BEADLE:
The name is Todd...

ANTHONY:
We'd best not wait until Monday.

JUDGE:
Todd, eh?

JOHANNA:                                          BEADLE:
Sir, I concur,
And fully, too.                                     Sweeney Todd.

ANTHONY:
It isn't right.
We'd best be married on Sunday.

JOHANNA:
Saturday, sir,
Would also do.

ANTHONY:
Or else tonight.

JOHANNA:
I think I heard a noise.

ANTHONY:
Fear not.

JOHANNA:
I mean another noise!

ANTHONY:
Like what?

JOHANNA:                                        ANTHONY:
Oh, never mind,
Just a noise
Just another noise,                           You mustn't mind,
Something in the street                     It's a noise,
I'm a silly little                                 Just another noise,
Ninnynoddle-                                   Something in the street, you silly-

BOTH:
Kiss me!

JOHANNA:
Oh, sir...

ANTHONY:
We'll go to Paris on Monday.

JOHANNA:
What shall I wear?
I daren't pack!

ANTHONY:
We'll ride a train...

JOHANNA:
With you beside me on Sunday,
What will I care
What things I lack?

ANTHONY:
Then sail to Spain...

JOHANNA:                                          ANTHONY:
I'll take my reticule.
I'll need my reticule                            Why take your reticule?
You mustn't think                                We'll buy a reticule.
Me a fool                                           I'd never think
But my reticule                                   You a fool
Never leaves my side,                         But a reticule-
It's the only thing                                Leave it all aside
My mother gave me-                          And begin again and
Kiss me!                                            Kiss me!
Kiss me!
.                                                       I know a place where we can go
We'll go there,                                   Tonight.
Kiss me!                                            Kiss me!
We have a place where we can           We have a place where we can
Go tonight,                                         Go tonight.

BEADLE:
The name is Todd

JUDGE:
Todd?

JOHANNA:                                                     ANTHONY:
I loved you                                                    I loved you
Even as I saw you,                                         Even as I saw you,
Even as it does not                                         Even as it did not
Matter that I still                                            Matter that I did
Don't know your name, sir.                             Not know your name

Even as I saw you,
Even as it does not                                         Johanna...
Matter that I still                                             Johanna...
Don't know your name                                    Johanna...

Todd.

JOHANNA:
Anthony

JUDGE:
Todd, eh?

JOHANNA:                                                        ANTHONY:
I'll marry Anthony Sunday,                                 You marry Anthony Sunday,
That's what I'll do,                                            That's what you'll do,
No matter what!                                                No matter what!
I knew you'd come for me one day.                     I knew I'd come for you one day
Only afraid that you'd forgot.                              Only afraid that you'd forgot.

BEADLE:
Ladies in their sensitivities, my Lord...

JUDGE:
Pray lead the way.

BEADLE:
Have a fragile sensibility

JUDGE:
Just as you say.

JOHANNA:                                                   ANTHONY:
I feared you'd never come,                            Marry me, marry me, miss,
That you'd been called away,                        You'll marry me Sunday.
That you'd been killed,                                  Favour me, favour me
Had the plague,                                           With your hand.
Were in debtor's jail,                                    Promise,
Trampled by a horse,                                   Marry me, marry me,
Gone to sea again,                                       That you'll marry me
Arrested by the...                                         Enough of all this...

BEADLE:
When a girl's emergent,
Probably it's urgent...
Ladies in their sensitivities

JUDGE:
Todd...

JOHANNA:
Oh sir

ANTHONY:
Ah, miss

JOHANNA:                                             ANTHONY:
Oh, sir...
Oh, sir...                                               Ah, miss...
Oh, sir...                                               Ah, miss...
Oh, sir...                                               Ah, miss...
Oh, sir...                                               Ah, miss...
Oh, sir...                                               Ah, miss...
