Epiphany

I had him....

His throat was there beneath me hand!

No I had him!His throat was there, and he'll never come again!

Lovett:

Easy now

Hush love, hush

I keep telling you...

Todd:

When?!

Lovett:

....What's your rush?...

Todd:

Why did I wait?

You told me to wait!

Now he'll never come again

There's a hole in the world like a great black pit

And it's filled with people who are filled with shit

And the vermon of the world inhabit it..

But not for long...!

They all deserve to die

Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why...

Because in all of the whole human race, Mrs. Lovett, there are two kinds of men and only two

There's the one staying put in his proper place

And the one with his foot in the other one's face

Look at me, Mrs. Lovett, look at you!No we all deserve to die

Even you, Mrs. Lovett, even I!

Because the lives of the wicked should be, made brief

For the rest of us death will be a relief

Oh we all deserve to die...

And I'll never see Johanna

No I'll never hug my girl to me...

FINISHED!

Alright!

You sir, how about a shave?

Come and visit, your good friend, Sweeney!

You sir, too sir, welcome to the grave

I will have vengeance..

I will have salvation...

Who sir, you sir?

No one's in the chair

Come on! Come on!

Sweeney's waiting...I want you bleeders...

You sir, anybody!

Gentlemen now don't be shy

Not one man

No, nor ten men

Nor a hundred

Can assuage me

I will have you!

And I will get him back

Even as he gloats!

In the meantime I'll practice on less honorable throats

And my Lucy lies in ashes

And I'll never see my girl again

But the work, waits...

I'm alive at last...

And I'm full of joy!
