=aside= FranThanks for the birthday wishes.
Here's my favorite song from Oliver! Seems like a good choice for a birthday.
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?
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?
There must be someone who will buy...

Here's the big dance number from the film (9:01). I'm not sure Dickens would approve.
