ROXIE



ROXIE

The name on everybody's lips
Is gonna be Roxie

The lady rakin' in the chips

Is gonna be Roxie



I'm gonna be a celebrity

That means somebody everyone knows

They're gonna recognize my eyes

My hair, my teeth, my boobs, my nose


From just some dumb mechanic's wife

I'm gonna be Roxie

Who says that murder's not an art?



And who in case she doesn't hang

Can say she started with a bang?

Foxy Roxie Hart!



ROXIE

You wanna know something? I always wanted to be in vaudeville.

And now that I'm a celebrity, I'm gonna have me a swell act,

too. Yeah, I'll get a boy to work with - someone who can lift

me up, show me off - Oh, hell, I'll get two boys. It'll frame

me better. Think "Big," Roxie, think "Big." I'm gonna get me

a whole bunch of boys.
