Dancing Through Life
1. 개요
뮤지컬 위키드 1막의 6번째 곡.
2. 가사
피예로
The trouble with schools is
They always try to teach the wrong lessons
Believe me, I've been kicked out
Of enough of them to know
They want you to become less callow
Less shallow
But I say: why invite stress in?
Stop studying strife
And learn to live the unexamined life
Dancing through life
Skimming the surface
Gliding where turf is smooth
Life's more painless
For the brainless
Why think too hard
When it's so soothing
Dancing through life
No need to tough it
When you can slough it off as I do
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life
So keep dancing through
Dancing through life
Swaying and sweeping
And always keeping cool
Life is fraught-less
When you're thoughtless
Those who don't try
Never look foolish
Dancing through life
Mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting
Blows are glancing
When you're dancing
Through life
So—what's the most swankified place in town?
글린다
That would be the Ozdust Ballroom
피예로
Sounds perfect
Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom
We'll meet there later tonight
We can dance till it's light
Find the prettiest girl
Give 'er a whirl
Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom
Come on—follow me
You'll be happy to be there
피예로&글린다&사람들
Dancing through life
Down at the Ozdust
피예로
If only because dust
Is what we come to
피예로&글린다&사람들
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life
피예로
So keep dancing through

Miss Galinda—
I hope you'll save at least one dance for me
I'll be right there
Waiting
All night
글린다
Oh—that's so kind
But you know what would be even kinder?
See that tragically beautiful girl
The one in the chair
It seems so unfair
We should go on a spree
And not she
--Gee
I know someone would be my hero
If that someone were to go invite her
보크
Well, maybe - I could invite her!
글린다
Oh, Biq, really?
You would do that for me?
보크
I would do anything for you, Miss Galinda
글린다
So...
피예로
So I'll be picking you up around eight?
글린다
After all—
Now that we've met one another
피예로&글린다
It's clear we deserve each other
글린다
You're perfect
피예로
You're perfect
피예로&글린다
So we're perfect together
Born to be forever
Dancing through life

Oh, Elphaba—isn't it wonderful?
Finally, for this one night
I'm about to have a fun night
With this Munchkin boy
Galinda found for me
And I only wish there were
Something I could do for her
To repay her
Elphaba, see?
We deserve each other
And Galinda helped it come true
We deserve each other
Me and Boq
Please, Elphaba try to understand
엘파바
I do
Listen, Galinda—
Nessa and I were talking about you just now
글린다
And I was just talking about you!
I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight!
It's really, uh, sharp, don't you think?
You know black is this year's pink
You deserve each other
This hat and you
You're both so smart
You deserve each other
So here, out of the goodness of my heart
보크
Listen, Nessa
네사로즈
Yes?
보크
Uh—Nessa
I've got something to confess, a
Reason why, well—
Why I asked you here tonight
Now I know it isn't fair
네사로즈
Oh, Boq, I know why
보크
You do?
네사로즈
It's because I'm in this chair
And you felt sorry for me
Well—isn't that right?
보크
No! No! It's because, because, uh
Because you are so beautiful!
네사로즈
Oh, Boq, I think you're wonderful!
And we deserve each other
Don't you see, this is our chance?
We deserve each other
Don't we, Boq?
보크
You know what?
Let's dance
네사로즈
What?!
보크
Let's dance!

Dancing through life
Down at the Ozdust
If only because dust
Is what we come to!
And the strange thing
Your life could end up changing
While you're dancing
Through!
