After seven years of life upon the ocean It is time to bid the Seven Seas farewell And the city I've pinned seven years of hopes on Lies just over the horizon, I can hear the harbor bell Land, ahoy Got a tattered overcoat and battered suitcase Got a pair of leaky boots upon my feet Gotta drag myself up by my one good bootlace Gotta work my rotten socks off if I want to make ends meet I've poured everything I've got into my chocolate Now it's time to show the world my recipes I've got twelve silver sovereigns in my pocket And a hatful of dreams There's a famous restaurant on every street here There's Brandino's and the Bar Parisian (restaurant map, sir?) Oh, thank you Got a little map to tell me where to eat here Had a dozen silver sovereigns, now I'm somehow down to ten Want the finest produce? This is where they stock it (that's three sovereigns, mate) Though the prices are suspiciously extreme (can you pay for it?) I've got five, six, seven? Six silver sovereigns in my pocket And a hatful of dreams Brush your coat, sir? No thank you Cologne? No, leave me alone At last, the Gallery Gourmet I knew that we'd see it one day It's everything you said, Mama And, oh, so much more Each way that you turn, another famous chocolate store Here's my destiny, I just need to unlock it Will I crash and burn or go up like a rocket? I got nothing to offer but my chocolate And a hatful of dreams In this city, anyone can be successful If they've talent and work hard, or so they say But they didn't mention it would be so stressful Just to make a dozen silver sovereigns last more than a day Could you spare a sovereign for a place to sleep, love? Of course, here, take all you need Thank you I've got one silver sovereign in my pocket And a hatful of dreams
