[MEN] Victoria's messenger riding comes Riding comes, riding comes
[WOMEN] Hark, he comes! Hark, he comes!
[MEN] Victoria's messenger riding comes Riding comes, riding comes
[WOMEN] Victoria's messenger riding comes Riding comes, riding comes Hark, he comes! Hark, he comes!
[ENSEMBLE] Victoria's messenger riding comes Victoria's messenger riding comes Victoria's messenger riding comes Victoria's messenger riding comes Victoria's m?ssenger riding comes
[MESSENGER, spoken] In vi?w of her coronation, her Majesty has decreed That the prisoner Macheath shall at once forthwith be freed
[MEN, spoken] Hooray!
[MESSENGER, spoken] Also, as of this moment, he receives the rank of Knight of the Garter, a castle at Mucking-on-the-Creek in Sussex, and an annual pension for life of ten thousand pounds 'til the day of his death.
[MEN, spoken] Hooray!
[MESSENGER, spoken] And to all the charming wedding couples here, the Queen presents her Royal felicitations.
[MACHEATH] Reprieved! Reprieved! Oh, I had no doubts No, I had no doubts As the need is sorest So the answer comes soonest As the need is sorest So the answer comes soonest
[POLLY] Reprieved! Reprieved! My love Macheath has been reprieved And I am happy [MRS. PEACHUM] So now the story happily has ended If only life so easily were mended And on our real woes a messenger descended
[PEACHUM] Therefore to all, stand fast where you are standing And lift your voices in the choral anthem Devoted to the poorest of the poor For in real life the ending isn't quite so fine Victoria's messenger does not come riding often And the reply to a kick in the pants Is just another kick in the pants So bless you but not too eagerly in justice
[ENSEMBLE] [?]
[BALLAD SINGER] Happy ending, nice and tidy It's a rule I learned in school Get your money every Friday Happy endings are the rule So divide up those in darkness From the ones who walk in light Light 'em up boys, there's your picture Drop the shadows out of sight
