Dearest, darlingest Momsie and Popsicle
My dear father
There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz
But of course I'll care for Nessa
But of course I'll rise above it
For I know that's how you'd want me to respond
Yes, there's been some confusion, for you see, my roommate is
Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Blonde
What is this feeling so sudden and new?
I felt the moment I laid eyes on you?
My pulse is rushing
My head is reeling
Yeah, well, my face is flushing
What is this feeling, fervid as a flame?
Does it have a name?
Yes! Loathing
Unadulterated loathing
For your face, your clothing
Your voice
Let's just say I loathe it all!
Every little trait, however small
Makes my very flesh begin to crawl
With simple utter loathing
There's a strange exhilaration
In such total detestation
It's so pure! So strong!
Though I do admit it came on fast
Still, I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing, loathing you my whole life long!
Dear Galinda, you are just too good!
How do you stand it? I don't think I could!
She's a terror! She's a Tartar!
We don't mean to show a bias, but Galinda, you're a martyr!
Well, these things are sent to try us!
Poor Galinda, forced to reside
With someone so disgustickified
We just want to tell you, we're all on your side!
We share your loathing!
What is this feeling so sudden and new?
Unadulterated loathing
I felt the moment I laid eyes on you?
For her face, her voice, her clothing
My pulse is rushing, my head is reeling
Let's just say we loath it all!
Oh, what is this feeling?
Every little trait, however small
Does it have a name? Yes!
Makes my very flesh begin to crawl
Loathing!
Loathing!
There's a strange exhilaration
Loathing!
In such total detestation
Loathing!
It's so pure! So strong!
So strong!
Though I do admit it came on fast
Still, I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing for forever, loathing, truly deeply
Loathing, loathing
Loathing you (Loathing, loathing you)
My whole life long!
Loathing! Unadulterated loathing!
