Ladies and gentlemen, The Chicago Theater
Is proud to announce a first
The first time anywhere there's been an act of this nature
Not only one little lady, but two
You've read about them in the papers
And now here they are
Chicago's own killers, drillers
Those scintillating sinners
Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly
[VELMA & ROXIE]
You can like the life you're living
You can live the life you like
You can even marry Harry
But mess around with Ike
And that's good, isn't it grand?
Isn't it great? Isn't it swell?
Isn't it fine? Isn't it?
But nothing stays
In fifty years or so
It's gonna change, you know
But oh, it's heaven
Nowadays
[EMCEE, falado]
Ok, you babes of jazz
Let's pick up the pace
Let's make the parties longer
Let's make the skirts shorter
Let's all go to hell in a fast car
And keep it hot
