[REPORTERS]

Where'd you come from?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Mississippi

[REPORTERS]

And your parents?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Very wealthy.

[REPORTERS]

Where are they now?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Six feet under.

[BILLY]

But she was granted one more start

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

The convent of The Sacred Heart!

[REPORTERS]

When'd you get here?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

1920

[REPORTERS]

How old were you?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Don't remember

[REPORTERS]

Then what happened?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

I met Amos

And he stole my heart away

Convinced me to elope one day

[MARY SUNSHINE (spoken)]

A convent girl! A run-away marriage!

oh, it's too terrible. You poor, poor dear.

[REPORTERS]

Who's Fred Casely?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

My ex-boyfriend.

[REPORTERS]

Why'd you shoot him?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

I was leavin'.

[REPORTERS]

Was her angry?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Like a madman

Still I said, Fred, move along.

[BILLY]

She knew that she was doin' wrong.

[REPORTERS]

Then describe it.

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

He came toward me.

[REPORTERS]

With a pistol?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

From my bureau.

[REPORTERS]

Did you fight him?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Like a tiger.

[BILLY]

He had strength and she had none.

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

And 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.

Yes, it's perfectly understandable

Comprehensible. Comprehensible

Not a bit reprehensible

It's so defensible!

[REPORTERS]

How're you feeling?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Very frightened

[REPORTERS]

Are you sorry?

[ROXIE]

Are you kidding?

[REPORTERS]

What's you're statement?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

All I'd say is

Though my choo-choo jumped the track

I'd give my life to bring him back

[REPORTERS]

And?

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Stay away from

[REPORTERS]

[BILLY (as Roxie)]

Jazz and liquor

[REPORTERS]
