various artists - a little priest كلمات الأغنية

[mrs. lovett]
that’s all very well, but what we gonna do about him?

[sweeney todd]
later on when it’s dark, we’ll take it to some secret place and bury him

[mrs. lovett]
oh yeah. of course we could do that
i don’t ‘spose he’s got any relatives gonna come pokin’ ’round lookin’ for him

seems a downright shame…

[todd]
shame?

[mrs. lovett]
seems an awful waste…
such a nice, plump frame
wot’s ‘is name has…
had…
has
nor it can’t be traced…
bus’ness needs a lift
debts to be erased…
think of it as thrift
as a gift
if you get my drift

seems an awful waste…
i mean, with the price of meat
what it is
when you get it
if you get it…

[todd]
ah!

[mrs. lovett]
good, you got it!

take, for instance, mrs. mooney and her pie shop!
bus’ness never better using only p-ssycats and toast!
now a p-ssy’s good for maybe six or seven at the most!
and i’m sure they can’t compare as far as taste!

(simultaneously)

[todd]
mrs. lovett, what a charming notion

[mrs. lovett]
well, it does seem a waste…

[todd]
eminently practical
and yet appropriate as always!

[mrs. lovett]
think about it…

[todd]
mrs. lovett, how i’ve lived
without you all these years, i’ll never know!
how delectable!
also undetectable!

[mrs. lovett]
lots of other gentlemen’ll
soon be comin’ for a shave
won’t they?
think of
all them
pies!

[todd]
how choice!
how
rare!
for what’s the sound of the world out there?

[mrs. lovett]
what, mr. todd?
what, mr. todd?
what is that sound?

[todd]
those crunching noises pervading the air!

[mrs. lovett]
yes, mr. todd!
yes, mr. todd!
yes, all around!

[todd]
it’s man devouring man, my dear!

[both]
and/then who are we to deny it in here?

[todd, spoken]
these are desperate times
mrs. lovett, and desperate measures are called for!

[mrs. lovett]
here we are, now! hot out of the oven!

[todd]
what is that?

[mrs. lovett]
it’s priest. have a little priest

[todd]
is it really good?

[mrs. lovett]
sir, it’s too good, at least!
then again, they don’t commit sins of the flesh
so it’s pretty fresh

[todd]
awful lot of fat

[mrs. lovett]
only where it sat

[todd]
haven’t you got poet, or something like that?

[mrs. lovett]
no, y’see, the trouble with poet is
‘ow do you know it’s deceased?
try the priest!

lawyer’s rather nice

[todd]
if it’s for a price

[mrs. lovett]
order something else, though, to follow
since no one should swallow it twice!

[todd]
anything that’s lean?

[mrs. lovett]
well, then, if you’re british and loyal
you might enjoy royal marine!
anyway, it’s clean
though of course, it tastes of wherever it’s been!

[todd]
is that squire, on the fire?

[mrs. lovett]
mercy no, sir, look closer
you’ll notice it’s grocer!

[todd]
looks thicker
more like vicar!

[mrs. lovett]
no, it has to be grocer —
it’s green!

[todd]
the history of the world, my love —

[mrs. lovett]
save a lot of graves
do a lot of relatives favors!

[todd]
is those below serving those up above!

[mrs. lovett]
ev’rybody shaves
so there should be plenty of flavors!

[todd]
how gratifying for once to know

[both]
that those above will serve those down below!

[todd]
what is that?

[mrs. lovett]
it’s fop
finest in the shop
and we have some shepherd’s pie peppered
with actual shepherd on top!
and i’ve just begun —
here’s the politician, so oily
it’s served with a doily
have one!

[todd]
put it on a bun
well, you never know if it’s going to run!

[mrs. lovett]
try the friar
fried, it’s drier!

[todd]
no, the clergy is really
too co-rs- and too mealy!

[mrs. lovett]
then actor
it’s compacter!

[todd]
ah but always arrives overdone!

(spoken)
i’ll come again when you have judge on the menu!

(sung)
have charity towards the world, my pet!

[mrs. lovett]
yes, yes, i know, my love!

[todd]
we’ll take the customers that we can get!

[mrs. lovett]
high-born and low, my love!

[todd]
we’ll not discriminate great from small!
no, we’ll serve anyone
meaning anyone

[both]
and to anyone
at all!
