would be the Ozdust Ballroom
[02:03.51] Sounds perfect!
[02:06.42] Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
[02:10.23] We'll meet there later tonight
[02:14.66] We can dance till it lights
[02:17.73] Find the prettiest girl
[02:19.96] Give her a whirl
[02:22.90] Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
[02:26.69] Come on follow me
[02:30.25] You'll be happy to be there
[02:34.39] Dancing through life
[02:37.09] Down at the Ozdust
[02:38.35] If only because dust
[02:40.64] Is what we come to
[02:43.04] Nothing matters
[02:44.65] When knowing nothing matters
[02:47.44] It's just
[02:48.69] Life
[02:53.25] So keep dancing through
[02:59.32] Um, M-miss Galinda, I-I hope you'll save at least one dance for me
[03:02.67] I'll be right there waiting all night
[03:04.43] Oh, that's so kind, but you know what would be even kinder?
[03:11.72] See that tragically beautiful girl
[03:14.55] The one in the chair--
[03:17.16] It seems so unfair
[03:19.47] We should go on a spree
[03:21.49] And not she
[03:22.49] Gee-
[03:23.72] I know someone would be my hero
[03:26.43] If that someone were
[03:29.09] To go invite her
[03:33.18] Well, maybe, I could invite her
[03:35.00] Oh, Biq, really?
[03:37.80] You would do that for me?
[03:41.36] I would do anything for you, Miss Galinda
[03:44.63] So
[03:45.47] So I'll be picking you up around eight?
[03:49.13] After all
[03:51.15] Now that we've met one another
[03:54.86] It's clear, we deserve each other
[03:58.89] You're perfect
[03:59.98] You're perfect
[04:00.76] So we're perfect together
[04:03.57] Born to be forever!
[04:06.27] Dancing through life
[04:12.92] Oh Elphaba, isn't it wonderful?
[04:19.21] Finally, for this one night
[04:21.16] I'm about to have a fun night
[04:24.55] With this Munchkin boy
[04:26.19] Galinda found for me
[04:29.96] And I only wish there were
[04:32.29] Something I could do for her
[04:35.92] To repay her
[04:38.29] Elphaba, see
[04:41.53] We deserve each other
[04:43.29] And Galinda helped it come true
[04:47.25] We deserve each other
[04:49.64] Me and Boq
[04:51.18] Please Elphaba, try to understand
[04:53.68] I do
[05:00.15] Galinda, listen, Nessa and I were talking about you just now
[05:01.56] And I was just talking about you!
[05:03.77] I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
[05:07.06] It's really, uh, sharp
[05:09.26] Don't you think?
[05:10.82] You know black
[05:11.90] Is this year's pink
[05:13.54] You deserve each other
[05:15.96] This hat and you
[05:17.45] You're both so smart
[05:20.39] You deserve each other
[05:21.94] So here, out of the goodness
[05:24.23] Of my heart
[06:17.74] Listen, Nessa
[06:20.50] Yes?
[06:21.08] Uh, Nessa
[06:21.97] I've got something to confess, a
[06:24.72] Reason why, well
[06:26.34] Why I asked you here tonight
[06:29.73] Now I know it isn't fair
[06:32.32] Oh, Boq, I know why
[06:34.79] You do?
[06:36.01] It's because I'm in this chair
[06:39.03] And you felt sorry for me
[06:41.68] Well, isn't that right?
[06:44.15] No! No! It's because
[06:44.93] Uh, because
[06:47.43] Because you are so beautiful!
[06:50.48] Oh, Boq!
[06:52.10] I think you're wonderful!
[06:54.20] And we deserve each other
[06:56.44] Don't you see, this is our chance?
[07:01.07] We deserve each other, don't we Boq?
[07:05.06] You know what?
[07:06.80] Let's dance!
[07:09.02] What?!
[07:10.89] Let's dance!
[07:12.98] Down at the Ozdust
[07:15.16] If only because dust
[07:17.04] Is what we come to
[07:18.93] And the strange thing
[07:20.74] Your life could end up changing
[07:22.67] While your dancing
[07:29.35] Through
[07:33.49]
