We Both Reached For The Gun

Mr Billy Flynn and the press conference rag
 Notice how his mouth never moves
 Almost
 Where'd you come from?
 Mississippi
 And your parents?
 Very wealthy
 Where are they now?
 Six feet under
 But she was granted one more start
 The convent of The Sacred Heart!
 ♪
 When'd you get here?
 1920
 How old were you?
 Don't remember
 Then what happened?
 I met Amos
 And he stole my heart away
 Convinced me to elope one day
 Oh, you poor dear, I can't believe what you've been through
 A convent girl, a runaway marriage
 Now tell us Roxie
 Who's Fred Casely?
 My ex-boyfriend
 Why'd you shoot him?
 I was leavin'
 Was he angry?
 Like a madman
 Still I said, Fred, move along
 She knew that she was doin' wrong
 Then describe it
 He came toward me
 With a pistol?
 From my bureau
 Did you fight him?
 Like a tiger
 He had strength and she had none
 And yet we both reached for the gun
 Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes we both
 Oh yes we both
 Oh yes, we both reached for
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 Oh yes, we both reached for the gun
 For the gun
 Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes they both
 Oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both reached for
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 Oh yes, they both reached for the gun
 For the gun
 Understandable, understandable
 Yes, it's perfectly understandable
 Comprehensible, Comprehensible
 Not a bit reprehensible
 It's so defensible!
 How're you feeling?
 Very frightened
 Are you sorry?
 Are you kidding?
 What's your statement?
 All I'd say is
 Though my choo-choo jumped the track
 I'd give my life to bring him back
 And?
 Stay away from
 What?
 Jazz and liquor
 And?
 And the men who
 What?
 Play for fun
 And what?
 That's the thought that
 Yeah
 Came upon me
 When?
 When we both reached for the gun!
 Understandable, understandable
 Yes, it's perfectly understandable
 Comprehensible, comprehensible
 Not a bit reprehensible
 It's so defensible!
 Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both reached for
 Let me hear it!
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 Oh yes, they both reached for the gun
 For the gun
 A little louder!
 Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both reached for (Oh yeah)
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 Oh yes, they both reached for the gun
 For the gun (Now you've got it!)
 Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both reached for
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 Oh yes, they both reached for the gun
 For the gun
 Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both
 Oh yes, they both, oh yes, they both reached for
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
 Both reached for the
 Gun (The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun)
 (The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun)
 (The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun)
 (The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun)
 (Both reached for the gun!)
