Versuri Idina Menzel – No Good Deed lyrics

[ELPHABA]
Fiyero!

Eleka nahmen nahmen, ah tum ah tum, eleka nahmen
Eleka nahmen nahmen, ah tum ah tum, eleka nahmen

Let his flesh not be torn, let his blood leave no stain
Though they beat him, let him feel no pain
Let his bones never break, and however they try
To destroy him, let him never die
Let him never die

Eleka nahmen nahmen, ah tum ah tum, eleka nahmen
Eleka nahmen nahmen, ah tum ah tum, eleka, eleka, ugh!

What good is this chanting? I don’t even know what I’m reading
I don’t even know what trick I ought to try
Fiyero, where are you? Already dead or bleeding?
One more disaster I can add to my
Generous supply?

No good deed goes unpunished
No act of charity goes unresented
No good deed goes unpunished
That’s my new creed
My road of good intentions led where such roads always lead
No good deed
Goes unpunished

Nessa
Doctor Dillamond
Fiyero
Fiyero!

One question haunts and hurts too much, too much to mention
Was I really seeking good or just seeking attention?
Is that all good deeds are when looked at with an ice-cold eye?
If that’s all good deeds are, maybe that’s the reason why

No good deed goes unpunished
All helpful urges should be circumvented
No good deed goes unpunished
Sure, I meant well, well, look at what well-meant did

Alright, enough, so be it, so be it then

Let all Oz be agreed I’m Wicked through and through
Since I can not succeed, Fiyero, saving you
I promise no good deed will I attempt to do again, ever again
No good deed will I do again
