Consider Yourself [Oliver]Consider yourself at home. Consider yourself one of the family. We've taken to you so strong. It's clear we're going to get along.

Consider yourself well in Consider yourself part to the furniture. There isn't a lot to spare. Who cares?. What ever we've got we

share! If it should chance to be We should see Some harder days Empty larder days Why grouse? Always a chance we'll meet

Somebody To foot the bill Chorus: Then the drinks are on the house!

Consider yourself our mate. We don't want to have no fuss,

For after some consideration, we can state... Consider yourself One of us!

One Singular Sensation [A Chorus Line]

Chorus: One singular sensation

Every little step she takes.

One thrilling combination

Every move that she makes.One smile and suddenly

nobody else will do;

You know you'll never be lonely with you know who.

One moment in her presence

And you can forget the rest.

For the girl is second best To none, Son.

Ooooh! Sigh! Give her your attention.

Do...I...really have to mention?

She's the One?

Counter-Melody:

She walks into a room

And you know you must

Shuffle along, join the parade.

She's the quintessence of

making the grade.

This is whatcha call Trav-ling.Oh, strut your stuff!

Can't get enough Of her.

Love her. I'm a son of a gun,

She is one of a kind
