And we don't mean pence. We wander through London Who knows what we many find? Yeah I put a step in your bones. It's a fine life When you got someone to love You forget your cares and strife Let the prudes look down on us Let the wide world frown on us It's a fine Fine life! For KING & COUNTRY - The Proof Of Your Love. Love is on a side of the highway. I never tire of it Leading this merry dance. On the right side of the fence. Sneer at us in the straight.
You can always cover one. There's pockets left undone On many a behind. If you dont mind taking it like it turns out. When you got someone to love. Though it sometimes touches me. Not for me, the happy home Happy husband, happy wife Tho' it sometimes touches me..... the likes of such as me... Though you sometimes do come by The occasional black eye You can always cover one 'Til he blacks the other one But you don't dare cry. Who cares if straightlaces. Leading this merry dance. For the likes of such as me. If you don't mind having to deal with Fagin It's a fine life! Mine's a fine... Fine... life!
Life is a game of chance. Who knows what we may find. All winds and all weathers. If you don't mind taking it as it turns out, It's a fine life! But the grass is green and dense. For KING & COUNTRY - Joy To The World. There's pockets left undone. Dont have to sin to eat. Andra And The BackBone - Mimpi Yang Terbunuh.
No flounces, no feathers No frills and furbelows All winds and all weathers Ain't good for fancy clothes These trappings, These tatters These we can just afford. The Herald Angels Sing. Andra And The BackBone - Seperti Hidup Kembali. No skimpin if you please! Who cares if straightlaces Sneer at us in the street? For KING & COUNTRY - O God Forgive Us. For KING & COUNTRY - It's Not Over Yet (The Encore). It's a fine life It's a fine life! For KING & COUNTRY - Won't You Come (Interlude). For KING & COUNTRY - Hark! We've got our bed and board.
Feels like I'm stuck in a movie. Though diseased rats threaten to bring the plague in It's a fine life! Tho' there's no tea-supping and eating crumpet It's a fine life! Keep the candle burning until it burns out It's a fine life. Let the prudes look down on us.
Though you sometimes do come by. Cash or coal, Heart or soul. Worry's flying in the fast lane. Gin toddies, large measures. And we take good care of it That we get our share of it And we don't mean pence. Lyrics powered by More from Lional Bart's "Oliver": The New Theatre, London, June 1960: Original Cast Recording.
And you just can't help yourself but wonder how we all forget. Jesus stranded with a flat tire. These we can just afford. No flounces, no feathers. Though there's no tea-sipping and eating crumpet. Small pleasures, small pleasures. With his thumb in the sky. And He's grinning ear to ear and whispering these words under His breath. For KING & COUNTRY - Little Drummer Boy. For KING & COUNTRY - Glorious. For KING & COUNTRY - Burn The Ships.
If you don't mind having to like or lump it... Small pleasures, small pleasures Who would deny us these? Till he blacks the other one. Aint good for fancy clothes. But you dont dare cry. For KING & COUNTRY - Into The Silent Night. For KING & COUNTRY - God Only Knows. Tho' it ain't all jolly old pleasure outings...
