I get changed into some proper time era clothes and head up to Mr. Todds shop. I knock on the door and hear a come in so I head on in.

"You can start by cleaning up around here" I nod and start cleaning. I start quietly singing this song;

(Okay I made this up in like 5 minutes so like how does this sound as a summary of Sweeney Todd but like with the poor thing tune:)

There was a barber and his wife, and they were beautiful!
A proper artist and his wife.
She was his reason and his life. But they transported him for life.
15 years at sea, not guilty.

His wife sobbed by the hour
The judge wanted her like mad
Everyday he sent her a flower
Poor fool! Poor thing!
There was worse yet to come poor thing!
The judge tricked her thinking
he was contrite
She poisoned herself all night
Poor thing! Poor thing!

15 years later, he came back
Lovett wanted him like mad
Everyday she sent him breakfast
But did he come down from his tower?
She tricked him, you see
To cannibalize
for revenge in the pies
Poor fool! Poor fool!
Lovett didn't tell him
You see! You see!
His wife lived after all!
Poor thing!
He rushed up to his shop
You see! You see!
Awaiting the judge to come!
She ended up in his shop
You see!
He acted out of panic
You see! You see!
And killed her right on the spot
He didn't know it was her
You see!
The judge came up just in time
You see!
She was already in the basement
You see!
'Oh where is Johanna'
He asks
He killed the judge at the scene
He heard another scream!
He rushed down to the basement
Poor thing! Poor thing!
He finds out about his wife
Poor thing!
He pretends to have forgiven her
You see!
Dances around with her!
Poor FOOL! Poor FOOl!
He throws her into the stove
You see!
And goes back to his wife
Poor fool! Poor thing,..
A kid comes along
And kills Sweeney
You see!
There was a barber and his wife
And they were beautiful!
A proper artist with his wife.
She was his reason and his life.
But they transported him for life
15 years at sea, not guilty.
But they were beautiful!

Sweeney looked up at you but never minded it. You were probably a crazy person from the future. But he secretly hoped you sang more. He thought you had a pretty voice, despite the crazy talk you had been saying.

You started to sing all the parts to a little priest because you're probably Sweeney Todd trash but even if you're not the author is so I decide because this is my story but like don't leave because ehhhhhhh quieter but Sweeney could still hear you just enough. He knew he had heard ms Lovett sing that song with him a few days ago. He found it odd you sang both parts again because you're probably Sweeney Todd trash and like even if you aren't like why are you here like get out but don't leave I mean unless you want to thennnnn.

He liked your singing even though how weird it was.
