Lyrics

Oh my!
 Them 'andles is chase silver ain't they?
 Silver
 Yes...
 These are my friends
 See how how they glisten
 See this one shine
 How he smiles in the light
 My friend...
 My faithful friend.
 
 Speak to me, friend:
 Whisper,
 I'll listen
 I know, I know,
 You've been locked out of sight all these years!
 Like me, my friend.
 Well, I've come home
 to find you waiting!
 Home...
 And we're together...
 And we'll do wonders
 Won't we?
 You there, my friend
 I'm your friend, too, Mr Todd
 Come let me hold you
 If you only knew, Mr Todd
 Now with a sigh you grow...
 Ooh Mr Todd, you're
 Warm in my hands
 My friend!
 You've come home!
 My clever friend!
 Always had a fondness for you, I did.
 Rest now, my friends
 Never you fear, Mr Todd.
 Soon I'll unfold you
 You can move in here Mr Todd.
 Soon you'll know
 Splendours you never have dreamed all your days
 Will be yours!
 My lucky friends!
 I'm your friend
 'Til now your shine
 Don't they shine beautiful?
 Was merely silver
 Silver's good enough for me, Mr T.
 You shall drip rubies.
 You'll soon drip precious
 Rubies...
 ♪
 (Spoken) At last, my arm is complete again!
 Lift your razor high, Sweeney
 Hear it singing, yes!
 Sink it in the rosy skin of righteousness!
 His voice was soft, his manner mild.
 He seldom laughed, but he often smiled.
 He'd seen how civilised men behaved.
 He never forgot and he never forgave.
 Not Sweeney,
 Not Sweeney Todd.
 The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
