      My Name. Bill sings this song when "Oom Pah Pah" ends and he walks into the bar looking for a fight. By then almost everyone has left because of him.

      Bates. Dawkins is the Artful Dodger's last name (his first name is Jack), Smith is not in the play and Brownlow is Oliver's grandfather's last name.

      An apple. Dodger nicked an apple for Oliver because Oliver had been walking for a week with little food. That's how they met.

    In 'Where is Love', what tree did Oliver sing about?"Oliver!", the Musical

      Mr. and Mrs. Sowerberry. They both sang it in the funeral parlour when they were giving Oliver a job as a children's funeral-carriage follower.
