We Both Reached for the Gun
Matron: Mr Flynn, the reporters are here
Flynn: Let them in, Buch
(Overlappping questions)
Act like a dummy
You sit on my lap
And I'll do all the talking
(Flynn is talking as Roxy from now on)
Announcer: Mr Billy Flynn sings the press conferance rag
Notice how his mouth never moves

Journalists: Where did you come from?
Flynn: Missisipi
Journalists: And your parents?
Flynn: Very wealthy
Journalists: Where are they now?
Flynn: Six feet under
But she was granted one more star
The convent of the sacred heart
Journalists: When did ya get here
Flynn: 1920
Journalists: How old were you?
Flynn: Don't remember
Journalists: Then what happened?
Flynn: I met Amos
And he stole my heart away
Convinced me to elope one day
Sunshine: A convent girl
Oh, and a runaway marrige
This is going to be too terrible
You poor dear
Journalists: Who's Fred Casely?
Flynn: My ex boyfriend
Journalists: Why ya shoot him?
Flynn: I was leaving
Journalists: Was he angry?
Flynn: Like a madman
Still I said 'Fred move along'
Flynn (as himself): She knew that she was doing wrong
Journalists: Then describe it?
Flynn: He came towards me
Journalists: With the pistol?
Flynn: From my
