[Verse 1]
And now, the six [A]married
[Bb]murderesses of the Cook [A]County Jail
In their rendition [Bb]of
[F]the cell block tango
[A]Pop! Six! Squish! Uh [Bb]uh!
[A]Cic[Bb]ero! Lip[A]schitz!
Pop! Six! Squish! Uh uh! Cicero!

Pop! [Dm]Six! [Edim]Squish!
[A]Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!
[D]Pop! Six! Squish! Uh uh! Cic[Edim]ero! Lip[A]schitz!
He [Dm]had it [D]coming
He [A]had it [D]coming
He [A]only [D]had himself to blame
If you'd a [G]been there, if [D]you'd a [Gm]seen it
I [D]betcha [Bb]you would've [A]done the same
[D]Pop[Dm]! Six[Bb]! Squish!
[Edim]Uh uh! Cicero! [A]Lip[D]schitz!

[Dm]You how [D]people have [Dm]these little
[D]habits that getcha down
Like, Bernie, Bernie he liked to chew gum
[Dm]No, not [G]chew, [Dm]pop![Gm]
So I [Bb]came home [A]this one day
and I'm really ir[Dm]ritated
And I'm looking for [D]a little sympathy
And there's Bernie, lying on the couch,
drinking a beer and chewing
No, not chewing, popping!
So I said to him, [G]I said [D]you pop that [Bb]gum one more time,
[A]and[Dm] he did[D]
So I took the shotgun off the wall
and I fired two warnings shots
Into his [A]head
He had it [D]coming
He [A]had it [D]coming
He [A]only [D]had himself to blame
If you'd a [G]been there, if you'd a heard it
I [Gm]betcha [Bb]you would've [A]done the s[D]ame
[Dm][Edim][A][D][Dm][Edim][A]
[D]
I meet Ezechiel Young from Salt
Lake City about two years
And he told me he was single and
we hit it off right [G]away
So we started living togeth[Gm]er
He'd go to work, he'd [Bb]come home,
[A]I'd fix him [D]a drink, and we'd have [Dm]dinner
[D]And then I found out single,
he told me, single my butt
Not only was he [G]married, oh no,
he had [Gm]six wives
[Bb]One [A]of those Mormans, you [Dm]know
So that [D]night when he came home from work,
I fixed him his as drink, as usual
You know, some [Bb]guys just
can't hold their arsenic
He had it [Eb]coming (Pop! Six! Squish!
Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
He [Bb]had it [Eb]coming (Pop! Six!
Squish! Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
He [Bb]took [Eb]a flower in its prime (Pop! Six!
Squish! Uh uh! Cicero! Lipschitz!)
And [Bb]then he [Ab]used it (pop!) and
he ab[Abm]used it (six!)
It was a [B]murder, but [Bb]not a c[Eb]rime (squish, uh uh, Cicero,
[Ebm]lipsch[B]itz!)
Now I'm stand[Bb]ing in the kitchen,
carving up the chicken for dinner, minding my own business
In storms my husband Wilbert
in a jealous rage
You've been doing the milkman he says,
he was crazy and he kept on screaming
You've been doing the milkman
And then he ran into my knife,
he ran into my knife [D]ten [Bb]times[B][Bb][Bb]
[Dm]The dirty bum,[A] bum, bum, bum, bum
The dirty [Bb]bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
They had it [Eb]coming (they had
it coming)
They had it coming (they had
it coming)
They had it coming (they had it
coming) all along (all along)
'Cause if they [Ab]used us ('cause if they used us) and
they ab[Abm]used us (and they abused us)
How could you [B]tell us that
[Bb]we were wr[Eb]ong
Could you [B]tell us that [Bb]we were w[Eb]rong
