Cell block tango- Chicago

Pop! Six! Squish! Ah-ah! Cicero! Lipschitz!

Pop!  Six!  Squish! Ah-ah!  Cicero!  Lipschitz!

And now, the six mistress marry murderesses of the Crook County Jail in their redition of: The Cell Block Tango

Pop!  Six!  Squish!  Ah-ah!  Cicero!  Lipschitz!

He had it coming
He had it coming
He only has himself to blame
If you'd of been there,
If you'd of seen it!
I bet you,
you would have done the same

You know how people
have these little habits
That get you down
Like Bernie,
Bernie liked to chew gum
No– not chew– pop!
So I get home from work one day,
And I'm really irritated
And I'm looking for some...
sympathy
And there's Bernie;
Sitting on the couch and chewing
No– not chewing– popping!
So I said to him
'You pop that gum one more time'
And he did.
So I took the shotgun off the wall
And I fired two warning shots–
Into his head!

He had it coming
He had it coming
He only has himself to blame
If you'd of been there
If you'd of heard it
I bet you,
You would've done the same!

I met Ezeikeil Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago

He told me he was single- and we hit it off right away

I met Ezekiel Young from

Salt Lake city about two years ago

and he told me he was single

and we hit it off right away.

So, we started living together.

He'd go to work, he'd come home, I'd

fix him a drink, We'd have dinner.

And then I found out,

"Single" he told me?

Single, my ass. Not only

was he married

...oh, no, he had six wives.

One of those Mormons, you know. So that

night, when he came home from work, I fixed him

his drink as usual.

You know, some guys just can't hold

their arsenic.

Hah! He had it coming

He had it coming

He took a flower

In its prime

And then he used it

And he abused it

It was a murder

But not a crime!

Pop, six, squish, uh-uh

Cicero, Lipschitz

Now, I'm standing in the kitchen

carvin' up the chicken for dinner,

minding my own business,

in storms my husband Wilbur,

in a jealous rage.

"You been screwin' the milkman,"

he says. He was crazy

and he kept screamin',

"you been screwin the milkman."
