Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Final Sequence
The engine roared the motor hissed
And who could see that the road would twist
In Sweeney's ledger the entries matched
A beadle arrived, and a beadle dispatched
To satisfy the hungry god
Of Sweeney Todd
The Demon Barber of Fleet
Street
Sweeney
Sweeney, Sweeney, Sweeney, Sweeney
Sweeney
City on Fire
Rats in the grass
And the lunatics yelling the the streets
It's the end of the world yes
City on fire
Hunchbacks dancing
Stirrings in the ground
And the whirring of giant wings
Watch out
Look
Blotting outh the moonlight
Thick black rain falling on the
City on fire
City on fire
City on fire
Will we be married on Sunday that's what you promised
Married on Sunday
That was last August
Kiss me
City on fire
Rats in the streets
And the lunatics yelling at the moont
It's the end of the world yes
City one fire
Hunchbacks kissing
Stirrings in the graves
And the screaming of giant winds
Watch out
Look
Crawling on the chimneys
Great black crows screeching at the
City on fire
City on fire
City on fire
Toby where are you love

Mr Todd
No one here
Where is this Mr Todd
No matter
He'll be back in a moment
For I trust him as I trust my right arm
Wait for him here
I'll return with the coach in less than half an hour
But they are after us still
What if they trace us here
Oh Anthony, please let me come with you
No my darling there is no safety for you on the street
But dressed in these sailors clothes who's to know it is I
No the risk is too great
Ah miss
Look at me
Look at me
Miss
Oh look at me please
Oh favor me
Favor me
With your glance
Ah, miss
Soon we'll be
Soon we'll be gone
And sailing the seas
And happily
Happily wed in France
And we'll sail the world
And see its wonders
From the pearls of Spain
To the rubies or Tivet
And then come home to London
And then home
Some day
Some day
And I'll be back before those lips have time to lose that smile
Beadle
Beadle
Where are you
Beadle dear
Beadle
Beadle deedle deedle deedle deedle dumpling
Beadle dumpling
Be-deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle
You
What are you doing here
Ah evil is here sir
The stink of evil
From below
From her
Beadle dear beadle
Out of here woman
She's the Devil's wife
Oh beware her sir
Beware of her
She iwht no pity in her heart
Out I say
Hey don't I know you
Mister
The Judge
I have no time
Where is she
Where is the girl
Below your Honor
In the care of my neighbor Mrs. Lovett
Thank haeavens the sailor did not molest her
Thank heavens too she has seen the error of her ways
She has?
Oh yes your lesson was well learned sir
She speaks only of you
Longing for forgiveness
And she shall have it
She'll be here soon you say
I think I hear her now
Oh excellent my friend
Is that her dainty footstep on the stair
I hear nothing
Yes, isn't that her shadow on the wall
Where
There
Primping
Making herself even prettier than usual
Even prettier
If possible
Oh pretty woman
Pretty women yes
Quickly sir a splash of bay rum
Sit sir sit
Johanna
Johanna
Pretty women
Hurry man
Pretty women are a wonder
You're in a merry mood again today barber
Pretty women
What we do for
Pretty women
Blowing out their candles
Or combing out their har
Then they leave
Even when they leave and vanish
They somehow
They still remain
Are there
They're There
How seldom it is one meets a fellow spirit
With fellow tasstes in women at least
What What was that
The years no doubt have changed me sir
But then I suppose the face of a barber
The face of a prisoner in the dock
Is not particularly memorable
Benjamin Barker
Benjamin Barker
Rest now my friend
Rest now forever
Sleep now the untroubled
Sleep of the angels
Lift your razor high Sweeney
Hear it singing Yes
Sink it in the rosy of righteousness
Die
Die
God in heaven Die
You
Can it be
How all the demons of Hell
Come to torment me
Quick into the oven with her
Why did you scream
Does the Judge live still
He was clutching holding on to me dress
But now he's finished
Leave them to me
Open the doors
Open the doors I say
No Don't go near her
What's the matter with you woman
It's only some meddling old beggar
Oh no
Oh God
Don't I know you she said
You knew she lived
From the moment I came into your shop
You knew my Lucy lived
I was only thinking of you
Lucy
Your Lucy
A crazy hag
Picking bones and rotten spuds out of alley ash cans
Would you have wanted to know that was all that was left of her
You lied to me
No no not lied at all
No I never lied
Said she took the poison
She did
Never said that she died
Poor thing
She lived
But it left her weak in the head (I've come home again)
All she did for months was just lie there in bed
Should've been in hospital (Lucy)
Wound up in Bedlam instead
Poor thing
Oh my God
Better you should think she was dead
Yes I lied 'cos I love you
I'd be twice the wife she was
I love you
Could that thing have cared for you like me (What have I done)
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
Do you mean it (No come hear my love)
Everything I did I swear (Not a thing to fear)
I thought was only for the best (My love)
Believe me (What's dead)
Can we still be married (is dead)
The history of the world my peet
Oh Mr Todd
Ohh Mr Todd
Leave it to me
Is learn forgiveness and try to forget
By the sea Mr Todd
We'll be comfy-cozy
By the sea Mr Todd
Where there's no one nosy
And life is for the alive my dear
So let's keep living it
Just keep living it
Really living it
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
Naive
Pat-a-cake
Pat-a-cake
Baker man
Bake me a cake
No bake me a pie
To delight my eye
And I will sigh
If the crust be high
Mr Todd
Pat him
And prick him
And mark him with B
And put him in the oven
For baby and me
And who could see that the road would twist
In Sweeney's ledger the entries matched
