[The Artful Dodger]
What you starin' at?
Haven't you never seen a toff?
[Oliver]
No, never. I'm sorry, I didn't...
[The Artful Dodger]
Oh That's all right.
Hungry?
[Oliver]
Yes, I am.
I've come a long way. I've been walking for seven days.
[The Artful Dodger]
Been running away from the beak, have you?
[Oliver]
The what?
[The Artful Dodger]
Don't say you don't know what the beak is me flash mate.
[Oliver]
It's a bird's mouth, isn't it?
[The Artful Dodger]
My eyes! How green can you get?
For your information, a beak's a magistrate.
Who you running away from then? Your old man?
[Oliver]
No. I'm an orphan. I've come to London to make my fortune.
[The Artful Dodger]
Oh! You have, have you?
Got any lodgings? Money?
[Oliver]
Not a farthing. Do you live in London?
[The Artful Dodger]
Watch it!
I suppose you want someplace to sleep tonight, eh?
[Oliver]
Do you know of anywhere?
[The Artful Dodger]
As it so happens, I know a respectable old gentleman.
What'll give you lodgings for nothing.
[Oliver]
Really?
[The Artful Dodger]
And never ask for change if any other gentleman he knows introduces you.
And don't he know me?
[Oliver]
He must be a very kind old gentleman.
[The Artful Dodger]
Oh, yes, he's very kind.
And I'm a particular favorite of his.
Well, if you're coming along, I better know who you are.
[Oliver]
My name is Oliver. Oliver Twist.
[The Artful Dodger]
And mine's Jack Dawkins...
better known among me more intimate friends as the Artful Dodger.
[Oliver]
Pleased to meet you Mr Dodger. You sure the old gentleman won't mind?
[The Artful Dodger]
Mind?
Consider yourself at home
Consider yourself one of the family
I've taken to you so strong
It's clear we're going to get along
Consider yourself well in
Consider yourself part of the furniture
There isn't a lot to spare
Who cares Whatever we've got we share
If it should chance to be we should see some harder days
Empty larder days Why grouse
Always a chance we'll meet somebody to foot the bill
Then the drinks are on the house
Consider yourself our mate
We don't want to have no fuss
For after some consideration we can state
Consider yourself one of us
Consider yourself
[Oliver]
At home?
[The Artful Dodger]
Consider yourself
[Oliver]
One of the family?
[The Artful Dodger]
We've taken to you
[Oliver]
So strong?
[The Artful Dodger]
It's clear we're going to get along
Consider yourself
[Oliver]
Well in?
[The Artful Dodger]
Consider yourself part of the furniture
There isn't a lot to spare
Who cares Whatever we've got we share
[First and Second ladies]
Nobody tries to be lah-di-dah and uppity
There's a cup of tea for all
[The Artful Dodger]
Only it's wise to be handy with a rolling pin
When the landlord comes to call
[Street Vendors]
Consider yourself our mate
We don't want to have no fuss
For after some consideration we can state
Consider yourself one of us
Consider yourself at home
Consider yourself one of the family
We've taken to you so strong
It's clear we're going to get along
Now, hammer up, hammer down! Hammer up, hammer down!
Lift! Drop!
Hop! Not too slow, boys.
Hammer up, hammer down! Lift! Down! Up! Down! Lift! Drop!
[Three Chimney Sweeps]
Help!
Help!
[Street Vendors]
If it should chance to be we should see some harder days
