Sweeney Todd Musical Soundtrack Lyrics
Ah, Miss
ANTHONY:
I have sailed the world,
Beheld its wonders,
From the pearls of Spain
To the rubies of Tibet,
But not even in London
Have I seen such a wonder . . .
Lady look at me look at me miss oh
Look at me please oh
Favor me favor me with your glance.
Ah, miss,
What do you what do you see off
There in those trees oh
Won't you give won't you give me a chance?
Who would sail to Spain
For all its wonders,
When in Kearney's Lane
Lies the greatest wonder yet?
Ah, miss,
Look at you look at you pale and
Ivory-skinned oh
Look at you looking so sad so queer.
Promise
Not to retreat to the darkness
Back of your window
Not till you not till you look down here.
Look at
ANTHONY:
Me!
Look at
Me!
Look at me...
JOHANNA:
Green finch and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
Teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly,
Let me sing ...
BEGGAR WOMAN:
Alms! ... Alms! ...
For a miserable woman ...
Beg your pardon, it's you, sir ...
Thank yer . . . Thank yer kindly . . .
ANTHONY:
One moment, mother. Perhaps you know whose house this is?
BEGGAR WOMAN:
That! That's the great Judge Turpin's house, that is.
ANTHONY:
And the young lady who resides there?
BEGGAR WOMAN:
Ah, her! That's Johanna, his pretty little ward. But don't you go trespassing
there, young man. Not if you value your hide. Tamper there and it's a good
whipping for you — or any other youth with mischief on his mind.
Hey! Hoy! Sailor boy!
Want it snugly harbored?
Open me gate, but dock it straight,
I see it lists to starboard.
