The Worst Pies in London |
A customer! |
Wait! |
What’s your rush? |
What’s your hurry? |
You gave me such a… fright! |
I thought you was a ghost! |
Half a minute, can’t ya sit? |
Sit ya down! |
Sit! |
All I meant is that I haven’t seen a customer for weeks |
Did ya come here for a pie, sir? |
Do forgive me if me head’s a little vague |
What was that? |
But you’d think we’d have the plague |
From the way that people keep avoiding |
No, you don’t! |
Heaven knows I try, sir! |
But there’s no one comes in even to inhale |
Right you are, sir, would you like a drop of ale? |
Mind you I can hardly blame them |
These are probably the worst pies in London |
I know why nobody cares to take them |
I should know |
I make 'em |
But good? |
No… |
The worst pies in London… |
Even that’s polite! |
The worst pies in London! |
If you doubt it take a bite! |
Is that just disgusting? |
You have to concede it |
It’s nothing but crusting |
Here drink this, you’ll need it |
The worst pies in London |
And no wonder with the price of meat |
What it is |
When you get it |
Never thought I’d live to see the day |
Men’d think it was a treat findin' poor animals |
What are dyin' in the street |
Mrs. Mooney has a pie shop |
Does a business but I notice something weird |
Lately, all her neighbors cats have disappeared |
Have to hand it to her! |
What I calls enterprise! |
Poppin' pussies into pies! |
Wouldn’t do in my shop! |
Just the thought of it’s enough to make you sick |
And I’m telling you them pussycats is quick |
No denying times is hard, sir! |
Even harder than the worst pies in London |
Only lard and nothing more |
Is that just revolting? |
All greasy and gritty? |
It looks like it’s molting |
And tastes like… Well, pity |
A woman alone! |
With limited wind |
And the worst pies in London! |
Ah, sir |
Times is hard |
Times is hard! |
