Chicago
Roxie: I always wanted to have my name in all the papers. Before I met Amos I used to date this well-to-do ugly bootlegger. He used to like to take me out and show me off. Ugly guys like to do that. Once it said in the paper, "Gangland's Al Capelli seen at Chez Vito with cute blonde chorine." That was me. I clipped it and saved it. You know, all my life I wanted to have my own act. But noooo, no, no, no, it's always no, they always turned me down. One big world full of no! And then Amos came along. Safe, sweet Amos. Who never says no. Ohh. I've never done this before, but you know, it is such a special night and you are such a great audience! And, and, I just really feel like I can talk to you, you know? So forget what you've read in the papers, and forget what you've heard on the radio because, because, because, I'm gonna tell you the truth. Not that the truth really matters, but I'm gonna tell you anyway. In the bed department, Amos was....zero. I mean, when he made love to me, it was like, it was like he was fixing a carborator or something. "I love ya, honey, I love ya!" Anyway, I started fooling around....and then I started screwing around, which is fooling around without dinner. Then I met Fred Casely, who said he could get me into the vaudeville, but that didn't quite work out like I planned. I guess it didn't really work out too great for Fred either. So I gave up with the whole vaudeville idea, 'cause you gotta figure after all these years-- opportunities just pass you by. But it ain't, oh no no no no, but it ain't. And now, if this Flynn guy gets me off, with all this publicity, I got me a world full of YES!
