GREEN PIES AND HAM

Sweeney: That Judge must die!
That Judge must die!
I really think
that Judge must die!

Mrs. Lovett: Would you like
a nice meat pie?

Sweeney: I do not want
your awful pie,
I have to get
the Judge to die!

Mrs. Lovett: Would you like one
by the sea?

Sweeney: I would not like one
by the sea.
Now, please, strange woman,
leave me be!
I do not like
your lousy pie.
Now let me plot:
The Judge must die!

Mrs. Lovett: Would you live
above my shop?
I kept your razors
and your strop!

Sweeney: All right. I'll live
above your shop.
I'll use my razors
and my strop.
I'll slit their throats,
then they will die.
We'll turn my patrons
Into pie!

A Little Priest

posted by sweeneyfan1

MRS. LOVETT:
Seems a downright shame...
TODD: Shame?
LOVETT:
Seems an awful waste...
Such a nice, plump frame
Wot's 'is name has...
Had...
Has!
Nor it can't be traced...
Bus'ness needs a lift,
Debts to be erased...
Think of it as thrift,
As a gift,
If you get my drift!

No?

Seems an awful waste...
I mean, with the price of meat
What it is,
When you get it,
If you get it...

TODD: HAH!
LOVETT:
Good, you got it!

Take, for instance, Mrs. Mooney and her pie shop!
Bus'ness never better using only pussycats and toast!
And a pussy's good for maybe six or seven at the most!
And I'm sure they can't compare...

MRS. LOVETT:
(spoken) A customer!

Wait!
What's your rush? What's your hurry?
You gave me such a --
Fright, I thought you was a ghost!
Half a minute, can'tcher sit!
Sit you down, sit!
All I meant is that I haven't seen a customer for weeks!
Did you come here for a pie, sir?
Do forgive me if me head's a little vague --
Ugh! What is that?
But you think we had the plague!
From the way that people
Keep avoiding --
No you don't!
Heaven knows I try, sir!
Ick!
But there's no one comes in even to inhale!
Right you are, sir, would you like a drop of ale?
Mind you, I can't hardly blame them!
These are probably the worst pies...

My Friends Fault...

posted by iloveJCB99

I was in fourth grade and my best friend came to school and said,
"My brother was watching this movie called Sweeney Todd and it has Johnny Depp in it."
so of course, I got so excited because even then I loved Johnny Depp. She came over after school and showed me By The Sea on Youtube.
I instantly fell in love. We spent the whole afternoon listening to Sweeney Todd songs and from then on, we dreamed about seeing it once we were old enough (we thought it was PG-13 not R).
We didn't see it until we were in seventh grade, but it was AWESOME! She got it for me on DVD and from then on, I was hooked.
Later that year I showed it to two of my best friends and one of my good friends, and got two of them obsessed...now i am held responsible for bringing the DVD to our sleepovers...

pritty women

posted by claire-aka-bob

Pretty women
Fascinating...
Sipping coffee,
Dancing... pretty women
Pretty women
Are a wonder.
Pretty women!

Sitting in the window or
Standing on the stair
Something in them cheers the air.

Pretty women
Silhouetted...
Stay within you,
Glancing... stay forever,
Breathing lightly...
Pretty women,
Pretty women!

Blowing out their candles or
Combing out their hair,
Even when they leave
They still are there.
They're there

Ah! Pretty women, at their mirrors,
In their gardens,
Letter-writing,
Flower-picking,
Weather-watching.
How they make a man sing!

Proof of heaven as you're living,
Pretty women! Yes, pretty women!
Here's to pretty women,
Pretty women,
Pretty women,
Pretty women

MRS. LOVETT:

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've been thinkin' flowers,
Maybe daisies,
To brighten up the room!
Don't you think some flowers,
Pretty daisies,
Might relieve the gloom?
Ah, wait,
Love, wait.

TODD: (spoken) And the judge? When will I get to him?

LOVETT:
Can't you think of nothin' else?
Always broodin' away on your 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 dunno though...
What do you think?

O'sweeneyan Rhapsody (Parody of Bohemian Rhapsody XD)

posted by slytherin360

Found this on imdb:

O'SWEENEYAN RHAPSODY

[ANTHONY]
This is the good life,
This is a fantasy,
Living in London

[SWEENEY]
...doesn't do much for me.

[MRS. LOVETT]
Sample my pies,
Just brush off the flies and see
I'm just a poor gal, I need some sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Prices high, profits low
Lusting after Barker, that's what really matters
To me
To me

Sweeney just killed a man
Put a razor to his throat,
Now there's blood upon his coat,
Sweeney, life had just begun:
And then Judge Turpin sent you far away.
Sweeney, ooooo...
I'm afraid your wife has died,
But cheer up, after all...

Eat you up, I really could!

TODD: (spoken) Yes, yes, of course.

LOVETT: Do you really want to know?

TODD: (spoken) Yes, I do, I do.

LOVETT: (spoken) I've always had this dream...
Ever since I was a skinny little slip of a thing and my rich Aunt
Nettie used to take me down to the seaside August Bank Holiday...
The pier... Makin' little castles in the sand......

Ladies and their Sensitivities

Judge (spoken)
Walk home with me, for I have news for you
In order to shield her from the evils of this world,
I have decided to marry Johanna next Monday.

Beadle (spoken)
Ah, sir happy news.

Judge (spoken)
Strange, when I offered myself to her, she showed a certain reluctance.

Beadle (sung)
Excuse me my lord
May I request my lord,
Permission my lord to speak?

Forgive me if I suggest my lord
You’re looking less than your best my lord,
There’s powder upon your vest my lord,
And stubble upon your cheek.

And ladies my lord
Are weak

Judge (spoken)
Perhaps if she greets me cordially...

with ten times more dexterity than any street mounterbank! You see these Razors?
I lay them against five ounds you are no match for me.

Pirelli:
You hear this foolish man? Watch and see how he will regret his folly.

Todd:

Beadle:
Gladly, as always, to oblige my friends and neighbors.

Pirelli:

Todd:

For if you slip and nick-a da skin,

TODD:
These are my friends,
See how they glisten.
See this one shine,
How he smiles in the light,
My friends,
My faithful friends...

Speak to me, friend.
Whisper, I'll listen.
I know, I know
You've been locked out of sight
All these years!
Like me, my friend!
Well, I've come home
To find you waiting!
Home,
And we're together...
And we'll do wonders...
Won't we...?

[Simultaneously, for rest of song]
TODD:
You there, my friend,
Come, let me hold you.
Now, with a sigh,
You grow warm
In my hand...
My friend,
My clever friend...
LOVETT:

If you only knew, Mr. Todd.
Ooh, Mr. Todd,
