You’ve Got to Pick a Pocket or Two Lionel Bart

This life
One thing counts
In the bank
Large amounts
I'm afraid these don't grow on trees
You've got to pick a pocket or two
You've got to pick a pocket or two
Boys!
You've got to pick a pocket or two

Large amounts don't grow on trees
You've got to pick a pocket or two

Why should we break our backs?
Stupidly
Paying tax
Better get some untaxed income
Better pick a pocket or two
You've got to pick a pocket or two
Boys!
You've got to pick a pocket or two

Why should we all break our backs
Better pick a pocket or two

Robin Hood
What a crook
Gave away what he took

Get out and pick a pocket or two
You've got to pick a pocket or two
Boys!
You've got to pick a pocket or two
