- Villager: [the two women watch as Jack climbs the beanstalk, then the villager turns to the tearful mother] Don't worry, Mrs. Strong. He won't be back.
- Jack: [singing] I fear nothing when I am in the right / Whoever pushes me around will find me full of fight.
- Jack: [about the Princess] We gotta save her.
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: You're right.
- Jack: There's the castle. Let's go.
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Come on. What am I doing? Go ahead.
- [repeated line]
- The Giant: Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum! I smell the blood of an Englishman. Be he alive or be he dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread.
- Chorus: [singing] Jack and the beanstalk, we'll always remember when / He chased up the stalk and killed a giant in his den.
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: I managed this boy.
- [last lines]
- Jack Strong: [singing] I fear nothing when I do nothing wrong / And so I toddle on my way and sing a merry song.
- Polly the Housekeeper: [Admiring princess Eloise's dress in a mirror] Oh, it's beautiful! But it's a trifle too small for me.
- Patrick the Harp: A trifle she says. Glory be, I do wish I knew why the master keeps a wench like you around?
- Polly the Housekeeper: He likes my cooking. And I don't wanna hear another word out of you.
- Patrick the Harp: Cooking? Can you make an Irish stew? Can you boil a potato, like my poor mother used to boil them?
- Polly the Housekeeper: I can put you back in the cupboard if you don't shut up.
- Patrick the Harp: And I can tell the master you never put the princess in her cell, like he told you to.
- Polly the Housekeeper: You win this time.
- Patrick the Harp: Patrick always wins.
- [sings]
- Patrick the Harp: Come back to Erin, Mavourneen, Mavourneen...
- [talking]
- Patrick the Harp: Aah, 'tis in fine voice, I am today.
- Princess Eloise: I still can't believe that harp talks.
- Polly the Housekeeper: He talks too much.
- Princess Eloise: I meant to ask you, are you the giant's wife?
- Polly the Housekeeper: Heavens no! I'm his housekeeper. He stole me last year from another kingdom.
- Princess Eloise: Well, what'll do with me?
- Polly the Housekeeper: Release you for ransom money, perhaps.
- Princess Eloise: And if there is no ransom money?
- Polly the Housekeeper: You'd make a lovely Sunday dinner.
- Polly the Housekeeper: [Polly, Jack and Dinklepuss enter the castle] I'll show you what you're supposed to do.
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Yeah, you show me, and I'll show him.
- Patrick the Harp: Make the little fat one work till his back breaks. How I love the sound of cracking bones.
- Jack: You're a bad harp, and you're gonna have a bad ending.
- Patrick the Harp: Sticks and stones, sticks and stones!
- Polly the Housekeeper: Alright blabbermouth, into the cupboard you go!
- [Takes the harp over to the cupboard and starts putting him inside it]
- Patrick the Harp: Don't you dare put me in that dark cupboard again! Don't you dare! A thousand curses on you, and I'll have me revenge! Come back to Erin, Mavourneen, Mavourneen! A thousand curses on ya...
- [Polly closes the cupboard doors]
- Patrick the Harp: [the giant just entered the castle dining hall, carrying a bag filled with jewels] And a good "Good Morning" to ya master!
- The Giant: Good morning, harp. Housekeeper, housekeeper!
- [Polly enters as he's emptying the bag onto the table]
- The Giant: Where's my breakfast?
- Polly the Housekeeper: On the way.
- The Giant: And bring me my favorite hen.
- Patrick the Harp: What, heaven forbid, do you see in that white feathered biddy?
- The Giant: Golden eggs, Patrick. Solid golden eggs!
- Polly the Housekeeper: [Jack enters the room, pushing a grill, wearing a chef's hat and apron. Polly whispers in his ear] The cells are unlocked and I put the keys back.
- Patrick the Harp: They're whispering master! What're they whispering about?
- [Jack sneers at the harp]
- Jack: Oh, I hate him.
- Polly the Housekeeper: Please take care of yourself.
- [Exits the room]
- Jack: [Musing to himself] I think she's worried. She cares for me.
- The Giant: Where's my breakfast?
- [Looking over the jewels]
- Patrick the Harp: Beautiful they are, but can they bring you happiness?
- [the giant finds a very small one and tosses it on the floor]
- The Giant: How'd that little one get in here?
- [Getting impatient]
- The Giant: Where's my breakfast?
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: You heard the giant!
- [Picks up the jewel the giant tossed and looks at it through a magnifying glass]
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Can I help you put them away?
- The Giant: Can I trust you?
- [Begins putting the jewels back in the bag]
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Eh, why, what a ridiculous question.
- [the giant grabs him by the shirt and repeats the question]
- The Giant: Can I trust you?
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Well frankly, no...
- The Giant: [Polly has come back, carrying a hen. The giant takes it from her and starts petting it] My jewel of jewels!
- Patrick the Harp: My jewel of jewels. What can she do that I can't do?
- The Giant: [Looks over at the harp] Can you lay a golden egg?
- Patrick the Harp: I shudder at the thought.
- The Giant: [Lays the hen down on the table] Show him how talented you are. Lay hen, lay!
- [after a moment it lays a golden egg, the giant picks it up]
- Patrick the Harp: It's only gold.
- The Giant: It's my main source of wealth.
- [to Polly]
- The Giant: Take her away.
- [to Dinkelpuss]
- The Giant: You!
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Y-yes, sir?
- The Giant: I like a dishonest man, who admits it. Carry these jewels back to the vault. She'll show you where it is.
- Mr. Dinkelpuss: Yes, sir.
- [Takes the bag and leaves with Polly]
- Polly the Housekeeper: [the giant is preparing to eat Jack] The prince and the princess, they're trying to escape!
- The Giant: Let them.
- Polly the Housekeeper: They've taken your jewels and your hen that lays the golden egg!
- The Giant: The scoundrels! Keep him salted.
- [Hands her the salt and exits the room]
- Patrick the Harp: [Jack and the others are preparing to escape] Master, master, 'tis a black day indeed!
- Jack: You keep your mouth shut, or I cut you to ribbons!
