No One Mourns The Wicked

There's a song early in the play Wicked entitled, No One Mourns The Wicked.

That is so true.  There are truly wicked people in our lives who, when they pass, will be missed by a very few.

Oh sure, someone loved them, once. But then their wickedness came through.

Of course there are those who are forced to love the wicked.  It's... an obligation. You have to love them, right?

No, no one mourns the wicked.  And those wicked people reading this... YOU should look deep deep into your soul and ask, "Will anyone mourn for me?"


No one mourns the Wicked

No one mourns the Wicked.
 No one cries "They won't return!" No one lays a lily on their grave The good man scorns the Wicked! Through their lives, our children learn
What we miss, when we misbehave:

And Goodness knows
The Wicked's lives are lonely
Goodness knows
The Wicked die alone
It just shows when you're Wicked
You're left only
On your own

Yes, Goodness knows
The Wicked's lives are lonely
Goodness knows
The Wicked cry alone
Nothing grows for the Wicked
They reap only
What they sow
