Lyrics
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

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
All right, enough, so be it
So be it then
Let all of Oz be agreed
I'm wicked through and through
And since I can't succeed, Fiyero, saving you
I promise no good deed will I attempt to do again
Ever again
No good deed will I do
Again!
