Bailiff：

Mr Flynn his honor is here

Roxie：

Oh Billy I'm really scared

Billy：

Roxie you got nothing to worry about

It's all a circus kid a three ring circus

These trials the wholeworld all show business

But kid you're working with a star the biggest

Give' em the old razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle' em

Give' em an act with lots of flash in it

And the reaction will be passionate

Give' em the old hocus pocus

Bead and feather' em

How can they see with sequins in their eyes

What if your hinges all are rusting

What if in fact you're just disgusting

Razzle dazzle' em

And they'll never catch wise

Give' em the old razzle dazzle

Billy/company：

Razzle dazzle' em

Give' em a show that's so splendiferous

Billy：

Row after row will grow vociferous

Billy/company：

Give' em the old flim flam flummox

Fool and fracture' em

Billy：

How can they hear the truth above the roar

Billy/company：

Throw' em a fake and a finagle

They'll never know you're just a bagel

Billy：

Razzle dazzle' em

And they'll beg you for more

Billy/company：

Give' em the old double whammy

Daze and dizzy' em

Back since the days of old methuselah

Everyone loves the big bambooz a lah

Give' em the old three ring circus

Stun and stagger' em

When you're in trouble go into your dance

Though you are stiffer than a girder

They'll let you get away with murder

Razzle dazzle' em

And you've got a romance

Give' em the old

Razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle

Billy：

Give' em the old razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle' em

Show' em the first rate sorcerer you are

Long as you keep' em way off balance

How can they spot you've got no talents

Razzle dazzle' em

Billy/company：

Razzle dazzle' em

Razzle dazzle' em

And they'll make you a star
