At Mr. Brownlow's house, Oliver, cleaned up amid unaccustomed luxury,
looks out of the window to see street sellers.

And put it in a box for me?

Whenever things go wrong,
And I would keep it as a treasure
To last my whole life long.

I'm so high I swear I could fly.

ALL: Who will buy this wonderful morning?
Such a sky you never did see!
Who will tie it up with a ribbon
And put it in a box for me?
There'll never be a day so sunny,
It could not happen twice.
Where is the man with all the money?
It's cheap at half the price!
Who will buy this wonderful feeling?
I'm so high I swear I could fly.
Me, oh my! I don't want to lose it
So what am I to do
To keep the sky so blue?
OLIVER: There must be someone who will buy
ROSE-SELLER: Who will buy my sweet red roses?
Two blooms for a penny!
Brownlow has noticed a likeness between Oliver and his daughter Agnes.
Brownlow has some books to be returned to a bookseller and decides to
send Oliver on this errand. When Oliver emerges from the house, Nancy
pretends he's her little brother. Oliver doesn't want to go with her,
but Sikes appears, grabs him and takes him back to Fagin's. |
