Lyrics God, That's Good! - Angela Lansbury, Ken Jennings & Len Cariou



Ladies and gentlemen,
May I have your attention, please?
Are your nostrils aquiver and tingling as well
At that delicate, luscious ambrosial smell?
Yes they are, I can tell.
Well, ladies and gentlemen,
That aroma enriching the breeze
Is like nothing compared to its succulent source,
As the gourmets among you will tell you, of course.
Ladies and gentlemen,
You can't imagine the rapture in store
Just inside of this door!
There you'll sample
Mrs. Lovett's meat pies,
Savory and sweet pies,
As you'll see.
You who eat pies,
Mrs. Lovett's meat pies
Conjure up the treat pies
Used to be!
Over here, boy, how about some ale?
Let me have another, laddie
Tell me, are they flavorsome?
They are.
Isn't this delicious?
Right away.
Could we have some service over here, boy?
Could we have some service, waiter?
Could we have some service?
Yes, they are.

Minor adjustments

Minor adjustments

They'll take
You take your time,
A moment.

The crust all velvety and wavy,
That glaze, those crimps .. .
And then, the thick, succulent gravy. .
And now to test
One whiff, one glimpse .. .
This best of barber chairs . .
MRS. LOVETT:

So tender
That you surrender . .

Excuse me . .

When I pound the floor,
When you pound the floor
It's a signal to show
Yes you told me I know
That I'm ready to go,
When I pound the floor!
When you pound the floor
Won't you trust me
I just want to be sure.
Won't you trust me
When I'm certain that you're
In place
I'll be waiting below
For the whistle to blow . .
I'll pound three rimes.
Three rimes.
And then you
