Bad Situation lyrics

[GALINDA]
What is this place? It's a disaster
The color scheme's a total blaster
And look at you, no offense, of course
I've got to make the best of a bad situation

[ELPHABA]
Spare me such selfish frustration
Your glamour act's a poor sensation
We're stuck together, it's far from ideal
But I've got to make the best of a bad situation

[GALINDA]
It's tragic, simply tragic

[ELPHABA]
It's magic, simply magic
My patience won't go to waste

[GALINDA]
The room is drab, the lighting's dim
And your personality's quite grim

[ELPHABA]
For some reason, you're so entitled
Your squeal, it turns me suicidal
[GALINDA & ELPHABA]
But here we are, like smoke and fire
Forced together by fate's cruel desire
It's not what I'd call a dream collaboration
But I've got to make the best of a bad situation

[GALINDA]
Perhaps, if you stood just right there
Away from me and out of my hair

[ELPHABA]
And if you'd stop whining, only for a day
I might not mind it much, I'd say

[GALINDA]
Such opposites, like night and day
You're green and grim in shades of grey

[ELPHABA]
Your heart is shallow, your hair, it shines
But the substance here, well, it's all mine

[GALINDA & ELPHABA]
Although fate forced us in this space
I never will not loathe your face
But in the end, to my consternation
I've got to make the best of a bad situation
[GALINDA]
Let's some rules you must behave
No touching my shoes or stuff I save

[ELPHABA]
No problem here, keep perfumes contained
I'd rather not be chemically pained

[GALINDA & ELPHABA]
Like give and take, we're unalike
But we'll settle with a compromise
It's misery, but perhaps salvation
If we make the best of a bad situation

[GALINDA]
Maybe you're not the worst roommate

[ELPHABA]
And you aren't totally beyond debate

[GALINDA & ELPHABA]
And I'll survive, despite frustration
If I make the best of a bad situation
