Lyrics God, That's Good! - Michael Ball , Imelda Staunton
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!
MRS.
LOVETT
Toby!
Coming!
MRS.
LOVETT:
Ale
there!
Right,
ma'am!
MRS.
LOVETT:
Quick,
now!
MRS.
LOVETT:
Nice
to
see
you,
dearie
. .
How
have
you
been
keeping?
...
Cor,
me
bones
is
weary!
Toby—!
One
for
the
gentleman
.. .
Hear
the
birdies
cheeping
—
Helps
to
keep
it
cheery
.. .
Toby!
Throw
the
old
woman
out!
MRS.
LOVETT:
What's
my
secret?
Frankly,
dear
— forgive
my
candor
—
Family
secret,
All
to
do
with
herbs.
Things
like
being
Careful
with
your
coriander,
That's
what
makes
the
gravy
grander
-!
MRS.
LOVETT
and
TOBIAS:
Eat
them
slow
and
Feel
the
crust,
how
thin
I
(she)
rolled
it!
Eat
them
slow,
'cos
Every
one's
a
prize!
Eat
them
slow,
'cos
That's
the
lot
and
now
we've
sold
it!
Come
again
tomorrow
—!
MRS.
LOVETT:
Hold
it
—
Bless
my
eyes
—!
Fresh
supplies!
How
about
it,
dearie?
Be
here
in
a
twinkling!
Just
confirms
my
theory
—
Toby—!
God
watches
over
us.
Didn't
have
an
inkling
.. .
Positively
eerie
.. .
TOBIAS
(with
Mrs.
Lovett
above):
Is
that
a
pie
Fit
for
a
king,
A
wondrous
sweet
And
most
delectable
thing?
You
see,
ma'am,
why
There
is
no
meat
pie
MRS.
LOVETT:
Toby!
Throw
the
old
woman
out!
