Turpin:
You see, sir a man infatuate with love
her ardent and eager slave
So fetch the pomade and pumice stone
And lend me a more seductive tone
A sprinkling perhaps of French cologne
But first sir I think...a shave..
Todd:
The closest I ever gave...
Turpin:
In a merry mood today, Mr. Todd?
Todd:
'Tis your delight, sir catching fire
From one man to the next!
Turpin:
'Tis true, sir, love can still inspire
The blood to pound a heart leap higher
What more,
Todd:
What more?
[unison]
Can man require
Turpin:
Than love sir?
Todd:
More than love, sir
Turpin:
What sir?
Todd:
Women
Turpin:
Ah, yes women
Todd:
Pretty women...
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Now then, my friend
Now to your purpose...
Patients
Enjoy it...Revenge can't be taken in haste....
Turpin:
Make haste and in this work you'll be commended, sir!
Todd:
My lord!
And who may it be said is your intended, sir?
Turpin:
My ward...
(spoken) Pretty as a rosebud..
Todd: (spoken)
Pretty as her mother?
Turpin: (spoken)
Huh? What was that?
Todd: (spoken)
Nothing sir, nothing.(Sung)
Pretty women
Fascinating
Sipping coffee
Dancing...
Pretty women
Are a wonder...
Pretty women!
Sitting in the window or
Standing on the stair
Something in them
Chills the air..
Pretty women
Turpin:Silhouetted...
Todd:Stay within you,
Turpin:
Glancing....
Todd:
Stay forever...
Turpin:
Breathing lightly...
Todd:Pretty women..
[unison]
Pretty women!
[together and alternating]
Blowing out their candles or
Combing out their hair....
(Combing out their hair..)
Then they leave
(Even when they leave you and vanish they, somehow can still remain there with you)
Even when they leave
They still are there
They're there...
Ah pretty women!
Todd:At their mirrors
Turpin:In their gardens
Todd:
Letter-writing
Turpin:
Flower picking
Todd:
weather watching
[both]
How they make a man sing
Proof of heaven, as you're living
Pretty women...
(Todd)Sir...
Pretty women...
Yes...
Pretty women
Pretty women
All the Pretty women!
