Pop
Six
Squish

And now, the six merry murderesses of the Cook County Jail (pop, six, squish)
In their rendition of the Cell Block Tango (uh-uh, Cicero)
Lipschitz
Pop
Six
Squish
Uh-uh
Cicero
Lipschitz
Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz
Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz
Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz
He had it comin'
He had it comin'
He only had himself to blame
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would have done the same
Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz
Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz
You know how people have these little habits that get you down?
Like, Bernie, Bernie, he liked to chew gum
No, not chew, pop
So I came home this one day and I'm really irritated
And I'm looking for a little bit o' sympathy
And there's Bernie, lyin' on the couch, drinkin' a beer and chewin'
No, not chewin', poppin'
So, I said to him, I said "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 comin'
He had it comin'
He only had himself to blame
If you'd have been there
If you'd have heard it
I betcha you would have done the same
I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago
And he told me he was single
And 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 hold their arsenic
He had it comin' (pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)
He had it comin'
He took a flower in it's prime (pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)
And then he used it (pop), and he abused it (six)
It was a murder (squish), but not a crime (uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)
Now I'm standing in the kitchen (pop, six)
Carving up a chicken for dinner (uh-uh)
Minding my own business (Cicero)
In storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage (Lipschitz)
"You been screwin' the milkman, " he says (pop)
He was crazy (six), and he kept on screamin' (uh-uh)
"You been screwin' the milkman"
And then he ran into my knife
He ran into my knife ten times
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would have done the same
Mit kersek, en itt?
Azt mondjok, hogy a hires lakóm lefogta a ferjemet
En meg Lecsaptam a fejet
De nem igaz
En artatlan vagyok
Nem tudom
Mert mondja Uncle Sam hogy en tettem
Probaltam
A rendorsegen megmayarazni de nem ertettek meg
Yeah, but did you do it? (Uh-uh, not guilty!)
(He had it coming, he had it coming)
My sister, Veronica and I had this double act
And my husband, Charlie traveled round with us (he only had himself to blame)
Now, for the last number in our act (if you'd have been there)
We did these 20 acrobatic tricks in a row
One, two, three, four, five, splits, spread eagles (if you'd have been there)
Back flips, flip flops, one right after the other (if you'd have seen it)
So this one night before the show, we're down at the Hotel Cicero (I betcha)
The three of us, boozin', havin' a few laughs (you would have done the same)
And we ran out of ice, so I go out to get some (he had it comin')
I come back, open the door, and there's Veronica and Charlie (he had it comin')
Doing number 17, the spread eagle (he took a flower)
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 hands
I even knew they were dead
They had it comin' (they had it comin')
They had it comin' (they had it comin')
They had it comin' all along (they had it comin' all along)
I didn't do it (she didn't do it)
But if I'd done it (but if she'd done it)
How could you tell me that I was wrong?
They had it comin' (they had it comin')
They had it comin' (they had it comin')
They had it comin' all along (they took a flower in its prime)
I didn't do it (and then they used it)
But if I'd done it
How could you tell me that I was wrong?
I loved Al Lipschitz more than I can possibly say (he had it comin')
He was a real artistic guy, sensitive, a painter
But he was always trying to find himself (he only had himself to blame)
He'd go out every night looking for himself
And on the way he found Ruth (if you'd have been there)
Gladys, Rosemary and Irving (if you'd have seen it)
I guess you could say we broke up
Because of artistic differences (I betcha you would have done the same)
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 comin' (they had it comin')
They had it comin' (they had it comin')
They had it comin' all along (they had it comin' all along)
'Cause if they used us ('cause if they used us)
And they abused us (and they abused us)
How could you tell us that we were wrong?
He had it comin' (he had it comin')
He had it comin' (he had it comin')
He only had himself to blame (he only had himself to blame)
If you'd have been there (if you'd have been there)
If you'd have seen it (if you'd have seen it)
I betcha you would have done the same
You pop that gum one more time (single my ass)
(Ten times!) Miert csukott Uncle Sam bortonbe
Number 17, the spread eagle (artistic differences)
Pop
Six
Squish
Uh-uh
Cicero
Lipschitz
