(Spoken) Gone, it's all gone.
It's good, isn't it
grand, isn't it
great, isn't it
swell, isn't it
fun, isn't it
nowadays?
There's men everywhere,
jazz everywhere,
booze everywhere,
life everywhere,
joy everywhere,
nowadays.
You can like the life you're livin',
you can live the life you like.
You can even marry Harry,
bus mess around with Ike;
And that's good, isn't it
grand, isn't it
great, isn't it
swell?
(Spoken) Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Vicar's Theatre,
Chicago's finest home of
family entertainment is
proud to announce a first:
The first time anywhere
there's been an act of this nature;
not only one little lady, but two.
You've read about them in the papers,
and now, here they are:
A double header!
Chicago's own killer dillers!
Those two scintillating sinners:
Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly!
You can like the life you're living,
you can live the life ya' like,
you can even marry Harry,
bus 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, ya' know,
but - oh - it's heaven,
nowadays.
(Whistling)
Wah wah
Wah wah wah wah wah

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, ya' know,
but - oh! It's heaven,
nowadays.
