No Place Like London
(sung)
(spoken)
[00:15.44] Antony
[00:16.32] I have sailed the world
[00:18.43] beheld its wonders
[00:20.83] from the Dardanelles,
[00:22.93] to the mountains of Peru,
[00:25.41] But there's no place like London!
[00:28.42] Sweeney Todd
[00:29.77] No place like London...
[00:32.45] Antony (spoken)
[00:34.06] Mr. Todd
[00:36.31] Sweeney Todd
[00:36.44] You are young...
[00:38.33] Life has been kind to you...
[00:44.41] You will learn.
[01:03.18] There's a whole in the world like a great black pit
[01:05.30] and the vermin of the world inhabit it
[01:07.39] and its morals aren't worth what a pin can spit
[01:09.54] and it goes by the name of London.
[01:13.29] At the top of the hole sit the previlaged few
[01:15.27] Making mock of the vermin in the lonely zoo
[01:17.36] turning beauty to filth and greed...
[01:19.55] I too have sailed the world and seen its wonders,
[01:24.79] for the cruelty of men is as wonderous as Peru
[01:29.07] but there's no place like London!
[02:19.34] There was a barber and his wife
[02:22.86] and she was beautiful...
[02:27.05] a foolish barber and his wife.
[02:30.49] She was his reason for his life...
[02:33.58] and she was beautiful, and she was virtuous.
[02:43.44] And he was nieve.
[02:59.36] There was another man who saw
[03:02.67] that she was beautiful...
[03:06.79] A biased vulture of the law
[03:10.27] who, with a gesture of his claw
[03:13.79] removed the barber from his plate!
[03:17.42] And there was nothing but to wait!
[03:22.05] And she would fall!
[03:24.41] So soft!
[03:25.55] So young!
[03:26.48] So lost and oh so beautiful!
[03:34.16] Antony (spoken)
[03:34.85] The lady, sir, did she, sir, comes
[03:37.53] Sweeney Todd (sung)
[03:38.91] Ah, that was many years ago...
[03:43.84] I doubt if anyone would know.
[03:58.96] Antony (spoken)
[04:02.25] But surely we will meet again before I am off to Plymouth?
[04:05.74] Sweeney Todd (spoken)
[04:07.38] If you want you may well find me around Fleet Street. I wouldn't wander.
[04:16.50] Anthony(spoken):Goodbye,my friend.
[04:23.17] Sweeney Todd(sung)
[04:30.41] There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
[04:32.41] and it's filled with people who are filled with shit!
[04:34.47] And the vermin of the world inhabit it!
