2023 Broadway Cast Recording - God, That's Good Lyrics

[Toby]
Ladies and gentlemen
May I have your attention, please?
Are your nostrils aquiver and tingling as well as that delicate, luscious, ambrosial smell?
Yes, they are, I can tell
Well, ladies and gentlemen
That aroma enriching the breeze
Is like something compared to its succulent source
As the gourmets among you will tell you, of course
Ladies and gentlemen you can't imagine the rapture in store
Just inside of this door!
There, you'll sample Mrs. Lovett's meat pies
Savory and sweet pies, as you'll see
You who eat pies Mrs. Lovett's meat pies
Conjure up the treat pies used to be!

[Customers]
Over here, boy
How about some ale?
Let me have another, laddie
Could we have some service, waiter?
Could we have some service?
What about that pie boy?

[Toby]
