Sweeney Todd: No I had him!
His throat was bare beneath my hand
No I had him!
His throat was there and now he'll never come again
Mrs. Lovett: Easy now, hush love hush
I keep telling you
Sweeney Todd: When? Why did I wait?
Mrs. Lovett: What's your rush?
Sweeney Todd: You told me to wait!
Now he'll never come again
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And it's filled with people who are filled with shit
And the vermin of the world inhabit it
But not for long...
They all deserve to die
Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why
Because in all of the whole human race
Mrs Lovett, there are two kinds of men and only two
There's the one staying put in his proper place
And the one with his foot in the other one's face
Look at me, Mrs Lovett, look at you
Now we all deserve to die
Even you, Mrs. Lovett, even I
Because the lives of the wicked should be made brief
For the rest of us death will be a relief
We all deserve to die
And I'll never see Joanna
No I'll never hug my girl to me
FINISHED!
Alright! You sir, how about a shave?
Come and visit your good friend Sweeney
You sir, too sir? Welcome to the grave
I will have vengenance
I will have salvation
Who sir, you sir?
No one's in the chair, come on! Come on!
Sweeney's waitin,. I want you bleeders
You sir, anybody.
Gentlemen don't be shy!
No one man, no, no ten men
Nor a hundred can assuage me
I will have you!
And I will get him back even as he gloats
In the meantime I'll practice on dishonorable throats
And my Lucy lies in ashes
And I'll never see my girl again
But the work waits!
I'm alive at last!
And I'm full of joy!
