[00:00:00] Prelude: The Ballad of Sweeney Todd: 'Attend The Tale Of Sweeney Todd' (From 'Sweeney Todd') - Stephen Sondheim

[00:00:48] Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd

[00:00:52] His skin was pale and his eye was odd

[00:00:56] He shaved the faces of gentlemen

[00:00:58] Who never thereafter were heard of again

[00:01:01] He trod a path that few have trod

[00:01:04] Did Sweeney Todd

[00:01:07] The demon barber of Fleet Street

[00:01:15] He kept a shop in London Town

[00:01:19] Of fancy clients and good renown

[00:01:22] And what if none of their souls were saved

[00:01:25] They went to their maker impeccably shaved

[00:01:28] By Sweeney

[00:01:30] By Sweeney Todd

[00:01:33] The demon barber of Fleet Street

[00:01:41] Swing your razor wide Sweeney

[00:01:45] Hold it to the skies

[00:01:49] Freely flows the blood of those who moralize

[00:02:01] His needs were few his room was bare

[00:02:05] A lavabo and a fancy chair

[00:02:09] A mug of suds and a leather strop

[00:02:11] An apron a towel a pail and a mop

[00:02:14] For neatness he deserved a nod

[00:02:17] Did Sweeney Todd

[00:02:20] The demon barber of Fleet Street

[00:02:24] Inconspicuous Sweeney was

[00:02:26] Quick and quiet and clean he was

[00:02:28] Back of his smile under his word

[00:02:30] Sweeney heard music that nobody heard

[00:02:32] Sweeney pondered and Sweeney planned

[00:02:34] Like a perfect machine he planned

[00:02:36] Sweeney was smooth Sweeney was subtle

[00:02:37] Sweeney would blink and rats would scuttle

[00:02:40] Sweeney was smooth Sweeney was subtle

[00:02:41] Sweeney would blink and rats would scuttle

[00:02:45] Sweeney Sweeney Sweeney Sweeney

[00:02:49] Sweeney

[00:02:50] Sweeney Sweeney

[00:02:58] Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd

[00:03:04] He served a dark and a vengeful god

[00:03:09] What happened then well that's the play

[00:03:11] And he wouldn't want us to give it away

[00:03:15] Not Sweeney

[00:03:19] Not Sweeney Todd

[00:03:23] The demon barber of Fleet Street
