The Ballad of Sweeney Todd: “Sweeney Pondered and Sweeney Planned” lyrics

[COMPANY]
Sweeney pondered and Sweeney planned
Like a perfect machine 'e planned
Barbing the hook, baiting the trap
Setting it down for the Beadle to snap

Slyly courted 'im, Sweeney did
Set a sort of a scene, 'e did
Laying the trail, showing the traces
Letting it lead to higher places

[WOMEN]
Sweeney pondered and Sweeney planned
Like a perfect machine 'e planned
Slyly courted 'im, Sweeney did
Sweeney...

[MEN]
Laying the trail, showing the traces
Letting it lead to higher places
Slyly courted 'im, Sweeney did
Set a like a machine, a sort of a scene, 'e did
Sweeney...
