Catherine Zeta - Jones, Taye Diggs - I Can't Do It Alone Lyrics - Soundtrack

[velma (to roxie)] 

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

My sister and I were headed straight fo the top 

My sister and I earned a thou a week at least 

Oh, sure! 

But my sistr is now, unfortunately, deceased 

Oh, 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!

[spoken] 

Roxie, do you know you are exactly the same 

Size as my sister? oh, you would fit in her wardrobe 

Perfectly. look, why don't I just show you some of 

The act, huh? watch this. 

[velma dances] 

Now you have to imagine 

This with two people. 

It's swell with two people. 

First i'd...(drums!) 

Then she'd...(saxophone!) 

Then we'd...(together!) 

But I can't do it alone! 

Then she'd... 

Then i'd... 

Then we'... 

But I can't do it alone!

She'd say,"what's your sister like? " 

I'd say, "men," 

Yuk, yuk, yuk 

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... 

And then those ding-dong daddies started to roar 

Whistled, stomped and stamped on the floor 

Yelling, sreaming, begging for more. 

[spoken] 

And we'd say, "o.k. fellas, keep your socks up. 

You ain't seen nothin' yet!" 

[velma dances] 

But I simply cannot do it alone! 

Well? what did ya' think? come on, you can say. 

[roxie gives her a raspberry] 

O.k., o.k. the first part can always be rewritten. 

But the second part was really nifty. watch this. 

Then she'd...(see, get it, right? ) 

Then i'd...(then I'd kick really high...) 

Then we'd... 

But I can't do it alone! 

She'd say, "what state's chicago in? " 

I'd say, "ill!" 

Did ya' get that? 

She'd say, "turn your motor off" 

I can hear 'em cheerin' still 

When she'd go... 

I'd go... 

We'd go...(sideways!) 

And then those two-bit johnnies did it up brown 

To cheer the best attraction in town 

They nearly tore the balcony down 

[spoken] 

And we'd say. "o.k. fellas, o.k., 

We're goin' home, but here's a few more partin' shots!" 

And this... this we did in perfect unison. 

[velma dances] 

Now, you've seen me goin' through it 

It may seem there's nothin' to it 

But I simply cannot do it 

Alone! 

[roxie turns her down] 

Like the deserted bride on her wedding night 

All alone and shaking with fright 

With her brand new hubby nowhere in sight 

I simply cannot do it alone...
