The Wiz Cast - Emerald City Sequence lyrics

[EMERALD CITY GREEN] I, want to be seen, green Wouldn't be caught dead, red Cause if you are seen, green It means you got mean, bread You've got to be seen green To show that your stuff's laid If you're not seen green You better be wearing jade You've, got to be seen, green Don't tell them your cupboard's, bare That you gave up one week's, feed To pay, for your colored, hair Oh, oh, oh [3x] [TRUMPETS SOUND] An announcement from the great and powerful Oz [Spoken: Richard Pryor] I thought it over and green is dead 'Till I change my mind, the color is red [EMERALD CITY GREEN] I wouldn't be seen green Ooo, oo! Oo! Ah! Ah! I, wouldn't be caught, dead And, if I'm caught at all Then catch me in dead, red Ooo! You've, got to be dead, red You've, got to be real, hot So throw away those green, gems And wear rubies, on your yacht You've, got to be dead, red You've, got to have flash and flair And, if you're not seen, red Then you, shouldn't be seen, nowhere Ahhh! [TRUMPETS SOUND] [Spoken: Richard Pryor] How quickly fashion goes down the drain Last week when you all was wearin' pink Already for me red was old The ultimate yellow brick is gold That's the new color, children, hit it [EMERALD CITY GOLD] Golden gold [4x] You got to be seen gold Watch out for the new kind You got to have old gold Like some from a gold mine You got to be wearin' gold The twenty four carat kind And once you've shined it up It should ought to make you blind, ah! You got to be seen in gold To show that you're super slick It helps to pay tips and tolls It's the ultimate yellow brick It's the ultimate, Gold Golden gold [7x] Gold, gold, gold, gold Gold!
