My Own Best Friend Lyrics

Chicago My Own Best Friend

Roxie: There's only one person who can help ya now, Roxie
Velma: There's only one person you can count on now, Velma

And now, Miss Roxie Hart and Miss Velma Kelly sing a song
Of unrelenting determination and unmitigated ego

One thing I know
One thing I know
And I've always known
And I've always known
I am my own
I am my own
Best friend

Baby's alive
Baby's alive
But baby's alone
But baby's alone
And baby's her own
And baby's her own
Best friend

Many's the guy
Who told me he cares
But they were scratchin' my back
'Cause I was scratchin' theirs

And trusting to luck
And trusting to luck
That's only for fools
Only for fools
I play in a game
I play in a game
Where I make the rules

And rule number one
From here to the end
Is I am my own best friend'

Three musketeers
Who never say die
Are standing here this minute
Me
Me
Myself
Myself
And I
And I

If life is a school I'll pass every test
If life is a game I'll play it the best
'Cause I wont give in and I'll never bend
And I am my own best friend
