Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street | Lyrics

God, That's Good

[TOBY]

Ladies and gentlemen
May I have your attention, perlease?
Are your nostrils aquiver and tingling as well
At that delicate, luscious ambrosial smell?
Yes they are, I can tell

Well, ladies and gentlemen
That aroma enriching the breeze
Is like nothing compared to it's succulent source
As the gourmets among you will tell you, of course

Ladies and gentlemen
You can't imagine the rapture in store-
Just inside of this door!

There you'll sample
Mrs. Lovett's meat pies
Savory and sweet pies
As you'll see
You who eat pies
Misses Lovett's meat pies
Conjure up the treat pies
Used to be!

[ LOVETT]
Toby!

[TOBY]
Coming!

[LOVETT]
Ale there!

[TOBY]
Right, mum!

[LOVETT]
Quick, now!
Nice to see you, dearie
How have you been keeping?
Cor, me bones is weary!
Toby!
One for the gentleman...
Hear the birdies cheeping-
Helps to keep it cheery...
Toby!
Throw the old woman out!

What's my secret?
Frankly, dear一forgive my candor一
Family secret
All to do with herbs
Things like being
Careful with your coriander
That's what makes the gravy grander!

[BOTH]
Eat them slow and
Feel the crust, how thin she rolled it!
Eat them slow, 'cos
Every one's a prize!
Eat them slow, 'cos
That's the lot and now we've sold it
Come again tomorrow-

[LOVETT & (TOBY)]
Hold it!
Bless my eyes-
Fresh supplies!

How about it, dearie? (Is that a pie)
Be here in a twinkling! (Fit for a king)
Just confirms my theory. (A wondrous sweet)
Toby-! (And most delectable)
God watches over us. (Thing?)
Didn't have an inkling... (You see, ma'am, why)
Positively eerie... (There is no meat pie-)

[LOVETT]
Toby!
Throw the old woman out!
