It's a Fine Life (Reprise)

Alright, alright, we've got him back! What's the matter with you?
Tell 'em about us, would you boy?
I won't stand by and see you done, Bill!
Why, Nancy, you're wonderful tonight, such talent, what an actress!

Am I? Well take care I don't overdo it
Because if I do I'm gonna put my mark on some of you and I don't care if I hang for it!
You? Do you know who you are and what you are?
Ah yeah, I know all about that, you don't have to tell me!
A fine one for the boy to make a friend of, you are!
Loyal, me, I am, and I wish I'd been shot down
Dead before lendin' an 'and in bringin' him back here!
'Cause after tonight he's a liar and a thief and all that's bad
And ain't that enough for you without beating him half to death

Come, come, civil words, Nancy, civil words
Civil words? Yeah, you deserve 'em from me, don't ya?!
'Cause I was out on the streets for you when I was a child half his age
And I've been on the same train and the same service for 15 years
And don't you forget it!
Well, what if you have? It's your living, ain't it?
Come 'ere!

Some living, some living!
What you deserve, you get!
No getting, all giving!
Must we have murders yet?
There'll be murders, there'll be terror
Such as you've never seen (Lord help me! No violence)
Would you please tell my love where I've been (and no in between, no violence!)

If you don't mind making a mate of Satan
It's a fine life! (Fine life, my life say it again)
If you don't mind keeping the angels waiting
It's a fine life! (Fine life, fine life)
Come, better do as you are told (watch out!)
Bill has got a heart of gold
Better not to mess with it
Better make the best of it
It's a fine (fine, fine, fine)
Life!
