English lyrics
[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 would spit
And it goes by the name of london...
At the top of the hole sit a 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 wondrous 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 and his life...
And she was beautiful,
And she was virtuous.
And he was naive.
There was another man who saw
That she was beautiful...
A pious vulture of the law
Who, with a gesture of his claw,
Removed the barber from his plate!
Then 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..
Magyar dalszveg
[Anthony]
Lttam a vilg ezer csodjt
Messzi szakot s a dli fltekt
Neked nincs prod London!
[Sweeney Todd]
Neked nincs prod, London.
Ifj vagy B s bn nem ksrt
Fog majd mg
Van a Fldn egy mly, bzs lyuk
s az aljn milli rt patkny fut
Az erklcs ott szhoz sem jut
s e lyuk neve, tudd meg: London.
Mg a freg-tmeg a srban tr
A kosz tetejn l nhny r
Minden szpbe s jba gyilkot szr.
A sok csodt megnztem n is
s br ezer meg ezer
Fert van a Fld tekn
Egy sem oly rt, mint London.
lt itt egy frfi s egy n
Szpsges, gi lny…
A frfi borbly volt, a n
Frjt a mennybe emel…
Szpsges, gi lny… A n ernyes volt
S a borbly… naiv…
Kvnta ms is ezt a h
Szpsges, gi lnyt…
Egy br, rabl kesely
Rt terve igen egyszer
A trvny szavra lesjt
A borbly fegyencsorra jut
S a br vr
Reml, hogy knny prda mr
Az gi lny!
Nincs mr, ki emlkezne mg
Mindenki elfeledte rg
Van a Fldn egy mly, bzs lyuk
Oda hordjk a npek minden mocskuk
s az aljn milli rt patkny fut…
