| Worst Pies in London |
| As well as being Mrs. Lovett's entrance, this song is a delightful, rangy, little number that describes Mrs. Lovett's not-so-successful business, and that of her competitor, Mrs. Mooney. |
| "Mind you, I can't hardly blame them...these are probably the..." |
| "Have to hand it to 'er. Wot I call, enterprise, poppin' pussys inta pies!" |
| "...but they transported 'im for life!" |
| The Barber and His Wife |
| My Friends |
 |
 |
| "I've come home...to find you waiting..." |
| "Man, you'd think it was a trick, finding poor, animals, wot are dying in the streets.." |
| "Arsenic! From the apothecary on the corner. I tried to help her, but she wouldn't listen to me..." |
 |
| A Little Priest |
| "Awful lot of fat..." "Only where it sat." |
| "Try the priest!" "Heavenly! Not as hearty as bishop, perhaps, but then, not as bland as curate, either." "Good for business, too, always leaves you wanting more. Trouble is, we only get it on Sundays." |
| Leave it to Soundheim to create perfect first-act closing numbers! "A Little Priest" finds Mrs. Lovett and Sweeney Todd dreaming about what kinds of people they can put in their pies. |
| "Is that squire on the fire?" "Mercy, no, Sir, look closer. You'll notice, it's grocer." |
| "Looks thicker. More like Vicar." "No, it has to be grocer, it's green!" |
| "Everybody shaves, so there sould be plenty of flavor!" |
| "and who are we to deny it in here?" |
