Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street2007

Sweeney Todd:
[sings] There was a barber and his wife, / And she was beautiful. / A foolish barber and his wife. / She was his reason and his life, / And she was beautiful. / And she was virtuous. / And he was... naive. / There was another man who saw / That she was beautiful, / A pious vulture of the law, / Who with a gesture of his claw / Removed the barber from his plate. / Then there was nothing but to wait / And she would fall, / So soft, / So young, / So lost, / And oh, so beautiful.

Anthony Hope:
And the lady, sir, did she succumb?

Sweeney Todd:
[sings] Oh, that was many years ago... / I doubt if anyone would know.

[turns and speaks to Anthony]

Sweeney Todd:
I'd like to thank you, Anthony. If you hadn't spotted me, I would be lost on the ocean still.

Anthony Hope:
Will I see you again?

Sweeney Todd:
You might find me, if you like, around Fleet Street, I wouldn't wonder.

[looks down the street]

Anthony Hope:
[holds out his hand for Sweeney to shake] Until then, my friend. [Sweeney ignores Anthony and walks down the street]
