God, That's Good! lyrics

[Toby:]

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 something 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!

[Toby:]

Coming!

[Mrs Lovett:]

Ale there!

[Toby:]

Right, ma'am!

[Mrs Lovett:]

Quick, now!

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!

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 Toby:]

Eat them slow and feel the crust how thin

She rolled it

Eat them slow 'cause every one's a prize

Eat them slow 'cause that's the lot and now we sold it

Come again tomorow!

[Mrs Lovett:]

Hold It!

Bless my eyes!

Fresh supplies!

How about it, dearie?

[Toby:]

Is that a pie fit for a king

[Mrs Lovett:]

Be here in a twinkling!

[Toby:]

A wonderous Sweet

[Mrs Lovett:]

Just confirms my theory

[Toby:]

And most delectable thing?

[Mrs Lovett:]

Toby! God watches over us

Didn't have an inkling

Positively eerie

[Toby:]

You see why there's no meat pie

[Mrs Lovett:]

Toby!

Throw the old woman out!
