What Is This Feeling? Songtext

von Kristin Chenoweth

Dearest, darling-est 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
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 voice
Your clothing

Let's just say... I loathe it all!
Ev'ry 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 disgusticified
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 (Let's just say)
My head is reeling (We loathe it all!)
Oh, what is this feeling? (Ev'ry little trait, however small)
Does it have a name? (Makes our very flesh begin to crawl)
Yes, ah...

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...)
Loathing, truly, deeply (Loathing...)
Loathing you (Loathing you...)
My whole life long!
(Loathing, unadulterated loathing)
