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 a son
 Or daughter
 So Elphaba, I'd like to raise you high
 'Cuz I think everyone deserves
 The chance to fly
 And helping you with your ascent
 Allows me to feel so parental
 For I am a sentimental man
