I Can't Do It Alone lyrics

-Ladies and gentlemen,

Miss Velma Kelly in an act of desperation

My sister and I had an act that couldn't flock,

my sister and I were headed straight for the top,

my sister and I earned a vow a week at least, oh yea

but my sister is now unfortunetly deceased,

I know its sad of course

but a fact is still a fact

and now all that remains is the remains,

of a perfect... double... act

watch this!

Now you have to imagine it with two people,

its swell with two people,

first I'd,

then she'd

then we'd

but I can't do it alone

then she'd

then I'd

then we'd

but I can't do it alone

she'd say what's your sister like

I'd say men

she'd say your the cats meow

then we'd wow the crowd again

when she'd go

I'd go

we'd go

Then those ding song daddys started to roar

whistled, stomped, stamped on the floor,

yelling, screaming, begging for more,

and we'd say ok fellows, keep your socks up,

cause you ain't seen nothing yet

but I simply cannot do it alone,

so what'd ya think huh?

come on you can say

I know you're right the first part is shit

but the second, the second part is really nifty, ok

she'd go

I'd go

we'd go

then those two-bit johnny's did it aproud

to cheer the best attraction in town

they nearly tore the balcony down,

and we'd ok boys we're going home,

but before we go here's a few more part in shots,

and this, this we did in perfect unison

no you see me going through it

you make think there's nothing to it

but I simply cannot do it...
