Oliver (Reprise) lyrics
by Lionel Bart
[WIDOW CORNEY] (Spoken)
We must retrieve that boy, Mr. Bumble!
[MR BUMBLE] (Spoken)
Indeed we must, ma'am, indeed we must!
[MR BUMBLE, WIDOW CORNEY]
Oliver, Oliver
[WIDOW CORNEY]
That was the mite with the large appetite
[MR BUMBLE, WIDOW CORNEY]
Oliver, Oliver
[MR BUMBLE]
Apparently he's from a rich family
[WIDOW CORNEY]
And to think we nearly stupidly went and lost track of him!
[MR BUMBLE]
If the truth were known
We both were delighted at seeing the back of him
[MR BUMBLE, WIDOW CORNEY]
Oliver, Oliver
[MR BUMBLE]
What'll we do?
[WIDOW CORNEY]
We must give him his due
[MR BUMBLE, WIDOW CORNEY]
And we'll praise the day somebody gave us
[MR BUMBLE]
Praise the flag!
[WIDOW CORNEY]
Something to save us!
[MR BUMBLE, WIDOW CORNEY]
Cash rewards
[MR BUMBLE]
Plus a promotion
[WIDOW CORNEY]
Who'd have thought?!
[MR BUMBLE]
Hadn't a notion!
[MR BUMBLE, WIDOW CORNEY]
Praise the lord
Somebody brought us Oliver
