The Wizard’s Departure
Tim Rice, E. Y. Harburg
[WIZARD]
You went to see the wizard
The wonderful wizard of Oz
Because, because, because, because, because
Because of the wonderful thing he was...
But you got what you deserve!
A brain
A heart
The nerve!
[INSTRUMENTAL]
As Dorothy and I say our bittersweet goodbye
It's my pleasure to hand over tuity
Who have courage, brains, and heart!
What a trio!
What a start!
Let's hear it for the brand new oz regime!
That's it!
And obey them as you would me!
And that's it!
[DOROTHY]
Toto!
Oh, he's seen a cat!
Toto! Toto!
It's only a cat!
Don't go away!
Toto come back!
[WIZARD]
Oh, off we go!
No! Don't!
Hold on to those lines!
Oh ho ho!
That cat ruined my exit!
[DOROTHY]
Come back!
[WIZARD]
Oh ho ho!
Goodbye, folks!
