He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you’d have been there

If you’d have seen it

(Velma) I betcha you would have done the same!

You know how people have these little habits that get you down?

Like Bernie. Bernie liked to chew gum

No, not chew: pop!

So I came home this one day and I am really irritated

And I’m looking for a bit of sympathy

And there’s Bernie, lyin' on the couch

Drinkin' a beer and chewin'

No, not chewin': poppin'!

So, I said to him

I said, «You pop that gum one more time…»

And he did

So I took the shotgun off the wall

And I fired two warning shots

…in-to his head

(all)

He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you’d have been there

If you’d have heard it

I betcha you would have done the same

(He had it coming)

(He had it coming)

(Annie)

I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago

And he told me he was single

And we hit it off right away

So, we started living together

He’d go to work, he’d come home

I’d fix him a drink, we’d have dinner

And then I found out

«Single» he told me?

Single, my ass

Not only was he married, oh no

He had six wives; one of those Mormons, you know

So that night, when he came home

I fixed him his drink as usual

You know, some guys just can’t hold their arsenic

(all)

He had it coming (Pop, six, squish)

He had it coming (uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)

He took a flower in its prime (Pop, six, squish)

And then he used it, and he abused it (uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)

It was a murder but not a crime! (Pop, six, squish)

(uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz)

(June))

Now, I’m standing in the kitchen, carvin' up the chicken for dinner

Minding my own business

And in storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage

«You been screwin' the milkman,» he says

He was crazy and he kept screamin'

«You been screwin' the milkman.»

And then he ran into my knife

He ran into my knife ten times

(all)

If you’d have been there

If you’d have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same!

(Hunyak)

Mit keresek, én itt?

Azt mondják, hogy a híres lakem lefogta a férjemet én meg

Lecsaptam a fejét

De nem igaz, én ártatlan vagyok

Nem tudom miért mondja Uncle Sam hogy én tettem

Probáltam a rendõrségen megmagyarázni de nem értették meg

(Roxie) Yeah, but did you do it?

(Hunyak) Uh-uh, not guilty!

(all)

He had it coming…

He had it coming…

(Velma)

My sister, Veronica and I had this double act

And my husband, Charlie, traveled around with us

Now, for the last number in our act

We did 20 acrobatic tricks in a row

One, two, three, four, five, splits, spread eagles

Back flips, flip flops, one right after the other

So this one night we were in the hotel Cicero

The three of us, boozin', havin' a few laughs

And we run out of ice, so I go out to get some

I come back, open the door

And there’s Veronica and Charlie

Doing Number 17: the spread eagle

Well, I was in such a state of shock

I completely blacked out, I can’t remember a thing

It wasn’t until later

When I was washing the blood off my hands

I even knew they were dead

(Veronica (echoed by all))

They had it coming (they had it coming)

They had it coming (they had it coming)

They had it coming all along (they had it coming all along)

I didn’t do it (she didn’t do it)

But if I’d done it (but if she’d done it)

How could you tell me that I was wrong?

They had it coming (they had it coming)

They had it coming (they had it coming)

They had it coming all along (they took a flower in its prime)

I didn’t do it (and then they used it)

But if I’d done it (and they abused it)

How could you tell me (it was a murder)

That I was wrong? (but not a crime)

(Mona)

I loved Alvin Lipschitz more than I can possibly say

He was a real artistic guy

Sensitive, a painter

But he was always trying to find himself

He’d go out every night looking for himself

And on the way he found Ruth

Gladys

Rosemary

And Irving

I guess you can say we broke up because of artistic differences

He saw himself as alive

And I saw him dead

(all)

The dirty bum (bum, bum, bum, bum)

The dirty bum (bum, bum, bum, bum)

(all)

They had it comin' (They had it comin')

They had it comin' (They had it comin')

They had it comin' (They had it comin')

All along (all along)

'Cause if they used us ('Cause if they used us)

And they abused us (And they abused us)

How could you tell us (How could you tell us)

That we were wrong? (That we were wrong?)

He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you’d have been there

If you’d have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same!

(Liz) You pop that gum one more time!

(Annie) Single my ass

(June) Ten times!
