Poison in My Pocket (Reprise)
[MONTY]
I am sitting here with poison in my pocket
Look whose head is finally on the block
It seems that now at last the moment I've been waiting for is here

All that's really left to be decided is the dish to put the poison in, provided
I can do what must be done discreetly when the coast is clear

I confess it pains me some to ruin someone's cooking--oh!
For God's sake, now another servant's looking
I have had a run of luck but this one does require skill

Fish or fowl, it must be well-selected so that no one else at all will be affected
What an awful waste to do in someone I don't want to kill
