Cell Block Tango

Drip drip,
Step.
Drip drip,
Step.
Nails,
Repeat.

Fire flares,
Pop.

Chest,
Six.

Fingers curling,
Squish.

Rosary,
Uh-uh.

Smoke,
Cicero.

Eyes,
Lipshitz.

Doors open,
"And now, the six merry murderesses of the Cook County jail."

The Cell Block Tango,
is what they call it,
Pop.
Six.
Squish.
Uh-uh.
Cicero.
Lipshitz.

He had it comin'
He chewed and popped gum,
she fired two warning shots into his head.
If you'da been there,
If you'da heard it,
I betcha you would have done the same.

He had it comin'
He had six wives,
Some guys can't hold their arsenic.
If you'da been there,
If you'da seen it,
I betcha you would have done the same.

He had it comin'
He told her she'd been screwin' the milkman,
He ran into her knife;
He ran into her knife ten times.
If you'da been there,
If you'da seen it,
I betcha you would have done the same.

He had it comin'
Did she do it?
Uh-uh. NOT GUILTY!
If you'da been there,
If you'da seen it,
I betcha you would have done the same.

He had it comin'
He was messing with her sister,
she shot them both.
If you'da been there,
If you'da seen it,
I betcha you would have done the same.

He had it comin'
He was messin around,
five other gals,
He saw himself as alive,
she saw him dead.
If you'da been there,
If you'da seen it,
I betcha you would have done the same.

Drip drip,

Lipshitz.
Repeat, fade out.
