Lyrics and translation Cris Groenendaal, Frank Kopyc & Richard Warren Pugh - The Ballad of Sweeney Todd: "His Hands Were Quick, His Fingers Were Strong"




The Ballad of Sweeney Todd: "His Hands Were Quick, His Fingers Were Strong"
La Ballade de Sweeney Todd : « Ses mains étaient rapides, ses doigts étaient forts »
His hands where quick
Ses mains étaient rapides
His fingers strong
Ses doigts forts
It stung a little but not for long
Ça piquait un peu mais pas longtemps
And those who thought him a simple clod
Et ceux qui le pensaient simplet
Where soon reconsidering under the sod
Remettaient rapidement en question sous la terre
Consigned therewith a friendly prod
Consignés avec une poussée amicale
From Sweeney Todd
De Sweeney Todd
The demon barber of Fleet Street
Le démon barbier de Fleet Street
See your razor gleam, Sweeney
Vois ton rasoir briller, Sweeney
Feel how well it fits
Sentis comme il te va bien
As it floats across the throats
Alors qu'il flotte sur les gorges
Of hypocrites
Des hypocrites
