[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen,
Miss Roxie Hart says Good Night.

[Roxie Hart]
There's man,
Everywhere jazz,
Everywhere booze,
Everywhere life,
Everywhere joy,
Everywhere
Nowadays
You can like the life you're living
You can live the life you like
You can even marry Harry
But mess around with Ike
And that's
Good,
Isn't it, grand?
Isn't it, great?
Isn't it, swell?
Isn't it, fun?
Isn't it...
But nothing
stays
You can like the life you're living
You can live the life you like

[Man I]
Didn't she kill a guy a while back?

[Man II]
Yeah, who can keep it straight anymore?

[Roxie Hart]
But mess around with Ike
And that's
Good,
Isn't it, grand?
Isn't it, great?
Isn't it, swell?

[Man I]
That's great. We'll keep in touch.

[Roxie Hart]
You know I'm not quite finished yet.
I have a...
Wait, don't go.
I could... just a second...
Goddamn it!
Thank you!

[Announcer]
Here's your music, honey.

[Roxie Hart]
Thanks.

[Velma Kelly]
You know you're really pretty good.

[Roxie Hart]
Yeah. What are you doing here?

[Velma Kelly]
I've been making around.

[Roxie Hart]
Well, if not fooled up by you, I'll be swinging right now.

[Velma Kelly]
Come on, I was there to get you off. You should learn how to put things behind
you.

[Roxie Hart]
Thank you. I'll put that at the top of my list right after finding a job and an
apartment with a John.

[Velma Kelly]
Can you shut up and listen to me?

[Roxie Hart]
You really are something. Coming in here like some goddamn queen bee, full of
advice for a poor slop like me. Let me tell you something, Miss Velma Kelly.
I got a new life now. And one of the best thing about it, is it don't include
you.

[Velma Kelly]
Fine. Ijust thought we could help each other out.

[Roxie Hart]
Wait, you thought wrong, didn't you?

[Velma Kelly]
Listen to me. I talked to this guy in downtown. He says one chance hurts
nothing these days, but two... We can make a couple hundred a week. Think about
it, Roxie. Faces back on the papers and names in the market. Velma Kelly and
Roxie Hart.

[Roxie Hart]
Should it be alphabetical?

[Velma Kelly]
That could work.

[Roxie Hart]
A couple hundred? Maybe we can ask for a thousand. We'll worth it. Forget it,
it'll never work.

[Velma Kelly]
Why not?

[Roxie Hart]
'Cause I hate you.

[Velma Kelly]
There's only one business in the world that's no problem at all.

[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen, the Chicago theatre is proud to announce the first.
The first time anywhere that's been an act throughout this nation. Not only one
little lady, but two. You red about them in the papers, and now here they are.
Chicago zone killer-dealers, the lady-sinners, Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly!

[Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly]
You can like the life you're living
You can live the life you like
You can even marry Harry
But mess around with Ike
And that's good?
Isn't it, grand?
Isn't it, great?
Isn't it, swell?
Isn't it, fun?
isn't it?
But nothing stays
In fifty years or so
It's gonna change, you know
But, oh, it's heaven
Nowadays

[Announcer]
Okay, you babes of Jazz, let's kick up the bass. Let's make the party longer,
let's make the skirt shorter. Let's all go to the heaven that makes all the
people hot!

[Velma Kelly]
Me and Roxie would just like to say thank you.

[Roxie Hart]
Thank you!
Believe us, we could've never
done anything without you!

And all
That
Jazz!
That Jazz!
