I Can't Do It Alone Lyrics - Singles - Catherine Zeta - Jones

Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Velma Kelley 

In an act of desperation 

My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop 

My sister and I were headed straight for the top 

My sister and I earned a thou a week, at least oh yeah 

But my sister 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 

Now you have to imagine it 

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'd 

But I can't do it alone 

She'd say,"What's your sister like?" 

I'd say "Man" 

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 

Then those ding dong daddies started a roar 

Whistles, stomped, stamped on the floor 

Yellin', screamin' begging for more 

And we'd say "Okay fellas 

Keep your socks up 

'Cause you ain't seen nothin' yet" 

But I simply cannot do it alone 

So what do you think? 

Come on, you can say 

I know you're right, the first part's shit 

But the second part 

The second part is really nifty 

Okay 

She'd go 

I'd go 

We'd go 

And then those two bit Johnnys did it up brown 

To cheer the best attraction in town 

They nearly tore the balcony down 

And we'd say "Okay boys, we're going home 

But before we go here's a few more pardon shots" 

And this, this we did in perfect unison 

Now you see me goin' through it 

You may think there's nothin' to it 

But I simply cannot do it alone
