Lyrics

0:22There was a barber and his wife
0:26And he was beautiful
0:30A proper artist with a knife
0:33But they transported him for life
0:37And he was beautiful
0:52He had this wife ya see
0:54Pretty little thing
0:56Silly little nit
0:57Had her chance for the moon on a string
1:01Poor thing
1:05Poor thing
1:08There was this judge you see
1:11Wanted her like mad
1:12Everyday he'd send her a flower
1:16But did she come down from her tower
1:19Sat up there and sewed by the hour
1:22Poor fool
1:24Ah but there was worse yet to come
1:26Poor thing
1:35Well Beadle calls on her all polite
1:38Poor thing
1:40Poor thing
1:41The judge he tells her is all contrite
1:45He blames himself for her dreadful plight
1:48She must come straight to his house tonight
1:51Poor thing
1:53Poor thing
1:59Of course when she goes there
2:00Poor thing
2:01Poor thing
2:02They're having this ball all in masks
2:05There's no one she knows there
2:07Poor dear
2:07Poor thing
2:08She wanders tormented and drinks
2:11Poor thing
2:11The judge has repented she thinks
2:13Poor thing
2:14Oh where is Judge Turpin she asks
2:19He was there alright
2:20Only not so contrite
2:25She wasn't no match for such craft ya see
2:28And everyone thought it so droll
2:31They figured she had to be daft ya see
2:34So all of them stood there and laughed ya see
2:37Poor soul
2:40Poor thing
There was a barber and his wife
And he was beautiful
A proper artist with a knife
But they transported him for life
And he was beautiful
He had this wife ya see
Pretty little thing
Silly little nit
Had her chance for the moon on a string
Poor thing
Poor thing
There was this judge you see
Wanted her like mad
Everyday he'd send her a flower
But did she come down from her tower
Sat up there and sewed by the hour
Poor fool
Ah but there was worse yet to come
Poor thing
Well Beadle calls on her all polite
Poor thing
Poor thing
The judge he tells her is all contrite
He blames himself for her dreadful plight
She must come straight to his house tonight
Poor thing
Poor thing
Of course when she goes there
Poor thing
Poor thing
They're having this ball all in masks
There's no one she knows there
Poor dear
Poor thing
She wanders tormented and drinks
Poor thing
The judge has repented she thinks
Poor thing
Oh where is Judge Turpin she asks
He was there alright
Only not so contrite
She wasn't no match for such craft ya see
And everyone thought it so droll
They figured she had to be daft ya see
So all of them stood there and laughed ya see
Poor soul
Poor thing
