[00:01.338][EMCEE, spoken]Ladies and gentleman, Miss Velma Kelly in an act of desperation
[00:06.453][VELMA]My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop
[00:11.026]My sister and I were headed straight for the top
[00:15.366]My sister and I earned a thou' a week at least... oh, yeah
[00:20.237]But my sister is now unfortunately deceased
[00:25.853]I know it's sad, of course, but a fact is still a fact
[00:31.101]And now all that remains is the remains of a perfect... double... act!
[00:43.202](spoken)Watch this
[00:51.061](sung)First I'd, tchbasmovi tchbasmovi and that's the drums
[00:55.711]Then she'd, woun-woun woun-woun, saxophone
[00:59.969]Then we'd... Together!
[01:04.760]But I can't do it alone
[01:07.885]Then she'd...
[01:12.238]Then I'd...
[01:17.135]Then we'd...
[01:21.753]But I can't do it alone
[01:24.715]She'd say "what's your sister like?"
[01:27.878]I'd say "men" ya ya ya
[01:30.993]She'd say "you're the cat's meow"
[01:34.175]Then we'd wow the crowd again
[01:36.894]When she'd go...
[01:41.703]I'd go...
[01:46.196]We'd go...
[01:56.419]And then those two-bit Johnnies did it up brown
[02:00.418]To cheer the best attraction in town
[02:03.499]They nearly tore the balcony down
[02:06.633](spoken)And we'd say "Ok, guys. Ok, fellas, we're goin' home, but here's a few more partin' shots"
[02:13.543]And this—this we did in perfect unison...
[02:27.800](sung)Now you see me going through it
[02:31.083]You may think there's nothing to it
[02:34.123]But I simply cannot do it
[02:40.419]Alone
