Patti LuPone - Wait lyrics

rate me

Mrs. Lovett: [Spoken]

Kinda bare, isn't it? Inever did like a bare room. Oh,

well, we'll find some nice little knickknacks.

Todd: [Spoken]

Why doesn't the Beadle come? "Before the week is out,"

that's what he said.

Mrs. Lovett: [Spoken]

And who says the week's out yet? It's only Tuesday.

Easy now.

Hush, love, hush.

Don't distress yourself,

What's your rush?

Keep your thoughts

Nice and lush.

Wait.

Hush, love, hush.

Think it through.

Once it bubbles,

Then what's to do?

Watch it close.

Let it brew.

Wait.

I've been thinking, flowers--

Maybe daisies--

To brighten up the room.

Don't you think some flowers,

Pretty daisies,

Might relieve the gloom?

Ah, wait, love, wait.

Todd: [Spoken]

And the judge? When will I get to him?

Mrs. Lovett: [Spoken]

Can't you think of nothing else? Always broodin' away

on your wrongs what happened heaven knows how many

years ago!

Slow, love, slow.

Time's so fast.

Now goes quickly--

See, now it's past!

Soon will come.

Soon will last.

Wait.

Don't you know,

Silly man,

Half the fun is to

Plan the plan?

All good things come to

Those who can

Wait.

Gillyflowers, maybe,

'stead of daisies.

I don't know, though.

What do you think?

Todd: [Spoken]

Yes.

Mrs. Lovett: [Spoken]

Gillyflowers, I'd say. Nothing like a nice bowl of gillies...
