[Fagin]

Is he here?
Mr. Sikes. Has he come yet?
[Bet]
Nancy's inside waiting for him.
[Fagin]
How's business? Nice and brisk?
[Bet]
Don't burn your fingers, will you?
[Fagin]
I never do, my dear.
Not if I can help it.
[Bet]
Nancy!
Nancy, he's back! He's here!
[Fagin]
Beautiful.
Beautiful.
You done well, Bill.
All one job?
Such a professional.
Now, Bill.
Carry cash at this time of night?
All those thieves and robbers lurking in dark alleyways?
I wouldn't dare.
Besides, I've got to price it first.
Nancy's waiting.
Give you a good supper.
Tomorrow, Bill.
My word on it.
[Nancy]
Small pleasures Small pleasures
Who would deny us these?
Gin toddies Large measures
No skimping if you please
I rough it I love it
Life is a game of chance
I never tire of it
Leading a merry dance
If you don't mind having to go without things
It's a fine life
Though it ain't all jolly old pleasure outings
It's a fine life
When you've got someone to love you forget your care and strife
Let the prudes look down on us Let the wide world frown on us
It's a fine, fine life
[Pub Singers]
It's a fine, fine life
[Nancy]
Who cares if straight laces
Sneer at us in the street?
Fine airs and fine graces
Don't have to sin to eat!
[Nancy & Bet]
We wander through London
Who knows what we may find
[Nancy]
There's pockets left undone
On many a behind
If you don't mind taking it like it turns out
It's a fine life
Keep the candle burning until it burns out
[Nancy & The Pub singers]
It's a fine life
[Pub Girls]
Though you sometimes do come by
The occasional black eye
[Nancy]
You can always cover one till he blacks the other one
But you don't
[Nancy & the Pub Girls]
dare cry
No flounces, no feathers
No frills and furbelows
All winds and all weathers
Ain't good for fancy clothes
[Nancy]
These trappings
[Pub Girls]
These tatters
[Nancy]
These we can just afford
[Bet]
What future
What matters
[Nancy & Bet]
We've got our bed and board
[Nancy]
If you don't mind having to deal with Fagin
It's a fine life
[Pub Singers]
It's a fine life
[Nancy]
Though diseased rats threaten to bring the plague in
It's a fine life
[Pub Singers]
It's a fine life
[Nancy & Pub Singers in the back]
And the grass is green and dense
On the right side of the fence
So we take good care of it that we get our share of it
And we don't mean pence
If you don't mind having to like or lump it
It's a fine life
[Nancy]
It's a fine weee!
[Pub Singers]
Though there's no tea sipping or eating crumpets
It's a fine life
[Nancy]
It's a fine life
Not for me the happy home
Happy husband, happy wife
Though it sometimes touches me
For the likes of such as me
Mine's a fine
Fine
Life
[The Pub Singers starts singing "Fine Life" again]
[Bill Sikes]
Bullseye, come here, will you?
Bullseye, come here!
