Epiphany

I had him

His throat was bare beneath my hands

No I had him

His throat was bare and he'll never come again

Easy now

Hush love hush

I keep telling you/wait

What's your rush/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 sh*t

And the vermin 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

Thought we all deserve to die

Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why

Because the lives of the wicked should be

Made brief

For the rest of us death will be a relief

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 'bout 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!

Sweeney's waiting

I want you

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
