Thank Goodness / I Couldn’t Be Happier

Oh what a celebration we'll have today

Thank goodness

Let's have a celebration the "Glinda" way

Thank goodness

Finally a day that's totally wicked-witch-free

We couldn't be happier thank goodness

Thank goodness for you Glinda

And your handsome swain Prince Fiyero newly appointed captain of the Gale Force

Tell us Captain how does it feel being engaged?

We're engaged?

Surprised?

Yes

Good we hoped you'd be the Wizard and I

We couldn't be happier right dear?

Couldn't be happier right here

Look what we've got a fairy-tale plot

Our very own happy ending

Where we couldn't be happier true dear?

Couldn't be happier

And we're happy to share our ending vicariously with all of you

He couldn't look handsomer

I couldn't feel humbler

We couldn't be happier

Because happy is what happens when all your dreams come true

And Glinda dear we are happy for you

As press secretary I've striven to ensure that all of Oz knows the story of your braverism

In the face of the terrifying Wicked Witch of the West

I hear she has an extra eye that always remains awake

I hear that she can shed her skin as easily as a snake

I hear some rebel animals are giving her food and shelter

I hear her soul is so unclean pure water can melt her

Melt her

Please somebody go and melt her

I can't just stand there grinning pretending to go along with all this

Fiyero

Thanks plenty dearest

He's um he's gone to fetch me a refreshment

He's so thoughtful that way

That's why I couldn't be happier

No I couldn't be happier

Though it is I admit the tiniest bit

Unlike I anticipated

But I couldn't be happier

Simply couldn't be happier

Well not simply 'cause getting your dreams it's strange but it seems

A little well complicated

There's a kind of a sort of cost

There's a couple of things get lost

There are bridges you cross you didn't know you crossed until you've crossed

And if that joy that thrill

Doesn't thrill like you think it will

Still with this perfect finale the cheers and the ballyhoo

Who wouldn't be happier?

So I couldn't be happier

Because happy is what happens when all your dreams come true

Well isn't it?

Happy is what happens when your dreams come true

We love you Glinda if we may be so frank

Thank goodness

For all this joy we know who we've got to thank

Thank goodness

That means the Wizard Glinda

And fiancé

They couldn't be goodlier

She couldn't be lovelier

We couldn't be luckier

I couldn't be happier

Thank goodness

Thank goodness

Today

Thank goodness for today

Thank goodness for today
