[00:00.00]Isn't that a room over the shop?
[00:02.06]If times are so hard, why don't you rent it out?
[00:04.66]People think it's haunted.
[00:06.75]Haunted?
[00:08.64]And who's to say they're wrong? ...
[00:12.71]You see, years ago, something happened up there.
[00:16.05]Something not very nice...
[00:19.55]
[00:21.59]There was a barber and his wife,
[00:25.11]And he was beautiful,
[00:29.19]A proper artist with a knife,
[00:32.47]But they transported him for life.
[00:36.36]And he was beautiful...
[00:41.23]Barker, his name was -- Benjamin Barker.
[00:45.78]What was his crime?
[00:48.05]Foolishness
[00:50.85]He had this wife, you see,
[00:54.62]Pretty little thing,
[00:54.88]Silly little nit
[00:57.17]Had her chance for the moon on a string --
[01:00.73]Poor thing. Poor thing
[01:07.48]There was this Judge, you see,
[01:10.72]Wanted her like mad,
[01:12.24]Every day he’d send her a flower,
[01:14.73]But did she come down from her tower?
[01:18.28]Sat up there and sobbed by the hour,
[01:21.67]Poor fool.
[01:24.78]Ah, but there was worse yet to come,
[01:25.83]Poor thing.
[01:33.49]The Beadle calls on her, all polite,
[01:38.09]Poor thing, poor thing.
[01:40.77]The Judge, he tells her, is all contrite,
[01:44.75]He blames himself for her dreadful plight
[01:48.08]She must come straight to his house tonight!
[01:51.32]Poor thing, poor thing.
[01:57.38]Of course, when she goes there,
[02:00.05]Poor thing, poor thing,
[02:01.53]They're having this ball all in masks.
[02:03.98]There's no one she knows there,
[02:06.23]Poor dear, poor thing,
[02:07.80]She wanders tormented, and drinks,
[02:09.92]Poor thing.
[02:11.06]The Judge has repented, she thinks,
[02:13.06]Poor thing.
[02:14.00]“Oh, where is Judge Turpin?” she asks.
[02:16.67]He was there, all right--
[02:19.81]Only not so contrite!
[02:21.28]She wasn’t no match for such craft, you see,
[02:27.43]And everyone thought it so droll.
[02:29.89]They figured she had to be daft, you see,
[02:33.59]So all of ‘em stood there and laughed, you see,
[02:36.29]Poor soul!
[02:38.40]Poor thing!
[02:42.20]
[02:44.60]
[02:47.96]NOOOOOOOO...
[02:50.28]Would no one have mercy on her?
[02:54.54]So it is you -- Benjamin Barker.
[02:57.14]No, not Barker.
[03:00.84]That man is dead.
[03:02.53]It's Todd now.
[03:04.46]Sweeney Todd ...
[03:06.11]And he will have his revenge.
