MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Seems a downright shame[00:07:32]

TODD (spoken):[00:07:32]

Shame?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Seems an awful waste[00:07:32]

Such a nice plump frame[00:07:32]

Wots his name has[00:07:32]

Had has[00:07:32]

Nor he can't be traced[00:07:32]

Business needs a lift[00:07:32]

Debts to be erased[00:07:32]

Think of it as thrift, as a gift[00:07:32]

If you get my drift[00:07:32]

Seems and awful waste[00:07:32]

I mean...with the price of meat wot it is[00:07:32]

When you get it, if you get it[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Ah[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Good you got it[00:07:32]

Take for instance Ms. Mooney and her pie shop[00:07:32]

Business never better using only p**sy cats and toast[00:07:32]

Now a p**sy's good for maybe six or seven at the most[00:07:32]

And I'm sure they can't compare as far as taste[00:07:32]

(simultaneously)[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Ms. Lovett, what a charming notion[00:07:32]

Eminently practical[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Well it does seem a waste![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

And yet appropriate as always[00:07:32]

Ms. Lovett, how I've lived without you all these years[00:07:32]

I'll never know![00:07:32]

How delectable![00:07:32]

Also undetectable![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Think about it[00:07:32]

Lots of other gentlemen'll soon be coming in for a shave[00:07:32]

Won't they?[00:07:32]

Think of[00:07:32]

All them[00:07:32]

Pies![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

How choice![00:07:32]

How rare![00:07:32]

For what's the sound of the world out there?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

What Mr. Todd, what Mr. Todd[00:07:32]

What is that sound?[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Those crunching noises pervading the air![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Yes, Mr. Todd, Yes Mr. Todd[00:07:32]

Yes all around[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

It's man devouring man, my dear![00:07:32]

BOTH:[00:07:32]

Then who are we to deny it in here?[00:07:32]

TODD (spoken):[00:07:32]

These are desperate times, Ms. Lovett[00:07:32]

And desperate measures are called for[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Here we are. Hot out of the oven[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

What is that?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Its priest[00:07:32]

Have a little priest[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Is it really good?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Sir, it's too good, at least[00:07:32]

Then again they don't commit sins of the flesh[00:07:32]

So it's pretty fresh[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Awful lot of fat[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Only where it sat[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Haven't you got poet or something like that?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

No you see the trouble with poet[00:07:32]

Is how do you know it's deceased?[00:07:32]

Try the priest![00:07:32]

Lawyer's rather nice[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

If it's for a price[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Order something else, though, to follow[00:07:32]

Since no one should swallow it twice[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Anything that's lean?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Well then if you're British and loyal[00:07:32]

You might enjoy royal marine[00:07:32]

Anyway it's clean[00:07:32]

Though of course it tastes of wherever it's been![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Is that squire on the fire?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Mercy no, sir, look closer[00:07:32]

You'll notice its grocer![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Looks thicker, more like vicar[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

No, it has to be grocer[00:07:32]

It's green![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

The history of the world, my love[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Save a lot of graves[00:07:32]

Do a lot of relatives favors[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Is those below serving those up above![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Everybody shaves so there should be plenty of flavors[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

How gratifying for once to know[00:07:32]

BOTH:[00:07:32]

That those above will serve those down below[00:07:32]

TODD (spoken):[00:07:32]

What is that?[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

It's fop[00:07:32]

Finest in the shop[00:07:32]

Or we have some shepherds pie peppered[00:07:32]

With actual shepherd on top![00:07:32]

And I've just begun[00:07:32]

Is the politician so oily it's served with a doily?[00:07:32]

Have one![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Put it on a bun[00:07:32]

Well you never know if it's going to run![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Try the friar![00:07:32]

Fried, it's drier![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

No![00:07:32]

The clergy is really too coarse and too mealy![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Then actor![00:07:32]

It's compacter![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Ah, but always arrives overdone[00:07:32]

(spoken) I'll come again when you have judge on the menu[00:07:32]

Have charity towards the world, my pet![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

Yes, yes, I know, my love[00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

We'll take the customers that we can get![00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

High-born and low, my love![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

We'll not discriminate great from small[00:07:32]

No, we'll serve anyone[00:07:32]

(simultaneously)[00:07:32]

MS. LOVETT:[00:07:32]

We'll serve anyone![00:07:32]

TODD:[00:07:32]

Meaning anyone![00:07:32]

BOTH:[00:07:32]

And to anyone[00:07:32]

At all![00:07:32]
