What Is This Feeling? - From "Wicked" Original Broadway Cast Recording/2003

Dearest, darlingest Momsie and Popsicle

My dear father

There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz

But of course, I'll care for Nessa

But of course, I'll rise above it

For I know that's how you'd want me to respond, yes
There's been some confusion for you see my roomate is

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar
altogether quite impossible to describe

Blonde

What is this feeling, so sudden, and new?

I felt the moment I laid eyes on you

My pulse is rushing

My head is reeling

My face is flushing

What is this feeling?
Fervid as a flame, does it have a name?
Yes. Loathing
Unadulterated loathing

For your face

Your voice

Your clothing

Let's just say—I loathe it all
Every 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, so 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

Dear Glinda, 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 Glinda, you're a martyr

Well, these things are sent to try us

Poor Glinda, forced to reside
With someone so disgusticified
We just want to tell you, we're all on your side
We share your

What is this feeling Loathing
So sudden and new? Unadulterated loathing
I felt the moment.For her face, her voice
I laid eyes on you.Her clothing
My pulse is rushing Let's just say
My head is reeling We loathe it all!
Oh, what is this feeling?! Every little trait, however small
Does it have a name? Makes our very flesh
Yes, Begin to crawl
Ahhh Ahhh
Loathing! Loathing
There's a strange exhilaration Loathing
In such total detestation Loathing
It's so pure, so strong! So strong

Though I do admit, it came on fast
Still I do believe that it can last

And I will be loathing! Loathing
For forever, loathing Loathing
Truly deeply, loathing you Loathing you
My whole life long! Loathing, unadulterated loathing

BOO

Ahhh
