josh groban - the barber and his wife lyrics
[todd]
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—
naïve
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!
[anthony, spoken]
and the lady, sir—did she succumb?
[todd]
oh, that was many years ago…
i doubt if anyone would know
(spoken)
now leave me, anthony, i beg of you. there’s somewhere i must go, something i must find out. now. and alone.
[anthony, spoken]
so long, then, mr. todd.
[todd]
there’s a hole in the world
like a great black pit
and it’s filled with people
who are filled with sh+t
and the vermin of the world
inhabit it…
