Pasek & Paul
Nothing Short of Wonderful
[ROSE, spoken]
Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh...

(sung)
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, holy cow, what to wear?
And your hair! What a mess
Pick a dress, oh my gosh
Are you mourning a death? Take a breath
What a look, I mistook you for butternut squash
Oh my gosh

Keep it soft, keep it bright, be a girl
Something pink, don’t you think?
Just a touch, not too much, he likes you
Just be you, he won’t care what you wear
I don't know, should I go with the pink or the blue?
What to do

For someone who is nothing short of wonderful?
Nothing short of wonderful

Just a girl, just a guy, but it’s him, and it’s you
And it’s true what you’ve heard
Like a bird how you lift
And your chest feels a pull
Like you’re full of a joy
‘Cause a boy interrupted your shift
Like something nothing short of wonderful
Oh, it was nothing short of wonderful

What if, when we’re dancing
I’m clumsy, our feet collide?
What if, when we’re dancing
He dips me, our lips meet and we glide
Across the room?

And it feels nothing short of wonderful?
Nothing short of wonderful

Hurry up, he won’t wait, he can’t wait half the night
Either white or maroon
You’re a loon, you’re a mess
And you think you might bust
But you’ve just got to choose
Pick the shoes, and decide on the dress

And you’ll be nothing short of wonderful
Nothing short of wonderful

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, on a date, on a date
But you can’t make him wait
No you can’t make him late
And your room is in heaps and you can’t see the floor
But you finally get what a girdle is for
(spoken)
Oh my gosh...

(sung)
Oh my gosh!
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my–
Oh my gosh!
