A little jig jig. A little bounce around the bush.

Johanna:
Green finch, and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it আপনি sing?
How can আপনি jubilate
sitting in cages
never taking wing?
Outside the sky waits
beckoning!
Beckoning!
Just beyond the bars...
How can আপনি remain
staring at the rain
maddened দ্বারা the stars?
How is it আপনি sing
anything?
How is it আপনি sing?
Green finch. and linnet bird,
nightingale, blackbird
How is it আপনি sing?
Whence comes this melody
constantly floating?
Is it rejoicing অথবা merely aloaming?
Are আপনি discussing?
অথবা fussing?
অথবা simply dreaming?
Are আপনি crowing?
Are আপনি screaming?
Ringdove and robinet
is it for wages?
গান গাওয়া to be sold?
Have আপনি decided it's safer in cages
গান গাওয়া when you're told?
My cage has many rooms
damask and dark...
Nothing there sings,
not even my lark.
Larks never will, আপনি know,
when they're captive.
Teach me to be more
adaptive.
Ah...
Green Finch, and Linnet Bird,
nightingale, blackbird,
teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly...
Let me sing.

I know there's already stories on here of how অনুরাগী found out about sweeney todd, but i thought id like to share mine.
About seven months ago, like around June, i was looking up twilight parodies/spoofs and came across the hillywood show's twilight parody.(at the time, i didnt really know who they were.) i thought "wow, that was incredible!" so i went 2 their website and started watching their vids. and all of আপনি who r a big অনুরাগী of johnny depp, you'll প্রণয় the show. so, i got 2 the sweeney todd episodes. i knew who sweeney todd was but i didnt really know the story. i just, আপনি know, thought that he was killing people for no apparent reason:P i started to really like the music. that led me to buy the cd. which led me to buy the movie. which then led me 2 buy the movie companion book. when it came out 2 theaters and when i saw the trailers, i didnt pay much attention to it. now i do! oh ya and this was also how i am a big অনুরাগী of johnny depp.
I would hane to say that Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett put the fun in dysfunctional. I loved how Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett would sing, dance and kill their customers on a daily bases like it was just a job. In my opinion Mrs. Lovett was দ্বারা all means the আরো evil out of the two.
I really felt bad for Mrs. Lovett because she loved Sweeney Todd so much and he did not even notice her. The only time he would pay attention to her was when he needed her to do something for him.
It really is a shame because Mrs. Lovett would have made a great wife for Sweeney Todd that is if he loved her at all because she loved him with all her হৃদয় even though she knew that he did not প্রণয় her and yet she would do anything for him.
