Oliver! (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Oliver!
For what you are about to receive
May the Lord make you truly thankful
Amen
Please, Sir, I want some more
What?
Please, Sir, I want some more
More?
Catch him
Snatch him
Hold him
Scold him
Pounce him
Trounce him
Pick him up and bounce him
Wait
Before we put the boy to task
May I be so curious as to ask his name?
Oliver
Oliver, Oliver
Never before has a boy wanted more
Oliver, Oliver
Won't ask for more when he knows what's in store
There's a dark, thin winding stairway without any banister
Which we'll throw him down
And feed him on cockroaches served in a canister
Oliver, Oliver
What will he do when he's turned black and blue
He will curse the day somebody named him Oliver
Oliver, Oliver
Never before has a boy wanted more
Oliver, Oliver
He won't ask for more when he knows what's in store
There's a sooty chimney long overdue for a sweeping out
Which we'll push him up
And one day next year with the rats he'll be creeping out
Oliver, Oliver
What will her do in this terrible stew?
He will rue the day somebody named him
Oliver
May the Lord make you truly thankful
Amen
Please, Sir, I want some more
What?
Please, Sir, I want some more
More?
Catch him
Snatch him
Hold him
Scold him
Pounce him
Trounce him
Pick him up and bounce him
Wait
Before we put the boy to task
May I be so curious as to ask his name?
Oliver
Oliver, Oliver
Never before has a boy wanted more
Oliver, Oliver
Won't ask for more when he knows what's in store
There's a dark, thin winding stairway without any banister
Which we'll throw him down
And feed him on cockroaches served in a canister
Oliver, Oliver
What will he do when he's turned black and blue
He will curse the day somebody named him Oliver
Oliver, Oliver
Never before has a boy wanted more
Oliver, Oliver
He won't ask for more when he knows what's in store
There's a sooty chimney long overdue for a sweeping out
Which we'll push him up
And one day next year with the rats he'll be creeping out
Oliver, Oliver
What will her do in this terrible stew?
He will rue the day somebody named him
Oliver
