Song Lyrics, take three: Because I am too lazy to try to resurrect the old one. So sue me.
Basically self explanatory, I would imagine. You post lyrics... to songs... Mainly I use these threads to (try) to rid myself of Ear Worms.

You're so nice...
You're not good,
You're not bad,
You're just nice.
I'm not good,
I'm not nice,
I'm just right.
I'm the Witch.
You're the world.
I'm the hitch.
I'm what no one believes,
I'm the Witch.
You're all liars and theives,
Like his father,
Like his son will be, too--
Oh, why bother?
You'll just do what you do.
It's the last midnight,
So, goodbye all.
Coming at you fast, midight-
Soon you'll see the sky fall.

MRS. LOVETT:
(spoken) 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 you think we had the plague!
From the way that people
Keep avoiding --
No you don't!
Heaven knows I try, sir!
Ick!
But there's no one comes in even to inhale!
Right you are, sir, would you like a drop of ale?
Mind you, I can't hardly blame them!
These are probably the worst pies in London!
I know why nobody cares to take them,
I should know,
I make them,
But good? No!
The worst pies in London,
Even that's polite!
The worst pies in London,
If you doubt it, take a bite!
Is that just disgusting?
You have to concede it!
It's nothing but crusting!
Here, drink this, you'll need it!
The worst pies in London...
And no wonder with the price of meat
What it is
When you get it
Never
Thought I'd live to see the day
Men'd think it was a treat
Findin' poor
Animals
Wot are dyin' in the street!
Mrs. Mooney has a pie shop!
Does a business but I notice something weird.
Lately all her neighbors' cats have disappeared!
Have to hand it to her --
Wot I calls
Enterprise
Poppin' pussies into pies!
Wouldn't do in my shop!
Just the thought of it's enough to make you sick!
And I'm tellin' you, them pussycats is quick!
No denying times is hard, sir
Even harder than the worst pies in London!
Only lard and nothing more --
Is that just revolting,
All greasy and gritty?
It looks like it's molting,
And tastes like,
Well, pity
A woman alone,
With limited wind,
And the worst pies in London!
Ah, sir, times is hard,
Times is hard!
Been stuck in my head for so long!!!
(April 21, 2010 - 1:58 pm)
Mrs. Lovett, what a charming notion
Well, it does seem a waste
Emminently practical and yet appropriate as always
It's an idea
Mrs. Lovett, how I've lived without you
All these years, I'll never know
How delectable! Also undetectable!
Think about it, lots of other gentlemen
Will soon be coming for a shave
Won't they?
Think of
How choice!
All them
How rare!
Pies!
For what's the sound of the world out there?
What, Mr. Todd
What, Mr. Todd
What is that sound?
Those crunching noises pervading the air?
Yes, Mr. Todd
Yes, Mr. Todd
Yes, all around
It's man devouring man, my dear
(Both) And who are we to deny it in here?

Yes, grrr. Woke up and then I noticed I was singing "My Friends" and didn't even know.
My Friends
Sweeney Todd
These are my friends.
See how they glisten.
See this one shine...
How he smiles in the light.
My friend.
My faithful friend...
Speak to me friend.
Whisper...
I'll listen.
I know, I know you've been locked
out of sight
all these years, like me
My friend...
well I've come home to find you waiting.
Home, and we're together!
And we'll do wonders.
Won't we?
You there, my friend?
Mrs. Lovett
I'm your friend too, Mr. Todd
If you only knew, Mr. Todd
Ooh, Mr. Todd
You're warm in my hand.
You've come home!
Always had a fondness for you, I did.
Sweeney Todd (simultaneously)
Come let me hold you.
Now, with a sigh, you grow warm in my hand.
My friend!
My clever friend...
Mrs. Lovett
Never you fear, Mr. Todd
You can move in here, Mr. Todd
Mr. Todd, splendors.
You never have dreamed
all your days
will be yours!
I'm your friend
and you're mine!
Don't they shine beautiful?
Silver's good enough for me, Mr. T.
Sweeney Todd (simultaneously)
Rest now, my friends.
Soon, I'll unfold you.
Soon you'll know splendors
You never have dreamed
all you days,
my lucky friends
'Til now your shine was merely silver.
Friends, you shall drip rubies, you'll soon drip precious rubies...
(spoken)
At last! My arm is complete again!
(April 22, 2010 - 8:42 pm)
...Sweeney Todd alternately terrifies and interests me.
(April 23, 2010 - 3:00 pm)
It is awesome. But it is bloody and has a certain humor that not everybody (my mom) appreciates. Listen to the epic songs and then, when you have enough courage and it is daylight outside go watch the movies. Again and again and again...
(April 23, 2010 - 9:24 pm)
And if you're iffy with blood, start with the filmed stage, with Angela Lansbury and George Hearn, before you watch the Tim Burton version, which disturbed even my father, who is fond of and frequently makes use of black humor.
Which is a common misconception, I've noticed, among those who haven't ever been exposed to Sweeney Todd. People assume that just because it's about an Axe Crazy killer and his accomplice who tricks people into becoming *cough* humanitarians, it can't be funny. Because it is funny. Especially Priest, my goodness. God That's Good, in the filmed stage especially, is hilarious. And By The Sea literally had me in tears of laughter by the end. In both versions. And anything the utterly clueless Anthony says is hilarious by way of context. /ranting
Random: Jamie Cullum recently did a cover of Not While I'm Around. It is amazing (though nothing on Edward Sanders, of course).
(April 23, 2010 - 10:09 pm)
Adina! You've seen Sweeney Todd! Thank you, for giving me more ways to convince my mom to let me see it... All I saw was the cover. JDepp+HBC+ARickman+TBurtan=Need to see. Yes. And it's been in my house! And I didn't see it! Real gore: Mom: "Oh yes, this is a historical video! I didn't know they'd have realy gore in this! In a movie about a war! Oh, you can't watch Sweeny Todd. It's fake gore. Real gore is different. It's real! Real gore won't scare you as much because you know it happens and it can happen! To you! Did I mention you can't watch Sweeney Todd it has fake gore, and you can't see that! Plus all the other humourous stuff in it that I know you already know about! Yay! I love making it so my daughter can't watch things she really wants to watch that I think are inapropriate for her! Yay again!" That is simply what Mom says. My dad's trying to convince my mom to let me see Sweeney Todd. He said he was going to get it for me for my birthday, but he didn't because that would make Mom mad... I will see it before the end of this year, I tell you, I will!
Now, for the song. Short, but I don't care.
Draco: "Next year you'll bet, gonna get out a here / The rein of Malfoy is drawing near / I'll have a great wizard carreer/ It's gonna be totally awaesome/ Look at the world from the dawn of the day / Where everyone will do whatever I say / And Potter won't be in my way / And then I'll be the the one who is totally awaesome!" Goyle: "You'll be the one who is totally awaesome"
Sorry. Probably have incorrect lines and things. Correct me if you want.
Good-bye,
Meadow de Wierdo

:) humanitarians. This made me laugh.
(April 27, 2010 - 4:00 pm)
I loves George Hearn <3 Yes, Mary, you shoud watch the stage version first. It has a lot less blood (it comes out of the knife when you press a button.So cool!). Mr. Burton, did a wonderful job directing but his judgment was lacking in the blood department. Meadow, I think you can easily convince your mom to let you watch the stage version of Sweeney Todd. And theeeeeeen you could watch the movie and know when the blood comes so you can close your eyes! :)
@ Meadow: A VERY POTTER SEQUEL IS ALMOST OUT!!!
Did you know the Ed Sanders decided that acting is not his thing. He is now a sound engineer and goes to college. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! And he is old now. He's iike two whole years older then TNO. He wood have made the perfect Artemis Fowl if he was still little.Oh the Agony! [cue song]
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
Did I abuse her
Or show her disdain?
Why does she run from me?
If I should lose her,
How shall I regain
The heart she has won from me?
Agony!
Beyond power of speech,
When the one thing you want
Is the only thing out of your reach.
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
High in her tower,
She sits by the hour,
Maintaining her hair.
Blithe and becoming and frequently humming
A lighthearted air:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-
Agony!
Far more painful than yours,
When you know she would go with you
If there only were doors.
[BOTH]
Agony!
Oh, the torture they teach!
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
What's as intriguing-
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
Or half so fatiguing-
[BOTH]
As what's out of reach?
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
Am I not sensitive,
Clever,
Well-mannered,
Considerate,
Passionate,
Charming,
As kind as I'm handsome
And heir to a throne?
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
You are everything maidens could wish for!
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
Then why no-?
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
Do I know?
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
The girl must be mad!
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
You know nothing of madness
Till you're climbing her hair
And you see her up there
AS you're nearing her,
All the while hearing her:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-
[BOTH]
Agony!
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
Misery!
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
Woe!
[BOTH]
Though it's different for each.
[CINDERELLA'S PRINCE]
Always ten steps behind-
[RAPUNZEL'S PRINCE]
Always ten feet below-
[BOTH]
And she's just out of reach.
Agony
That can cut like a knife!
I must have her to wife.

I know the Tim Burton version is rated R... judging from the imdb parents' guide (which says probably not for ages under 17) my mom would never let me watch it. (Although I read the first few pages of the script and now am intrigued. I also know the ending and the basic storyline and it is sooo saaad.) Does the stage version have a rating?

(I dunno if this is going to work with your name.)
You're tall and fun and pretty
You're really, really skinny

(No, it just doesn't work!)
I'm the Mickey to your Minnie
You're the Tigger to my Winnie
Ginny
Wanna take you to the city
Gonna take you out to dinney
Ginny
You're cuter than a giunea pig
Wanna take you up to Winnipeg
That's in Canada!

Speaking of which, is there a way to download the soundtrack for AVPM? I watched it and love it but it's sadly not on iTunes.
(April 26, 2010 - 7:28 pm)
It's available on their website. Just google starkidpotter.
The stage version is unrated, but much, much more tame than the Tim Burton version. But still brilliant.
(April 27, 2010 - 1:59 pm)
*is embarrassed* Yes... I found it and downloaded it to the computer a few weeks ago, but then had no idea what to do next. Do you move it to iTunes or something?
So yesterday I watched Sweeney Todd clips on YouTube and I think it is becoming a new obsession with me... today in social studies I found myself suggesting that during the Plague in medieval Europe, instead of burying people in the "ditches" our textbook spoke of, they could have baked them into pies. Gianna was extremely frightened, I believe.
(April 28, 2010 - 2:49 pm)
Er... if you're on a Mac you should just be able select all the mp4 files and double click and they'll load into iTunes automatically. Not sure about Windows but I'd imagine it would be rather similar... If that doesn't work, right click on the files and see if there's an option to import to iTunes or something in that vein. Or select all and then drag into the iTunes library.
Re: "Humanitarianism": Yeah... It's got to the point with me that all my friends make cannibalism jokes whenever they see me eating meat or pie gets mentioned.
Random: Meat pie is actually quite delicious, especially cold. Especially home-made. Mmm beef and carrots and potato and homemade crusts... <3
