Epiphany

No I had him!
His throat was there beneath my hand
I had swear I had him!
His throat was there and now he'll never come again.

Easy now, hush love hush
I keep telling you
When? Why do 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 put in his proper place
And the one with his foot in the other one's face
Look at me, Mrs Lovett, look at you.

No we all deserve to die
even you,Mrs Lovett, even I
Because the lives of the wicked should be made brief
For the rest of us death will be a relief
We all deserve to die.

And I'll never see Joanna
No I'll never hold my girl to me finished!
(shouted) Alright! You sir, you sir, how about a shave?
Come and visit your good friend Sweeney
You sir, too sir? Welcome to the grave!

I will have vengenance
I will have salvation
(shouted) Who sir, you sir?!
No one in the chair, come on! Come on!
Sweeney's waiting. I want you bleeders
You sir - anybody!
Gentlemen now don't be shy!

Not one man, no, nor ten men
Nor a hundred can assuage me
I will have you!
And I will get him back even as he gloats
In the meantime I'll practice on less honorable throats
And my Lucy lies in ashes
And I'll never see my girl again.

But the work waits!
I'm alive at last!
And I'm full of joy!
