Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street | Lyrics

Final Sequence (Spoiler Alert!)

[LOVETT]
Toby, where are you, love

(spoken)
Where is he?

(sung)
Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm
around

[TODD, spoken]
Toby, Toby

[LOVETT]
Nothing's gonna harm you, darling, not
while I'm around

[TODD, spoken]
Toby?

[ANTHONY, spoken]
Mr Todd! (to Johanna) you wait for him
here. I'll return with the coach in less
than half an hour. Don't worry. No one
will
Recognize you. You're safe now

[JOHANNA, spoken]
Safe? So we run away and then all our
dreams come true?

[ANTHONY, spoken]
I hope so

[JOHANNA, spoken]
I've never had dreams... only nightmares

[ANTHONY, spoken]
Johanna, when we're free of this place
all the ghosts will go away

[JOHANNA, spoken]
No, Anthony, they never go away

[ANTHONY, spoken]
I'll be right back to you. Half an hour
and we'll be free!

[WOMAN]
Beadle, Beadle
No good hiding I saw you
Are you in there still, beadle
Beadle, beadle, dear beadle
Beadle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle dumpling
Beadle dumpling
Ba deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle deedle deedle
Deedle deedle

[TODD, spoken]
Who are you? What are you doing
here?

[WOMAN, spoken]
Evil it is, Sir. The stink of evil from
below! From her! She's the devil's wife!
Beware of her sir. She, with no pity in
her heart!
(sung)
Hey, don't I know you mister?

[TURPIN, spoken]
Mr. Todd?
Where is she?

[TODD, spoken]
Below, your honor, with my neighbor.
Thank heavens the sailor did not molest
her. Thank heavens too, she has seen
the error
Of her ways

[TURPIN, spoken]
She has?

[TODD, spoken]
Oh, yes, your lesson was well learned.
She speaks only of you, longing for
forgiveness

[TURPIN, spoken]
Then she shall have it!
She'll be here soon, you say?

[TODD, spoken]
Yes!

[TURPIN, spoken]
Excellent, my friend!

[TODD, spoken]
How 'bout a shave?
Sit, sir, sit!

[TURPIN]
Oh, pretty women

[TODD]
Pretty women, yes!

[TURPIN]
Johanna, Johanna

[TODD]
Pretty women, pretty women are a
wonder.
Pretty women!

[TODD & TURPIN]
Pretty women, what would we do
For women

[TODD & TURPIN]
Blowing out their candles
Or combing out their hair

[TURPIN]
Then they leave

[TODD & (TURPIN)]
Even when they (even when they)
Leave they still (leave you and)
Are there, they're (vanish they)
There (somehow can still
Remain there with
You there)

[TURPIN, spoken]
How seldom it is one meets a fellow
spirit

[TODD, spoken]
With fellow taste... in women at least

[TURPIN, spoken]
What's that?

[TODD, spoken]
The years no doubt have changed me,
sir, but now I suppose the face of a
barber—the face of a prisoner in the
dark is not
Particularly memorable

[TURPIN, spoken]
Benjamin Barker!

[TODD, spoken]
BENJAMIN BARKER!

(sung)
Rest now my friend
Rest now forever
Sleep now the untroubled
Sleep of the angels

(spoken)
"Don't I know you", she said... you knew
she lived

[LOVETT, spoken]
I was only thinking of you

[TODD, spoken]
You lied to me

[LOVETT]
No, no, not lied at all
No I never lied

[(TODD) & LOVETT]
(Lucy) said she took a
Poison, she did
I've never said that she
Died! poor thing
(Come) she lived, but it
Left her weak in the
(Home) head all she did for
Months was just lie
Again there in bed. Should
Have been in
(Lucy!) hospital, wound up
In bedlam instead
(Oh my) poor thing, better
You should think she
(God) was dead, yes I lied
Cause I love you
(Lucy) I'd be twice the
Wife she was I
(What) love you. Could that
Thing have cared for
(Have I) you, like me?
(Done?)

[TODD]
Mrs. Lovett, you're a bloody wonder
Eminently practical and yet appropriate
as always
As you've said repeatedly there's
Little point in dwelling on the past

[TODD & (LOVETT)]
Now come here (do you mean it?)
My love (everything I did)
Nothing (I swear I thought)
To fear (was only for the)
My love (best. Belive me!)
What's dead (Can we still be)
Is dead (married?)

[TODD]
The history of the world, my pet

[LOVETT]
Oh, Mr. Todd
Oh, Mr. Todd
Leave it to me!

[TODD]
Is learn forgiveness
And try to forget

[LOVETT]
By the sea, Mr. Todd
We'll be comfy, cozy
By the sea Mr. Todd
Where there's no one nosy

[TODD]
Life is for the alive, my dear
So let's keep living it

[TODD & LOVETT]
Just keep living it

[TODD]
Really living it!

[LOVETT]
(screams)

[TODD]
There was a barber and his wife
And she was beautiful
A foolish barber and his wife
She was his reason and his life
And she was beautiful
And she was virtuous
And he was—
