[NANCY (spoken)]Plummy and slam![FAGIN (spoken)]Nancy! Wake up boys! The ladies is `ere.[DODGER (spoken)]Ladies?! Cor! `Ark at him![NANCY (spoken)]`Ere, we`ll have less of that if you don`t mind!`Ere, so where`s the gin, then, Fagin?[FAGIN (spoken)]All in moderation, my dear, all in moderation.Too much gin can be a dangerous thing for a pure, young girl.[NANCY (spoken)]Ooh, and what`s wrong with a bit of danger then, eh, Mr. Fagin?After all it`s about the only excitement we get.And who would deny us that small pleasure?[sung] Small pleasures, small pleasuresWho would deny us these?Gin toddies -- large measuress --No skimpin` if you please!I rough it, I love itLife is a game of chance.I never tire of it --Leading this merry dance.If you don`t mind having to go without thingsIt`s a fine life.[ALL]It`s a fine life.[NANCY]Tho` it ain`t all jolly old pleasure outings...It`s a fine life[ALL]It`s a fine life.[NANCY]When you got someone to loveYou forget your cares and strifeLet the prudes look down on usLet the wide world frown on usIt`s a fine,[ALL]Fine life![NANCY (spoken)]Ain`t that right, Bet? Go on, you tell `em girl.[BET]Who cares if straightlacesSneer at us in the street?Fine airs and fine graces[NANCY]Don`t have to sin to eat.[BOTH]We wander through London[NANCY]Who knows what we many find?[BOTH]There`s pockets left undoneOn many a behind.[NANCY]If you don`t mind taking it as it turns out,It`s a fine life![ALL]It`s a fine life![NANCY]Keep the candle burning until it burns outIt`s a fine life.[ALL]It`s a fine life.[NANCY]Though you sometimes do come byThe occasional black eyeYou can always cover one`Til he blacks the other oneBut you don`t dare cry.[BET]No flounces, no feathersNo frills and furbelowsAll winds and all weathersAin`t good for fancy clo`es[NANCY (spoken)]That`s true.[sung] These trappings,[BET]These ta`ers[BOTH]These we can just afford.[NANCY]What future?[BET]What ma`ers?[BOTH]We`ve got our bed and board.[NANCY]If you don`t mind having to deal with FaginIt`s a fine life![ALL]It`s a fine life![NANCY]Though diseased rats threaten to bring the plague inIt`s a fine life![ALL]It`s a fine life![NANCY]But the grass is green and denseOn the right side of the `fence`.[BOTH]And we take good care of itThat we get our share of itAnd we don`t mean pence.No! If you don`t mind having to like or lump it...It`s a fine life[ALL]It`s a fine life![NANCY]Tho` there`s no tea-supping and eating crumpetIt`s a fine life![ALL]It`s a fine life![NANCY]Not for me, the happy homeHappy husband, happy wifeTho` it sometimes touches me......For the likes of such as me...Mine`s a fine...[ALL]Fine... life!
