I Can't Do It Alone
Chicago (Musical)
Ladys and gentlemans, miss velma kelly in the act of desperation
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
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!
Watch this
Now you have to imagine
This with two people
It's swell with two people
First I'd
Then she'd
Then we'd
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
Tarãk, tah!
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
And we'd say: O.K. fellas, keep your socks up
You ain't seen nothin' yet!
But I simply can't I do it alone!
What did ya' think, ah? Come on, you can say
Blshh!!
I know, you're wright
First part is cheat, but the second part
The second part is really nifty, o. K.!
She'd go
I'd go
We'd go!
And then those two-bit johnnies did it up brown
To cheer the best attraction in town
They nearly tore the balcony down
And we'd say: O.K. boys, o. K
We're goin' home, but here's a few more partin' shots!
And this, this we did in perfect unison
Now, you've seen me goin' through it
It may seem there's nothin' to it
But I simply cannot do it
Alone!
