Anthony: I have sailed the world beheld its wonders from the Dardanelles, to the mountains of Peru, But there's no place like London! Sweeney Todd: No, there's no place like London. You are young... Life has been kind to you... You will learn. There's a hole in the world like a great black pit and the vermin of the world inhabit it and its morals aren't worth what a pig could spit and it goes by the name of London. At the top of the hole sit the privileged few Making mock of the vermin in the lonely zoo turning beauty to filth and greed... I too have sailed the world and seen its wonders, for the cruelty of men is as wonderous as Peru but there's no place like London! There was a barber and his wife and she was beautiful... a foolish barber and his wife. She was his reason for his life... and she was beautiful, and she was virtuous. And he was nieve. There was another man who saw that she was beautiful... A biased vulture of the law who, with a gesture of his claw removed the barber from his plate! And there was nothing but to wait! And she would fall! So soft! So young! So lost and oh so beautiful! Ah, that was many years ago... I doubt if anyone would know. There's a hole in the world like a great black pit and it's filled with people who are filled with shit! And the vermin of the world inhabit it!
