Chicago Soundtrack Miscellaneous I Can't Do It Alone [VELMA (to Roxie)] My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop My sister and I were headed straight fo the top My sister and I earned a thou a week at least Oh, sure! But my sistr is now, unfortunately, deceased Oh, I know it's sad, of course But a fact is still a fact And now all that remains Is the remains Of a perfect double act! [spoken] Roxie, do you know you are exactly the same size as my sister? Oh, you would fit in her wardrobe perfectly. Look, why don't I just show you some of the act, huh? Watch this. [VELMA dances] Now you have to imagine this with two people. It's swell with two people. First I'd...(drums!) Then she'd...(saxophone!) Then we'd...(together!) But I can't do it alone! Then she'd... Then I'd... Then we'... But I can't do it alone! She'd say,"What's your sister like?" I'd say, "Men," Yuk, Yuk, yuk She'd say, "you're the cat's meow" Then we'd wow the crowd again When she'd go... I'd go... We'd go... And then those ding-dong daddies started to roar Whistled, stomped and stamped on the floor Yelling, sreaming, begging for more. [spoken] And we'd say, "O.K. fellas, keep your socks up. you ain't seen nothin' yet!" [VELMA dances] But I simply cannot do it alone! Well? What did ya' think? Come on, you can say. [ROXIE gives her a raspberry] O.K., O.K. The first part can always be rewritten. But the second part was really nifty. Watch this. Then she'd...(See, get it, right?) Then I'd...(Then I'd kick really high...) Then we'd... But I can't do it alone! She'd say, "What state's Chicago in?" I'd say, "ILL!" Did ya' get that? She'd say, "Turn your motor off" I can hear 'em cheerin' still When she'd go... I'd go... We'd go...(Sideways!) And then those two-bit Johnnies did it up brown To cheer the best attraction in town They nearly tore the balcony down [spoken] And we'd say. "O.K. fellas, O.K., we're goin' home, but here's a few more partin' shots!" And this... this we did in perfect unison. [VELMA dances] Now, you've seen me goin' through it It may seem there's nothin' to it But I simply cannot do it Alone! [ROXIE turns her down] Like the deserted bride on her wedding night All alone and shaking with fright With her brand new hubby nowhere in sight I simply cannot do it alone... |
