(Lovett)Ooh, Mr. Todd
I'm so happy
I could
Eat you up
I really could
You know what I'd like to do, Mr. Todd?
What I dream?
If the business stays as good
Where I'd really like to go?
In a year, or so?
Don't you wanna know?
Do you really wanna know?
By the sea, Mr. Todd, that's life I covet
By the sea, Mr. Todd, Oh, I know you'd love it
You and me, Mr. T, we could be alone
In a house what we'd almost own
Down by the sea
(Todd)Anthing you say...
(Lovett)Wouldn't that be smashing?
Think how snug it'll be, underneath our flannel
When it's just you and me and the English Channel
In our cozy retreat, kept all neat and tidy
We'll have chums over every Friday
By the sea
Don't you love the weather?
By the sea
We'll grow old together
By the seaside
By the beautiful sea
It'll be so quiet
That who'll come by it
Except a seagull? Oh, oh!
We shouldn't try it
Until it's legal for two
But a seaside wedding could be devised
My rumple bedding, legitimized
My eyelids'll flutter
I'll turn into butter
The moment I mutter," I do!"
Down by the sea
Married nice and proper
By the sea
Bring along your chopper
To the seaside
By the beautiful sea
