[00:09.31] And now the six merry murderesses of the Cook County Jail
[00:13.22] In their rendition of 'The Cell Block Tango'
[00:17.04] Pop!
[00:18.48] Six!
[00:20.27] Squish!
[00:22.58] Uh uh!
[00:24.38] Cicero!
[00:26.50] Lipschitz!
[00:28.34] Pop!
[00:29.64] Six!
[00:30.35] Squish!
[00:31.56] Uh uh!
[00:32.42] Cicero!
[00:33.52] Lipschitz!
[00:36.58] Pop!
[00:37.10] Six!
[00:37.58] Squish!
[00:38.06] Uh uh!
[00:39.03] Cicero!
[00:39.45] Lipschitz!
[00:40.11] Pop!
[00:40.76] Six!
[00:41.24] Squish!
[00:42.03] Uh uh!
[00:42.68] Cicero!
[00:43.36] Lipschitz!
[00:44.31] He had it coming, he had it coming
[00:48.40] He only had himself to blame
[00:52.45] If you'd have been there, if you'd have seen it
[00:56.05] I betcha you would have done the same
[00:59.42] Pop!
[00:59.92] Six!
[01:00.29] Squish!
[01:00.66] Uh uh!
[01:01.37] Cicero!
[01:01.65] Lipschitz!
[01:01.97] Pop!
[01:03.32] Six!
[01:03.89] Squish!
[01:04.46] Uh uh!
[01:05.19] Cicero!
[01:05.80] Lipschitz!
[01:06.85] You know how people have these little habits
[01:09.45] That get you down
[01:10.63] Like Bernie, Bernie, He likes to chew gum, no, not chew, Pop!
[01:18.53] So I came home this one day and
[01:20.45] I'm really irritated and
[01:21.40] I'm looking for a lil' bit of sympathy
[01:23.59] And there's Bernie layin' on the couch,
[01:25.88] drinkin' a beer and chewin'
[01:27.17] No, not chewin', poppin'!
[01:30.88] So, I said to him, I said
[01:32.72] "You pop that gum one more time..." and he did
[01:38.74] So I took the shotgun off the wall
[01:41.01] And I fired two warning shots into his head
[01:44.40]
[01:48.18] He had it coming, he had it coming
[01:51.64] He only had himself to blame
[01:55.55] If you'd have been there, if you'd have heard it
[01:58.78] I betcha you would have done the same
[02:02.96]
[02:09.52] I met Ezekiel Young from
[02:11.01] Salt Lake City about two years ago
[02:13.46] And he told me he was single and we hit it off right away
[02:17.31] So, we started living together
[02:19.09] He'd go to work, he'd come home,
[02:21.04] I'd fix him a drink, and we'd have dinner.
[02:23.72] And then I found out,
[02:26.32] Single, he told me
[02:28.41] Single, my butt!
[02:30.44] Not only was he married, oh no, he had six wives
[02:34.64] One of those Mormons, you know
[02:37.62] So that night, when he came home from work
[02:40.60] I fixed him his drink as usual
[02:43.06] You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic
[02:48.89] He had it coming (Pop! Six! Squish!)
[02:51.32] He had it coming (Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
[02:53.15] He took a flower (Pop! Six! Squish!) in its prime (Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
[02:56.69] And then he used it (Pop!) and he abused it (Six!)
[03:00.16] It was a murder (Squish!) but not a crime (Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
[03:04.00] Now, I'm standing in the kitchen
[03:06.46] Carvin' up the chicken for dinner, mindin' my own business
[03:09.15] And in storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage
[03:12.79] "You been doin' the milkman!"
[03:14.65] He says, he was crazy and he kept on screamin'
[03:17.84] "You been doin' the milkman!"
[03:20.06] Then he ran into my knife
[03:22.34] He ran into my knife ten times
[03:27.46] The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
[03:31.08] The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
[03:34.77] They had it comin', they had it comin'
[03:37.07] They had it comin', they had it comin'
[03:38.75] They had it comin', they had it comin', all along, all along
[03:42.18] 'Cause if they used us and they abused us
[03:44.66] How could they tell us that we were wrong?
[03:48.67] Could you tell us that we were wrong?
