Let The Boy Go And Gloat
The judge sent him away for no reason
Apparently being in love is treason
He was gone away for so long
The words of his wife were often in song
I understood his feelings of
Hatred, jealousy, revenge, and love
Your skin was paler than that of most
When she first saw you she thought you a ghost
Your eye was deadly and odd
Such as your name Sweeney Todd
He slit the throats of innocent men
Now lets see if it happens again
"Don't I know you?" she asked in a tone
But all he wanted was the judge for his own
He slit her throat like all the others
Now he sees the blood that covers
His wife
Goodbye life
"You lied!" he accused
And now he used
His certain charm
Only to harm
The one person who cared
And all that they shared
Is gone
Let the boy slit his throat
Let the boy go and gloat
The eyes he killed were deadly and odd
The man he killed was Sweeney Todd
