OOM-PAH-PAH- Oliver (the play)
At the Three Cripples public house that evening, as the customers
drink and have a raucous good time, the landlord calls upon Nancy to
sing the "old school song":
NANCY: All right! All right! 'Ere we go then!
There's a little ditty
They're singin' in the city,
Especially when they've been
On the gin or the beer.
If you've got the patience,
Your own imaginations
'll tell you just exactly what you want to hear:
ALL: Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
That's how it goes,
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
Ev'ryone knows:

Lionel Bart is the artist.
The song is Oom-Pah-Pah
It goes like:
Oom-pah-pah, oom-pah-pah
There's a little ditty they're singing in the city
Especially when they've been in the gin or the beer
With a little patience your own imaginations
Will tell you just exactly what you want to hear
Oom-pah-pah, oom-pah-pah
That's how it goes
Oom-pah-pah, oom pah-pah
Every one knows
They all suppose what they want to suppose
When they hear oom pah-pah
Mr. Percy Snodgrass would often have an odd glass
But never when he thought anybody could see
Secretly he'd buy it and drink it on the quiet
And dream he was an earl with a girl on each knee
Oom-pah-pah...
What is the cause of his red shiny nose
Could it be oom pah-pah
Pretty little Sally goes walking down the alley
Displays her pretty ankles to all of the men
They can see her garters but not for free and gratis
An inch or two and then she know when to say when
Oom-pah-pah...
Whether it's hidden or whether it show,
It's the same oom pah-pah
She was from the country but now she's up a gum tree
She let a feller feed her then lead her a long
What's the good of crying she's made a bed to lie in
She's glad to bring the coin in and join in this song
Oom-pah-pah...
She is no longer the same blushing rose
Ever since oom pah pah
Oom-pah-pah...
They all suppose what they want to suppose
When they hear oom pah-pah

OOM PAH PAH
There's a little ditty they're singing in the city
Especially when they've been on the gin or the beer
If you've got the patience your own imaginations will
Tell you just exactly what you want to hear
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! That's how it goes
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! Everyone knows
They all suppose what they want to suppose
When they hear Oom-pah-pah!
Mister Percy Snodgrass would often have the odd glass
But never when he thought anybody could see
Secretly he'd buy it and drink it on the quiet
And dream he was an Earl wiv a girl on each knee.
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! That's how it goes
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! Everyone knows
What is the cause of his red shiny nose
Can it be Oom-pah-pah?
Pretty little Sally goes walking down the alley
Displays her pretty ankles to all of the men
They could see her garters, but not for free and gratis
An inch or two and then she knows when to say when
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! That's how it goes
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! Everyone knows
Whether it's hidden or whether it shows
It's the same Oom-pah-pah!
She was from the country, but now she's up a gumtree
She let a fellow beat her and lead her along
What's the use of cryin', she made her bed to lie in
She's glad to bring a coin in and join in this song
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! That's how it goes
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah! Everyone knows
She is no longer the same blushing rose
Ever since Oom-pah-pah!
O-P-P! O-P-P! That's how it goes, O-P-P! O-P-P! Everyone knows
They all suppose what they want to suppose
When they hear Oom-pah-pah!
