And now, the six Merry Murderesses of the Cook County Jail in their rendition of The Cell Block Tango

Lipschitz!
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
Pop!

Uh uh!

You know how people have these little habits
That get you down
Like Bernie,
Bernie, he liked to chew gum, no, not chew, Pop!
So I came home this one day and I′m really irritated
And I'm looking for a lil' bit of sympathy
And there′s Bernie layin′ 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
Into his head
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
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, and we′d have dinner
And then I found out,
Single, he told me
Single, my butt!
Not only was he married, oh no, he had six wives
One of those Mormons, you know
So that night, when he came home from work
I fixed him his drink as usual
You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic
He had it coming (Pop! Six! Squish!)
He had it coming (Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
He took a flower (Pop! Six! Squish!)
In its prime (Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
And then he used it (Pop!) and he abused it (Six!)
It was a murder (Squish!) but not a crime (Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
Now, I′m standing in the kitchen
Carvin' up the chicken for dinner, mindin′ my own business
And in storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage
"You been doin' the milkman!"
He says, he was crazy and he kept on screamin′
"You been doin' the milkman!"
And then he ran into my knife
He ran into my knife ten times
The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
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 that we were wrong?
Could you tell us that we were wrong?
