Song for (as) Mrs Lovett (it's not Stephen Sondheim's, it's just a fan- me ;))

posted by NelenaBlack666

You've stolen whatever I've ever been.
You're the King of crime and I'll never be your Queen.
Now it's too late again.
Trust is never to regain.
I conceed, my love is still there.
About revenge only I too came to care.
"We all deserve to die?", don't we?
So why would feelings change so suddenly?
Even you, even I.
Then, I suspect another lie.
Come and hurt me, my dear.
There's no one to protect me here.
I'm not afraid of you anymore.
What are you waiting for?
There's nothing for me in life.
'Cause of me, you've killed her, since I'll never be your wife.

Why!
Why is everything a lie?
And we can't leave it for...

Just something silly...

I was in the Random spot and was asked to write a random story. "Have a Little Priest" was playing on my iPod, so I decided to base it off the movie.

There was a barber and his wife, and she was beautiful. She took her barber husband out for lunch every thursday into Nelly's meat pie shop. Little did they know, they weren't eating meat pies at all! They were really eating rotten cherry pie. You see, Nelly Lovette had a difficult time obtaining meat for her pies, so she secretly started gathering cherries. Once she ran out of her entire supply of meat, she turned to the cherries. She noticed...

How I found about ST (complicated story!)

posted by Drakkoholic

So,now I start my story about Sweeney Todd.

In February 2007 my class went to the cinema.We watched a Bully Herbig movie....Before the movie starts,the trailer of Sweeney Todd appears.I was so falle in love with Sweeney Todd there :P
My enemy was so scared of the trailer.After watchin the Bully movie my enemy wanted to beat me up,then I ran behind a big poster of ST.He was scared again...
Few days later I forgot the name of my "love".Since July 2007!(That was the date,when the DVD was in Austria.)I saw the article in a video/DVD magacine and I remembered him!!!Then one week before my 15th b-day I watched ST!What a feeling to see my "skunkman" again!Then the obsession started!

Then I had a lot of styles....

MRS. LOVETT:
A customer!
Wait! What's your rush? What's your hurry?
You gave me such a -- Fright, I thought you was a ghost!
Half a minute, can'tcher sit! Sit you down, sit!
All I meant is that I haven't seen a customer for weeks!
Did you come here for a pie, sir?
Do forgive me if me head's a little vague--
(Ugh! What is that?) But...

epiphany

I had him!
His throat was there beneath my hand.
No, I had him!
His throat was there and now he'll never come again.
Mrs. Lovett: Easy now, hush love hush
I keep telling you, Whats your rush?
Todd: When? Why did I wait?
You told me to wait -
Now he'll never come again.
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And it's filled with people who are filled with shit
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...

Alms Alms
Beggar Woman

Alms, alms for a miserable woman!
On a miserable chilly morning
Thank ya, sir thank ya

Antony (spoken)

Mam, could you tell me who’s house this is?

Beggar Woman (spoken)

That? That's the great Judge Turpin's house, that is.

Antony (spoken)

And the young lady who resides there?

Beggar Woman (spoken)

Oh her? That' Johanna, his pretty little ward...
Keeps her snug he does. All locked up.
So don't you go trespassin' there or it’s a good whipping for you
or any other young man with mischief on his mind!
(sung)
How would ya like a little muff dear
A little jig jig. A little bounce around the bush.
Wouldja like to push me parsley? It looks to me dear that you got plenty there to push.
Alms! Alms! For a desperate woman!

green finch, linnet bird

Johanna:
Green finch, and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
sitting in cages
never taking wing?
Outside the sky waits
beckoning!
Beckoning!
Just beyond the bars...
How can you remain
staring at the rain
maddened by the stars?
How is it you sing
anything?
How is it you sing?
Green finch. and linnet bird,
nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
Whence comes this melody
constantly floating?
Is it rejoicing or merely aloaming?
Are you discussing?
Or fussing?
Or simply dreaming?
Are you crowing?
Are you screaming?
Ringdove and robinet
is it for wages?
Singing to be sold?
Have you decided it's safer in cages
singing when you're told?
My cage has many rooms
damask and dark...
Nothing there sings,
not even my lark.
Larks never will, you know,
when they're captive.
Teach me to be more
adaptive.
Ah...
Green Finch, and Linnet Bird,
nightingale, blackbird,
teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly...
Let me sing.
