Nowadays/Hot Honey Rag (Chicago)

BANDMASTER
Ladies and Gentlemen
The Chicago Theatre is proud to announce a first
The first time anywhere there has 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
Chicago's own killer dillers, those scintillating sinners
Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly

ROXIE AND VELMA
You can like the life you're living
You can live the life you like
You can even marry Harry
But 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 50 years or so, it's gonna change ya know
But oh its heaven, nowadays

BANDMASTER
Ok you babes of jazz
Let's pick up the pace
Let's make the parties longer, lets make the skirts shorter
Let's all go to hell in a fast car and keep it hot

ROXIE AND VELMA
And all that jazz!
