Sweeney Todd - Den Of Thieves текст песни

Run down cobbled road

as fast as I could fly

with fast footstep and baited breath

away from the cry

stepped into a cellar

to shelter from the pace

when a hand slapped 'round my throat

and another 'round my face



Den of thieves

dropped into a den of thieves

dropped into this den of thieves

dropped into this den of thieves



Oh the leader of the gang

said what's this we have here

I looked around me

and I trembled in fear

for several dusty cut throats

were standin' in a line

It was blood they were after


and that blood it was mine



A barber it is

that I am by trade

like you I make my living

by the wielding of a blade

Take your seat by the fire on the floor

I'll give you a shave like you never had before



Oh, step up this way

each one did and took his turn

now its to late

for the den of thieves to learn

To have your beard removed

by the surgeon barber Todd

you sure get your throat cut

no one does a better job
