Ladys and Gentlemans, miss Velma Kelly in the act of desperation.
[VELMA]
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.

[VELMA, dançando]

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!"

[VELMA, dançando]

But I simply can't i do it ALONE!

What did ya' think, ah? Come on, you can say.

[ROXIE]
Blshhhhh!!

[VELMA]
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.

[VELMA, dançando]

Now, you've seen me goin' through it
It may seem there's nothin' to it
But I simply cannot do it
Alone!
