Chicago - Cell Block Tango
And now, the 6 merry murderesses of the Cook County Jail, in their rendition of the Cell Block Tango!

Pop
Six
Squish
Uhuh
Cicero
Lipschitz (X3)

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

Pop Six Squish Uhuh Cicero Lipschitz

You know how people have these little habits that get you down? Like Bernie. Bernie liked to chew gum. No, not chew, POP. Well I come home this one day and theres Bernie, layin' on the couch, chewing. No not chewing, popping. So I said to him I said, Bernie, 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 had himself to blame...

I met Geziegiel Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago, and he told me he was single and we, uh, hit it off right away. So we started living together - he'd go to work, he'd come home, I'd mix him a drink, and we'd have dinner; then I found out, single my ass! Not only was he married, well he had SIX WIVES! One of them mormans, you know? So that night when he came home, I mix him his drink as usual - you know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic.

He had it coming, he had it coming, he took the power in his heart,
And then he used it, and he abused it, it was a murder but not a crime.

Now I'm standing in the kitchen, carving up the chicken for dinner, and in storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage. 'You been screwing the milkman' he said, and he kept saying, 'you been screwing the milkman'! And then he ran into my knife! He ran into my knife, 10 times!

If you'd have been there, if you'd have seen it, I bet you you would have done the same!

(Spanish verse, there's no way I'm even guessing at it!)
'But did you do it?'
'Uhuh. Not guilty.'(strong Spanish accent)

My sister Veronica and I did this double act and my husband Charlie travelled around with us. For the last number in our act we did these 20 acrobatic tricks in a row - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Splits, Spread Eagles, Flip flops, Backflips, one right after the other. Well this one night we were in Cicero, the three of us, and we were in this hotel room boozin' and having a few laughs, and we ran out of ice. So I went out to get some. I come back, open the door; there's Veronica and Charlie, doing number 17 - the Spread Eagle. Now 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 hands I even knew they were dead!

They had it coming (They had it coming)
They had it coming (They had it coming)
They had it coming all along,
I didn't do it!
But if I'd done it,
How could you tell me that I was wrong?

I loved Alvin Lipschitz. He was a real artistic guy, sensitive, a painter - but he was ALWAYS trying to find himself. He'd go out EVERY night looking for himself; and on the way he found Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary; and Irvin. I guess you can say we broke up because of artistic differences - he saw himself as alive... and I saw him dead.

The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

They had it coming (They had it coming)
They had it coming (They had it coming)
They had it coming all along,
And then they used us, and they abused us, how could you tell us that we were wrong.

He had it coming (He had it coming)
He had it coming (He had it coming)
He only had himself to blame,
If you'd have been there,
If you'd have seen it,
I bet you you would have done the same.

'You pop that gun one more time'
'Single my ass'
'10 times!'
(something spanish)
'Number 17 - the Spread Eagle'
'Artistic Differences'

I betcha you would have done the same!
Green Day - Basket Case
Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything all at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone no doubt about it

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up, I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
I'm just stoned

I went to a shrink,
To analyze my dreams.
She says it's lack of sex that's bringin' me down.
I went to a whore, who said my life's a bore,
So quit my whinin', cause it's bringin' her down.

Sometimes I give myself the creeps,
Sometimes my mind plays trick on me
It all keeps adding up,
I think I'm crackin' up.
Am I just paranoid?
ah-ya-ya-yaaa

Grasping to control,
So you better hold on.

Sometimes I give myself the creeps,
Sometimes my mind plays trick on me
It all keeps adding up,
I think I'm crackin' up.
Am I just paranoid?
I'm just stoned.


Lifehouse - Hanging by a Moment
Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
I'm closer to where I started
Chasing after you

I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held on to
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hangin by a moment here with you

Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me now

I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held on to
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
And I don't know what I'm diving in to
I'm hanging by a moment here with you

There's nothing else to lose
There's nothing else to find
There's nothing in the world
That could change my mind
There is nothing else...
Lit - My Own Worst Enemy
Can we forget about the thinks I said when I was drunk
I didn't mean to call you that
I can't remember what was said or what you threw at me
Please tell me
Please tell me why
My car is in the front yard
And I'm sleeping with my clothes on
I came in through the window last night
And you're gone

It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy
Cuz every now and then I kick the living sh*t out of me
The smoke alarm is going off and there's a cigarette
Still burning
Please tell me why
My car is in the front yard
And I'm sleeping with my clothes on
I came in through the window last night
And you're gone
Please tell me why
My car is in the front yard
And I'm sleeping with my clothes on
I came in through the window last night
It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy
Cuz every now and then I kick the living sh*t out of me
Can we forget about the the things I said when I was drunk
I didn't mean to call you that



Iron Maiden - Prowler
Walking through the city, looking oh so pretty,
I've just got to find my way.
See the ladies flashing. All there legs and lashes.
I've just got to find my way.

Well you see me crawling through the bushes with it open wide.
What you seeing girl?
Can't you believe that feeling, can't you believe it,
Can't you believe your eyes?
It's the real thing girl.

Got me feeling myself and reeling around,
Got me talking but feel like walking around.
Got me feeling myself and reeling a...
Got me talking but nothing's with me...
Got me feeling myself and reeling around.
Black Sabbath - Fairies Wear Boots (Jack The Stripper)
Goin' home late last night
Suddenly I got a fright
Yeah I looked through the window
And surprise what I saw
A fairy with boots on dancin' with a dwarf
Alright now

Fairies wear boots and now you gotta believe me
Yeah I saw it I saw it
I tell you no lie

Yeah fairies had boots on you gotta believe me
I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes
Woah right now

So I went to the doctor to see what he could give me
He said son, son, you've gone too far
'Cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do
Yeah

The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah,

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change
I can't change

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
Try to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the things meet yeah

You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

I can't change my mold
no, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
no, no, no

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?
Savage Garden - Two Beds & A Coffee Machine
And she takes another step
Slowly she opens the door
Check that he is sleeping
Pick up all the broken glass and furniture on the floor
Been up half the night screaming now it's time to get away
Pack up the kids in the car
Another bruise to try and hide
Another alibi to write

Another ditch in the road
You keep moving
Another stop sign
You keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
Wonder how I ever made it through

And there are children to think of
Baby's asleep in the backseat
Wonder how they'll ever make it through this living nightmare
But the mind is an amazing thing
Full of candy dreams and new toys and another cheap hotel
Two beds and a coffee machine
But there are groceries to buy
And she knows she'll have to go home

Another ditch in the road
You keep moving
Another stop sign
You keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
Wonder how I ever made it through

Another bruise to try and hide
Another alibi to write
Another lonely highway in the black of night
But there's hope in the darkness
You know you're going to make it

Another ditch in the road
Keep moving
Another stop sign
You keep moving on
And the years go by so fast
Silent fortress built to last
Wonder how I ever made it

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored, self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido, yeah

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido, yeah

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido, yeah

Iced Earth - A Question Of Heaven
The time is close now, the end is near
My walk through the valley, trails of fear
I feel empty, my penance overdue, I guess it's too late now
To be with you
I'm extremely frightened of what will surely be
I sold myself, the death of me
I know you can't forgive me
I know I'm on my own, I've betrayed you
I walk alone

What exactly is the meaning of this
Just pawns in your twisted game
Severe pain for the lie I'm livin'
For a love I never could betray

Bridge
Question me not say the lord unto thee
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
Denied of this life is what you are to be
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny

Lord I pound my fists at you
Won't you just let me die
Would I not suffer enough
No inner peace no after life

Repeat Bridge

I did what I thought was right
All for the love of my life
I know it's sad but true
Something is very wrong
Condemned to suffer so long
For a love so true

The question that lies within
Is so hard to understand
It still tears at me
And in my dying breath
My heart holds no regrets
I wouldn't change a thing

My spirit begins to rise into the heavenly skies
Just to be shunned away by you
Now all I want is to die, no streets of gold in the sky
And I wash my hands of you

Bridge
Rising to the heavens light
Just to plea for death
Just to be denied-
