There's a hole in the world
like a great black pit
and it's filled with people
who are filled with [bad word] 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 -
No, we all deserve to die!
Even you, Mrs. Lovett,
Even I.
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!!!!

All right! You, sir,
how about a [bad word] and visit your
good friend, Sweeney...!
You, sir, too, sir- [bad word] to the grave!
I will have vengeance,
I will have salvation!
Who, sir? You, sir?
No one’s in the [bad word] on [bad word] on, Sweeney's waiting!
I want you bleeders!
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!
