Lyrics We Both Reached for the Gun

Mister Flynn the reporters are here
Let 'em in Butch okay Roxie
Act like a dummy you sit on my lap
And I'll do all the talking
Mister Billy Flynn sings 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?
Nineteen twenty
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
A convent girl a run-away marriage
Oh it's too terrible you poor poor dear
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 doing wrong
Then describe it
He came toward me with the pistol? from my bureau
Did you fight him?
Like a tiger he had strength and she had none
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
Yes it's perfectly understandable understandable
Comprehensible
Comprehensible comprehensible comprehensible
Not a bit reprehensible
Not a bit reprehensible it's so defensible 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 the gun the gun the gun
The gun oh yes they both
Now you got it 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
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
