@Markulatum I was wondering the same thing so I looked it up, and it says the same on every page, she says "What am doing here? They say my famous lover held down my husband while I chopped off his head. But it isn't true, I am innocent. I don't know why Uncle Sam says I did it. I tried to explain it at the police station but they did not understand me."
@snowyowl10 She basically says that people were saying she chopped her lover's head off. She tried explaining her story to the police but they wouldn't believe her.
@nanakifreak I don't remember exactly, but it's something like "What am I doing here? They said I had someone hold down my husband while I chopped off his head. I tried to explain at the police station, but they couldn't understand me. I don't know why Uncle Sam says I did it."
Thank you so much for the translation! I figured that she was innocent because she was the only one who pulled a white scarf instead of red material of various lengths. And of course because she was the one who hung...which would have fit with her being "foreign".
but my favorite is still having someone run into your knife 10 times.
Can anyone PLEASE tell me why the catchcry for the third woman is "squish" when she never actually says it in the song?! Is it different in the stageshow? Is she not actually saying "squish"? I've never been able to figure that out.
@mirros82 erm, not to be gross, but...thats the sound it makes when you stab someone in the stomach. ten times. watch the patriot if you dont believe me lol.
I adore the use of the red scarves for the symbolism, and how the Russian woman only has a white scarf, showing she's innocent, even though she's the only one executed in the movie.
Catharine Zeeta Jones has such an amazing voice. i love how you can hear her voice over the others sometimes during the chorus. She has so much talent.
The hungarian translation is: What am doing here? They say my famous lover held down my husband while I chopped off his head. But it isn't true, I am innocent. I don't know why Uncle Sam says I did it. I tried to explain it at the police station but they didn't understand me.
now im standing in the kitchen carving up the chicken for dinner minding my own business... wilbur storms in started up..and then he ran into my knife ten times.. well he sort of trip on my knife ten times.. he had coming.. he should have left well enough alone!!
this is like the best part of the whole movie when i saw this i couldnt keep my eyes off it i love this part its my favorite part of the whole movie and song!
for those of you wondering about Hunyack (the Hungarian woman) She says, "What am I doing here? They say my famous tenant held down my husband and I chopped his head off. But it's not true. I am innocent. I don't know why Uncle Sam says I did it. I tried to explain at the police station but they didn't understand."
If you listen carefully while she's speaking Hungarian, you can hear her say "Uncle Sam."
@USA1977 There are questions as to whether it says "tenant" or "lover" , as apparently the word "lakem" which appears in all written versions of the song that I can find...is not a Hungarian word. It is either "lelkem" (lover) or "lakom" (boarder or tenant). Personally, I believe 'lelkem" makes more sense.
@urafunnykid8D she's a romanian- she can't speak english- therefore she's the only innocent one, but cannot tell the story behind it. In the musical she is actually the first woman to ever hang in the city of Chicago, which makes the "hanging crime" of Roxy's more dramatic...
