You've Got to Pick a Pocket or Two : ウィキペディア英語版 | You've Got to Pick a Pocket or Two "You've Got to Pick a Pocket or Two" is a song from the Tony Award-winning British musical ''Oliver!'', and the 1968 Academy Award winning film ''Oliver!'' based on the novel ''Oliver Twist'' by Charles Dickens. The musical was penned by Lionel Bart, and was first shown in London's West End in 1960. ==Background== The song is sung in Fagin's lair in a scene based on the section of Dickens's book where Fagin (played by Ron Moody in the film) teaches Oliver Twist and the rest of the boys how to pick the pockets of gentlemen so as to be able to steal their handkerchiefs, etc., without being detected. It is the first song in Act I Scene vi. Fagin and the boys loosely dangle various 'hankies' from their pockets while dancing around the room and doing gymnastics to show Oliver how easy it is to steal one without it being noticed. Although less pronounced than "Reviewing the Situation",〔https://cdr.lib.unc.edu/indexablecontent?id=uuid:ea4184d4-26f3-44ef-872b-016383b731c6&ds=DATA_FILE&dl=true〕 this song has a Jewish melody.〔http://www.classical.com/composer/Lionel_Bart〕
