LYRICS

Mr. Billy Flynn and the press conference rag
Notice how his mouth never moves
Almost
Where'd you come from?
Mississippi
And your parents?
Very wealthy
Where are they now?
Six feet under
But she was granted one more start
The Convent of The Sacred Heart
When'd you get here?
1920
How old were you?
Don't remember
Then what happened?
I met Amos and he stole my heart away
Convinced me to elope one day

Oh, you poor dear, I can't believe what you have been through
A convent girl
A runaway marriage
Now tell us, Roxie, who's Fred Casely?

My ex-boyfriend
Why'd you shoot him?
I was leaving
Was he angry?
Like a madman
Still I said, "Fred, move along"
She knew that she was doing wrong
Then describe it
He came toward me
With the pistol?
From my bureau
Did you fight him?
Like a tiger, he had strength and she had none
And yet we both reached for the gun

Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, we both
Oh, yes, we both, oh, yes, we both reached for
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun, oh, yes
We both reached for the gun, for the gun
Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, they both
Oh, yes, they both, oh, yes, they both reached for
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun, oh, yes
They both reached for the gun, for the gun

Understandable, understandable
Yes, it's perfectly understandable
Comprehensible, comprehensible
Not a bit reprehensible, it's so defensible

How're you feeling?
Very frightened
Are you sorry?
Are you kidding?
What's your statement?
All I'd say is
Though my choo-choo jumped the track
I'd give my life to bring him back
And?
Stay away from
What?
Jazz and liquor
And?
And the men who
What?
Play for fun
And what?
That's the thought that
Yeah
Came upon me...
When?
When we both reached for the gun

Understandable, understandable
Yes, it's perfectly understandable
Comprehensible, comprehensible
Not a bit reprehensible, it's so defensible

Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, they both
Oh, yes, they both, oh, yes, they both reached for
Let me hear it
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun, oh, yes
They both reached for the gun, for the gun
A little louder
Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, they both
Oh, yes, they both, oh, yes, they both reached for
Oh, yeah
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun, oh, yes
They both reached for the gun, for the gun
Now you got it

Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, they both
Oh, yes, they both, oh, yes, they both reached for
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun, oh, yes
They both reached for the gun, for the gun
Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, they both
Oh, yes, they both, oh, yes, they both reached for
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

Both reached for the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
Both reached for the gun
