Wait Lyrics - Sweeney Todd

It's not much of a chair but it'll do 

It was me poor Albert's chair 

Sit in it all day long he did 

After his leg give out with gout 

Why doesn't the beadle come? 

"Before the week is out." 

That's what he said 

Who says the week's out? 

It's only Tuesday 

Easy now, hush, love, hush 

Don't distress yourself, what's your rush? 

Keep your thoughts, nice and lush 

Wait 

Hush, love, hush, think it through 

Once it bubbles then what's to do? 

Watch it close, let it brew 

Wait 

I've been thinking flowers, maybe daisies 

To brighten up the room 

Don't you think some flowers, pretty daisies 

Might relieve the gloom? 

Ah, wait, love, wait 

And the judge? 

When will I get to him? 

Can't you think of nothing else? 

Always broodin' away on your wrongs 

What happened heaven knows how many years ago 

Slow, love, slow, time's so fast 

Now goes quickly, see, now it's past 

Soon will come, soon will last 

Wait 

Don't you know, silly man 

Half the fun is to plan the plan 

All good things come to those who can 

Wait 

Gillyflowers, maybe 

'Stead of daisies 

I don't know, though 

What do you think?
