[00:00.87]Elphie, now that we're friends, I've decided to make you my new project!
[00:07.53]You really don't have to do that...
[00:09.87]I know, that's what makes me so nice!
[00:15.24]Whenever I see someone less fortunate than I,
[00:20.24]And let's face it, who isn't less fortunate than I?
[00:25.01]My tender heart tends to start to bleed.
[00:29.10]And when someone needs a makeover,
[00:30.77]I simply have to take over!
[00:32.36]I know, I know exactly what they need!
[00:39.03]And even in your case,
[00:42.38]Though it's the toughest case I've yet to face,
[00:46.80]Don't worry, I'm determined to succeed!
[00:52.41]Follow my lead,
[00:55.16]And yes indeed, you will be...

[01:26.71]You'll be good at sports,
[01:28.22]Know the slang you've got to know.
[01:30.82]So let's start,
[01:31.91]'Cause you've got an awfully long way to go!
[01:37.02]Don't be offended by my frank analysis,
[01:39.44]Think of it as personality dialysis,
[01:42.24]Now that I've chosen to become a
[01:44.04]Pal, a sister and advisor,
[01:45.94]There's nobody wiser!
[01:47.40]Not when it comes to...
[01:48.90]POPULAR!
[01:50.60]I know about popular.
[01:53.31]And with an assist from me,
[01:55.11]To be who you'll be,
[01:56.85]Instead of dreary who you were...
[01:58.87]Well, are.
[01:59.41]There's nothing that can stop you,
[02:00.87]From becoming popu-ler... lar...

[02:10.87]We're gonna make you pop-u-lar!
[02:16.03]When i see depressing creatures,
[02:18.74]With unprepossessing features,
[02:21.45]I remind them on their own they have
[02:24.89]To - think - of
[02:26.84]Celebrated heads of state,
[02:29.26]Or specially great communicators!
[02:32.60]Did they have brains or knowledge?
[02:35.42]Don't make me laugh!
[02:37.21]They were POPULAR!
[02:38.72]Please!
[02:39.47]It's all about popular.
[02:42.12]It's not about aptitude,
[02:43.97]It's the way you're viewed,
[02:45.83]So it's very shrewd to be,
[02:48.53]Very very popular
[02:50.53]Like ME!
[02:55.44]Why, Miss Elphaba, look at you. you're beautiful!
[03:03.61]I, I have to go...

[03:08.82]And though you protest,
[03:12.08]Your disinterest,
[03:15.33]I know clandestinely,
[03:21.98]You're gonna grin and bear it!
[03:23.18]Your new found popularity!
[03:26.09]Aah!
