the ballad of sweeney todd - eleri ward lyrics
[a man]
attend the tale of sweeney todd
his skin was pale and his eye was odd
he shaved the faces of gentlemen
who never thereafter were heard of again
he trod a path that few have trod
did sweeney todd
the demon barber of fleet street
[another man]
he kept a shop in london town
of fancy clients and good renown
and what if none of their souls were saved?
they went to their maker impeccably shaved
by sweeney
by sweeney todd
the demon barber of fleet street
[company]
swing your razor wide, sweeney!
hold it to the skies!
freely flows the blood of those
who moralize!
his needs were few and his room was bare
a lavabo and a fancy chair
a mug of suds and a leather strop
an apr*n, a towel, a pail and a mop
for neatness he deserved a nod
did sweeney todd
the demon barber of fleet street
inconspicuous sweeney was
quick and quiet and clean he was
back of his smile, under his word
sweeney heard music that n0body heard
sweeney pondered and sweeney planned
like a perfect machine he planned
sweeney was smooth, sweeney was subtle
sweeney would blink and rats would scuttle
sweeney!
sweeney! sweeney! sweeney!
sweeney!
sweeney! sweeney! sweeney!
sweeney!
[sweeney todd]
attend the tale of sweeney todd
[company]
attend the tale of sweeney todd
[sweeney todd]
he served a dark and vengeful god
[company]
he served a dark and vengeful god
[sweeney todd]
what happened then, well, that’s the play
and he wouldn’t want us to give it away
not sweeney
[sweeney tood & company]
not sweeney todd
the demon barber of fleet street
