• Pick A Pocket Or Two (Oliver! 1968)

FAGIN: Let's show Oliver how to do it, my dears. You see, Oliver,
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: Why should we break our backs
Stupidly paying tax?
Better get some untaxed income:
Better pick a pocket or two.
You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys,
You've got to pick a pocket or two.
Sing, boys!
BOYS : Why should we all break our backs?
Better pick a pocket or two.
FAGIN : Charlie, take your hat off while you're in class!

Robin Hood, what a crook:
Gave away all 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.
Get out and pick a pocket or two.
FAGIN: Watch the beat, boys!

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: Pay attention!

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
I 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: You have to pick a pocket or two!
