Текст (слова) песни: Oliver! - You`ve Got To Pick-a-pocket Or Two

 
[FAGIN (spoken)] 
You see, Oliver... 
 
[sung] In this life, one thing counts 
In the bank, large amounts 
I`m afraid these don`t grow on trees, 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two 
 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys, 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[BOYS] 
Large amounts don`t grow on trees. 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[FAGIN (spoken)] 
Let`s show Oliver how it`s done, shall we, my dears? 
 
[sung] Why should we break our backs 
Stupidly paying tax? 
Better get some untaxed income 
Better to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[BOYS] 
Why should we all break our backs? 
Better pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[FAGIN (spoken)] 
Who says crime doesn`t pay? 
 
[sung] Robin Hood, what a crook! 
Gave away, what he took. 
Charity`s fine, subscribe to mine. 
Get out and pick-a-pocket or two 
 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[BOYS] 
Robin Hood was far too good 
He had to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[FAGIN] 
Take a tip from Bill Sikes 
He can whip what he likes. 
I recall, he started small 
He had to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[BOYS] 
We can be like old Bill Sikes 
If we pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[FAGIN (spoken)] 
Stop thief! 
 
Dear old gent passing by 
Something nice takes his eye 
Everything`s clear, attack the rear 
Get in and pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[BOYS] 
Have no fear, attack the rear 
Get in and pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[FAGIN] 
When I see someone rich, 
Both my thumbs start to itch 
Only to find some peace of mind 
We have to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two, boys 
You`ve got to pick-a-pocket or two. 
 
[BOYS] 
Just to find some peace of mind 
 
[FAGIN AND BOYS] 
We have to pick-a-pocket or two!
