And now, the six merry murderesses of the Cook County Jail
In their rendition of the Cell Block Tango

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

(He had it comin')
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

(He had it comin')
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'
He had it comin'
He took a flower
In its prime
And then he used it
And he abused it
It was a murder
But not a crime
(Uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)

Now, I'm standing in the kitchen
Carvin' up a chicken for dinner
Minding my own business
In storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage
"You been screwin' the milkman," he says
He was crazy
And he kept on screamin'
"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 comin')
My sister, Veronica and I had this double act
And my husband, Charlie traveled round with us
Now, for the last number in our act
We did these twenty acrobatic tricks in a row
One, two, three, four, five, splits, spread eagles
Back flips, flip flops
One right after the other
So this one night before the show we are down at the Hotel Cicero
The three of us, boozin' 
Havin' a few laughs
And we ran out of ice
So I go out to get some
I come back, open the door
And there's Veronica and Charlie 
Doing number seventeen
The spread eagle
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
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 was a real artistic guy
Sensitive, a painter
But he was always trying to find himself
He'd go out every night looking for himself
And on the way
He found Ruth
Gladys
Rosemary and Irving
I guess you could say we broke up
Because of artistic differences
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
'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 Same bortonbe
Number seventeen, the spread eagle
Artistic differences
