"Roxie"
[ROXIE]
The name on everybody's lips
Is gonna be Roxie
The lady rakin' in the chips
Is gonna be Roxie
I'm gonna be a celebrity
That means somebody everyone knows
They're gonna recognize my eyes
My hair, my teeth, my boobs, my nose
From just some dumb mechanic's wife
I'm gonna be Roxie
Who says that murders not an art?
And who in case she doesn't hang
can say she started with a bang?
Roxie Hart!
[ROXIE]
Boys
[BOYS]
They're gonna wait outside in line
To get to see Roxie
[ROXIE]
Think of those autographs I'll sign
"Good luck to you" (Roxie!)
And I'll appear in Lavaliere
That goes all the way down to my waist
[BOYS]
Here a ring, there a ring
Everywhere a ring a ling
[ROXIE]
But always in the best of taste
[ROXIE (spoken)]
Oooh I'm a star.
And the audience loves me.
And I love them.
And they love me for loving them.
And I love them for loving me.
And we love each other.
And that's because none of us
got enough love in our childhoods.
And that's show biz, Kid.
[BOYS]
She's giving up her humdrum life
[ROXIE]
I'm gonna be
Sing it!
[BOYS]
Roxie.
She made a scandal and a start.
[ROXIE]
And Sophie Tucker will shit, I know
To see her name get billed below
Roxie Hart!
[BOYS]
Roxie, Roxie,Roxie,Roxie,Roxie
