And never ask for the change.

That is, if any other gentleman he knows

introduces you.

And don't he know me?

He must be a very kind old gentlemen.

Oh, yes, yes, he's very kind.

And I'm a particular favorite of his.

Well, now, if you're coming along,

I'd better know who you are.

My name's Oliver. Oliver Twist.

And mine's Jack Dawkins.

Better known among me more

intimate friends as the Artful Dodger.

Pleased to meet you, Mr. Dodger.

Sure the old gentleman won't mind?

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

Here!

There isn't a lot to spare

Who cares?

Whatever we 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

At home?

Consider yourself

One of the family?

We'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 got, we share

Nobody tries to be la-di-da and uppity

There's a cup o' tea for all

Only it's wise to be handy

with a rolling pin

When the landlord comes to call!

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

Hammer up, hammer down!

Hammer up, hammer down!

Lift, drop! Lift, down!

Up! Not too slow, boys. There you go, boys.

Hammer up, hammer down! Lift, down!

Up! Out! Down! Lift! Drop!

Hammer up! Hammer down! Lift, down!

- Help!

- Help!

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!

Are on the house

Are on the house, are on the house

Are on the house, are on the house

Are on the house

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

Consider yourself well in

Consider yourself part of the furniture

There isn't a lot to spare

Who cares? Whatever we got we share!

Nobody tries to be la-di-da and uppity

There's a cup o' tea for all

Only it's wise to be handy

with a rolling pin

When the landlord comes to call!
