What did you do?

She won't peach on nobody no more.

You shouldn't have done that.

She peached? Are you sure?

Well, she must have done, mustn't she?

She was handing the boy over

to Brownlow on the bridge.

He was there, waiting for her.

Then what did you come here for?

Get out! Do you hear me? Get out!

I want money!

How much? 10? 20?

Not all of it!

If anyone at all

should come here asking for me...

They won't find me here.

You don't think I'm going to stand here

and wait for them, do you?

It's him.

Bull's-eye.

Quick, boys! All of you!

We're changing lodgings!

Nancy, I loved you, didn't I?

Look what you've done to me.

Bill! Why make things worse? Leave him!

It's me they're after!

But they won't go for me.

Not with the boy close, they won't.

So you keep out of it!

Out the back way. Come on!

Look! Up there!

It's him! It's Bill Sikes! It's him for sure!

And the boy!

- Murderer!

- Villain!

Scoundrel!

The hangman's waiting for you, Sikes!

Get back! Get back!

Get back!

The other street! The other street, quickly!

- After you, Fagin.

- After you, Dodger.

Don't bother with that. Get out of it.

Hey, Fagin, what do I do?

Live up to your name, Dodger.

Dodge about. Sharpish!

Get up there!

Now, then. You loop the rope

over the end of the beam there.

That's right.

That's good.

Can somebody change?

It's possible

Maybe it's strange

But it's possible

All my dearest companions and treasures

I've left them behind

I'll turn a leaf over

And who can tell what I may find?

Yes, young man?

And do I have the honor

of your acquaintance?

Lined?

Only the best.

Lovely workmanship, ain't it?

I'm reviewing the situation

Once the villain, you're a villain

to the end

Your light fingers

Your inspiration

What a team!

Am I your partner?

More a friend

For your talent is employable

So make your life enjoyable

A world with pockets open wide

Awaits your whim to grope inside

Collections undetectable

We might retire respectable

Together till our dying day

The living proof that crime can pay

I think we'll have to think it out again!

Consider yourself well in

Consider yourself

part of the furniture

There isn't a lot to spare

Who cares?

Whatever we've got we share

Consider yourself our mate

We don't want

to have no fuss

For after some

consideration we can state

Consider yourself

Consider yourself

one of us
