Cell Block Tango (He Had It Comin') (from "Chicago" soundtrack)

[Intro: Queen Latifah]
Dana Owens aka Queen Latifah, yes I'm here to testify
No, I gotta speak on my behalf, you don't even know
what happened
Can I just tell you what happened?

[Chorus: Macy (Latifah)]
He had it coming (He had it comin')
He only had himself to blame
If you'd a been there, if you'd a seen it
I think that you would have done the same

[Verse 1: Queen Latifah (Macy)]
I mean imagine, why was he hitting his woman?
Why was she taking that?
Now picture her fighting back, picture the ass kicking
Think of his ass flipping down the stairs
And me at the top smiling, he shoulda stopped wilding
Now could you picture me trying to finish him off?
See why I pictured me on this side of the law
High heels leave holes, you'd a thought I was gunning
Now the cops coming, I ain't running
(He had it comin')
Girl you shoulda seen it, shoulda bobbed and weaved
Before the cops came, got a coupla clean hits
In word the [?] couldn't take the abuse
But I couldn't explain that to the state troops
But you know girl, yeah you go girl
Plus I look real cute in orange jump suits
This the story I'm telling and I ain't changing nothing
I just needed you to know Your Honour

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 2: Lil' Kim (Macy)]
Aiight aiight, let's get this over with
Take the mug shot, hurry up the fingerprints
What the blood clot?
Lil' Kim aka Sofia Luchiani
Keep your jump suit, I'm rocking Armani
Yeah, I bust at him once, but that was just a warning
My lawyer will be here with bail money in the morning
I'm not guilty, just trying to protect mine
It ain't my fault he ran into my knife 20 times (He had it comin')
Just my luck the bastard ain't die
What you woulda did if every other day he blacked ya eye?
Broke ya nose 'til it started bleeding
Kicked you in ya ribs, chocked you 'til you stopped breathing
(Fuck) that, I'm sick of bobbing and weaving
Threatening to kill me when I threaten to leave him
I do a bid, 'cause ain't no way
(Nigga) gonna do me like Ike and OJ

[Chorus x2]

[Verse 3: Queen Latifah]
This is for the constantly accused, mentally abused
How many of you been in my shoes before, aiight
Or have you felt you caught the worse case
Putting up wit his tired ass in the first place
Why am I flippin'? I just bought them condoms
I ain't used not one but there was two missing
Get a new mission, how to catch a cheater
If he only use Coast, you shouldn't smell Lever
If you know he don't smoke, you shouldn't smell reefer
If you catch him cheating you shouldn't yell either
Run up on him quietly, took him out silently
It might sound cruel, but you gotta love the irony
So explain that, just came back off a trip
And I come home to this, please
He ain't followed the guidelines
So forgive me Your Honour, he ran into my knife five times

[Chorus x3]
