I Can't Do It Alone Lyric Chicago CHICAGO SOUNDTRACK

[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...
