Lirieke: Sweeney Todd. A String Of Pearls. Toby Or Not Toby.

This is Toby my apprentice boy
he's fucking lazy but he's my pride and joy
He'd better keep his nose clean or there'll be a tear
He'd better keep it wiped
or I'll cut his throat from ear to ear

I know his mother, I know her well
I'll keep her secret and I won't tell
She'd better keep her mouth shut the sweet little dear
She'd better keep it shtum
or I'll cut her throat from ear to ear

Toby or not Toby
that is the question
whether you live or pie
depends on you attestation

I know his mother, I know her well
I'll keep her secret and I won't tell
She'd better keep her mouth shut the sweet little dear
She'd better keep it shtum
or I'll cut her throat from ear to ear
She Knows I will..........I really will
