Reviewing the Situation (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Reviewing the Situation" is a song written by Lionel Bart for the 1960 musical Oliver!, based upon the 1838 novel Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. It is sung by the character of Fagin, at a moral crossroads towards the end of the musical as he reconsiders his criminal lifestyle. It was introduced by English actor Ron Moody, who played Fagin in the original London production of the musical as well as its 1968 film adaptation and two revivals, in the West End and on Broadway, in 1983 and 1984 respectively.
