Reviewing the Situation-The Original London West End Cast

Reviewing The Situation - The Original London West End Cast Written by：Bart A man's got a heart hasn't he Joking apart hasn't he And tho' I'd be the first one to say that I wasn't a saint I'm finding it hard to be really as black as they paint I'm reviewing the situation Can a fellow be a villain all his life All the trials and tribulations Better settle down and get myself a wife And a wife would cook and sew for me And come for me and go for me And go for me and nag at me The fingers she would wag at me The money she would take from me A misery she'd make from me I think I'd better think it out again A wife you can keep anyway I'd rather sleep anyway Left without anyone in the world And I'm starting from now So how to win friends and to influence people So how I'm reviewing the situation I must quickly look up ev'ryone I know Titled people with a station Who can help me make a real impressive show I will own a suite at carriages And run a fleet of carriages And wave at all the duchesses With friendliness as much as is Befitting of my new estate Good morrow to you magistrate I think I'd better think it out again So where shall I go somebody Who do I know nobody All my dearest companions Have always been villains and thieves So at my time of life I should start turning over new leaves I'm reviewing the situation If you want to eat you've got to earn a bob Is it such a humiliation For a robber to perform an honest job So a job I'm getting possibly I wonder who my boss will be I wonder if he'll take to me What bonuses he'll make to me I'll start at eight and finish late At normal rate and all but wait I think I'd better think it out again What happens when I'm seventy Must come a time seventy When you're old and its cold And who cares if you live or you die Your one consolation's the money You may have put by I'm reviewing the situation I'm a bad 'un and a bad 'un I shall stay You'll be seeing no transformation But it's wrong to be a rogue in ev'ry way I don't want nobody hurt for me Or made to do the dirt for me This rotten life is not for me It's getting far too hot for me Don't want no one to rob for me But who will find a job for me There is no in between for me But who will change the scene for me I think I'd better think it out again Hey
