Wicked really is a good book, I truely recommend it. And, yes that is my dad playing the guitar. You gotta a problem with that???
Lyrics:
This is the story of a girl born green
this is the story of a girl who made the scene
one had the voice to change the world
one had the face, the talk, and the rose and the curl
this is the tale of the lives they had
one could move mountains the other drove men mad
this is the friendship both of them shared
the people looked up to one, but the other made them scared
and then they learned to fly up to where dreams came true
and then they reached the sky differentely but made it through
the only difference is the world listened to the other
my only inference is they liked the one of a normal color
and in the distance is a world that could be pure
i read this book and my heart was touched by the work of Gregory Maguire (cue for corny smile)
