A Sentimental Man

[ELPHABA, spoken]

My heart's desire is for you to help the animals

[WIZARD, spoken]

I had a feeling you were gonna say that

And I agree wholeheartedly

[ELPHABA, spoken]

That makes me so happy

[WIZARD, spoken]

Well, that's what I love best

Makin' people happy

[WIZARD]

I am a sentimental man

Who always longed to be a father

That's why I do the best I can

To treat each citizen of Oz as son or daughter

So, Elphaba, I'd like to raise you high

'Cause I think everyone deserves the chance to fly

And helping you with your ascent allows me to feel so

Parеntal

For I am

A sentimental man
