Chicago The Musical - I can't do it alone lyrics

(Announcer) Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Velma Kelly in an act of desperation. (VK) My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop. My sister and I were headed straight for the top. My sister and 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! Velma Kelly (to Roxie): Now, you have to imagine it with two people! It's swell with two people. (VK) 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 to roar, whistled, stomped, stamped on the floor! Yelling, screaming, begging for more! And we'd say, "Ok, fellas, keep your socks up, 'cause you ain't seen nothing yet!" (Instrumental) But I simply cannot do it alone! Velma Kelly (to Roxie): So what'd ya think, huh? Come on, you can say... [Roxie blows a raspberry] Velma Kelly (to Roxie): I know you're right, the first part's sh**. But the second part, the second part is really nifty! Ok... (VK) She'd go - I'd go - We'd go - Then those two-bit johnny's did it around to cheer the best attraction in town they nearly tore the balcony down! And we'd say, "Ok boys, we're going home. But before we go, here's a few more partin' shots!" And this, this we did in perfect unison! (Instrumental) Now you see me going through it you may think there's nothing to it but I simply cannot do it alone!
