[Anne (Spoken)]I met Ezekiel Young fromSalt Lake city about two years agoand he told me he was singleand 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 holdtheir arsenic.
Hah! He had it comingHe had it comingHe took a flowerIn its primeAnd then he used itAnd he abused itIt was a murderBut not a crime!

He was crazyand he kept screamin',"Υou been screwin the milkman."And then he ran into my knife.He ran into my knife ten times!

[Hunyak (Spoken)]Mit keresek, én itt?Azt mondják, hogy a híres lakem lefogtaa férjemet én meg lecsaptam a fejét.De nem igaz, én ártatlan vagyok.Nem tudom miért mondja Uncle Sam,hogy én tettem.Probáltam a rendõrségenmegmagyarázni de nem értették meg...
[Roxie]: Yeah, but did you do it?[Hunyak]: UH UH, not guilty!
[Velma]My sister, Veronica andI had this double actand my husband, Charlie,traveled around with us.Now, for the last number inour act, we did 20 acrobatic tricksone two three four,five...splits,spread eagles, back flips,flip flops,one right after the other.Well, this one night we were in the hotel Cicero,the three of us,boozin' and havin' a few laughsand we ran out of ice.So I went out to get some.I come back, open the doorand there's Veronica andCharlie doing Number Seventeen-the spread eagle.
Well, I was in such a state of shock,I completely blacked out.I can't remember a thing.It wasn't until later,when I was washing the blood off my handsI even knew they were dead.
They had it comingThey had it comingThey had it coming all alongI didn't do itBut if I'd done itHow could you tell me that I was wrong?

[Mona]I loved Al Lipschitzmore than I can possibly say.He was a real artistic guy...sensitive... a painter.But he was always tryingto find himself.He'd go out every nightlooking for himselfand on the wayhe found Ruth, Gladys,Rosemary and Irving.I guess you can say we brokeup because of artistic differences.He saw himself as aliveand I saw him dead.
