ANNOUNCER(Spoken)
Ladies and gentlemen, the Chicago Theater,
is proud to announce a first. The first time, anywhere, there has 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 killer dillers
-those two scintillating sinners
Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly.
ROXIE AND VELMA
You can like the life you’re livin’
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?
Fun, isn’t it?
But nothing stays
In fifty years or so
It’s gonna change, you know
But, oh, it’s heaven
Nowadays
ANNOUNCER
Okay, 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!
