Various Artists - I Can't Do It Alone lyrics

[Intro 1: Taye Diggs] Ladies and gentleman, Miss Velma Kelly in an act of desperation [Intro 2: Catherine Zeta-Jones] 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! [Spoken: Catherine Zeta-Jones] Watch this! Now, you have to imagine it with two people It's swell with two people [Verse 1: Catherine Zeta-Jones] 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 [Bridge: Catherine Zeta-Jones] She'd say "what's your sister like?" I'd say "men" She'd say "you're the cat's meow" Then we'd wow the crowd again [Verse 2: Catherine Zeta-Jones] 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, screamin', beggin' for more [Spoken: Catherine Zeta-Jones] And we'd say "ok fellas, keep your socks up Cause you ain't seen nothin' yet" [Refrain: Catherine Zeta-Jones] But I simply cannot do it alone [Spoken: Catherine Zeta-Jones] So what'd you think, huh? Come on, you can say I know, you're right, the first part is sh** But the second part—the second part is really nifty Ok [Verse 3: Catherine Zeta-Jones] 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 [Spoken: Catherine Zeta-Jones] And we'd say "ok boys, we're goin' home But before we go, here's a few more partin' shots" And this—this we did in perfect unison [Outro: Catherine Zeta-Jones] Now you see me going through it You make think there's nothing to it But I simply cannot do it alone
