Wait - Shocking Blue

Wait

Mrs. Lovett (spoken)

It’s not much of a chair but it’ll do

Was was me poor Albert’s chair

Sat in it all day long he did till half his leg give

Out with gout

Sweeney Todd (spoken)

Why doesn’t the beadle come?

Before the week is out

That’s what he said

Mrs. Lovett (spoken)

He said ‘before the week is out'

It’s only Tuesday

(sung)

Easy now

Hush, love, hush

Don’t distress yourself

What’s your rush?

Keep your thoughts

Nice and lush

Wait

Hush, love, hush

Think it through

Once it bubbles, then

What’s to do?

Watch it close

Let it brew

Wait

I’ve been thinkin' flowers

Maybe daisies

To brighten up the room!

Don’t you think some flowers

Pretty daisies

Might relieve the gloom?

Ah, wait

Love, wait

Sweeney Todd (spoken)

And the judge?

When will I get to him?

Mrs. Lovett (spoken)

Can’t you think of nothin' else?

Always broodin' away on your wrongs

What happened heaven knows how many years ago!

(sung)

Slow, love, slow

Time’s so fast

Now goes quickly, see

Now it’s past!

Soon will come

Soon will last

Wait

Don’t you know

Silly man?

Half the fun is to

Plan the plan!

All good things

Come to those who can

Wait

Gillyflowers, maybe

'Stead of daisies…

I dunno though…

What do you think?
