Mrs. Lovett:
Toby, where are you, love?
(spoken)
Where is he?
Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
Toby? Toby?
Mrs. Lovett:
Nothing's gonna harm you, darling,
Not while I'm around
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
Toby?
Anthony:
(spoken)
Mr Todd!
(to Johanna)
You wait for him here.
I'll return with the coach in less than half an hour.
Don't worry, no one will recognize you. You're safe now.
Johanna:
(spoken)
Safe? So we run away and then all our dreams come true?
Anthony:
(spoken)
I hope so.
Johanna:
(spoken)
I've never had dreams-- only nightmares.
Anthony:
(spoken)
Johanna, when we're free of this place
All the ghosts will go away.
Johanna:
(spoken)
No, Anthony, they never go away.
Anthony:
(spoken)
I'll be right back to you.
Half an hour and we'll be free!
Beggar Woman:
Beadle, Beadle!
No good hiding, I saw you!
Are you in there still, Beadle,
Beadle, Beadle, dear Beadle?
Beadle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle dumpling
Beadle dumpling
Ba deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle--
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
Who are you? What are you doing here?
Beggar Woman:
(spoken)
Evil is here, sir! The stink of evil from below--from her! She's the devil's wife! Beware of her sir! She, with no pity in her heart!
(sung)
Hey, don't I know you mister?
Judge Turpin:
(spoken)
Mr. Todd?
Where is she?
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
Below, your honor, with my neighbor. Thank heavens the sailor did not molest her. Thank heavens too, she has seen the error of her ways.
Judge Turpin:
(spoken)
She has?
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
Oh, yes. Your lesson was well learned. She speaks only of you, longing for forgiveness.
Judge Turpin:
(spoken)
Then she shall have it.
She'll be here soon, you say?
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
Yes.
Judge Turpin:
(spoken)
Excellent, my friend!
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
How 'bout a shave?
Sit, sir. Sit!
Judge Turpin:
Oh, pretty women
Sweeney Todd:
Pretty women, yes!
Judge Turpin:
Johanna, Johanna.
Sweeney Todd:
Pretty women, pretty women are a wonder
Pretty women!
Todd: Turpin:
Pretty Women! What would we do
For women
Turpin&Todd:
Blowing out their candles
Or combing out their hair
Judge Turpin:
Then they leave
Todd: Turpin:
Even when they Even when they
Leave leave you and
Vanish they somehow can still
They still
Remain there with you,
Are there there
They're there...
Judge Turpin:
(spoken)
How seldom it is one meets a fellow spirit.
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
With fellow tastes... in women at least.
Judge Turpin:
(spoken, laughing)
What's that?
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
The years no doubt have changed me, sir; but then I suppose the face of a barber, the face of a prisoner, a dog, is not particularly memorable.
Judge Turpin:
(spoken)
Benjamin Barker!
Sweeney Todd:
(screaming)
BENJAMIN BARKER!
(sung)
Rest now my friend
Rest now forever
Sleep now the untroubled
Sleep of the angels
(spoken)
"Don't I know you," she said...
You knew she lived.
Mrs. Lovett:
(spoken)
I was only thinking of you...
Sweeney Todd:
(spoken)
You lied to me.
Mrs. Lovett:
No, no, not lied at all--
No I never lied,
Todd: Mrs. Lovett:
Lucy... said she took a
Poison, she did,
I've never said that she
Died! Poor thing,
Come she lived, but it
Left her weak in the
Home head-- all she did for
Months was just lie
Again. there in bed-- should
Have been in hospital,
Lucy! wound up in bedlam instead
Oh my Poor thing, better
You should think she
God! was dead, yes I lied
'cause I love you!
Lucy... I'd be twice the
Wife she was-- I
What love you! Could that
Thing have cared for
Have I you like me?
Done?
Sweeney Todd:
Mrs. Lovett,
You're a bloody wonder--
Eminently practical
And yet appropriate as always
As you've said repeatedly, there's
Little point in dwelling on the past
Todd: Mrs. Lovett:
Now come here Do you mean it?
My love!
Everything I did
I swear I thought
Was only for the best!
Not a thing to fear,
My love!
Believe me!
What's dead Can we still be
Is dead! married?
Sweeney Todd:
The history of the world, my pet...
Mrs. Lovett:
Oh, Mr. Todd,
Oh, Mr. Todd,
Leave it to me!
Sweeney Todd:
...is learn forgiveness
And try to forget!
Mrs. Lovett:
By the sea, Mr. Todd,
We'll be comfy, cozy
By the sea, Mr. Todd,
Where there's no one nosy
Sweeney Todd:
And life is for the alive, my dear,
So let's keep living it,
Todd & Lovett:
Just keep living it,
Todd: & Lovett:
(screams) (barely audible)
REALLY LIVING IT! really living it!
*Mrs. Lovett screams*
Sweeney Todd:
There was a barber and his wife,
And she was beautiful
A foolish barber and his wife
She was his reason and his life,
And she was beautiful
And she was virtuous
And he was--
