Mrs. Lovett: “It’s not much of a chair, but it’ll do. It was me poor Albert’s chair. Sit in it all day long, he did, after his leg give out with gout.”
Sweeney Todd: “Why doesn’t the Beadle come? ‘Before the week is out,’ - that’s what he said.”
Mrs. Lovett: “Well, who says the week’s out? It’s only Tuesday.”
Easy now Hush, love, hush Don’t distress yourself What’s your rush? Keep your thoughts Nice and lush Wait
Hush, love, hush Think it through Once it bubbles Then what’s to do? Watch it close Let it brew Wait
I been thinking flowers-- Maybe daisies-- To brighten up the room Don’t you think some flowers Pretty daisies Might relieve the gloom?
Ah, wait Love, wait
Sweeney Todd: “And the Judge? When will we get to him?”
Mrs. Lovett: “Can’t you think of nothin’ else? Always broodin’ away on yer wrongs what happened heaven knows how many years ago--”
Slow, love, slow Time’s so fast Now goes quickly-- See, now it’s past! Soon will come Soon will last Wait
Don’t you know Silly man Half the fun is to Plan the plan? All good things come to Those who can Wait
Gillyflowers, maybe ’Stead of daisies… I don’t know, though… What do you think? |
