Lyrics[]
Slugworth:
Well now, Chief
I can see that you're a man of integrity
Chief:
Thank you
Slugworth:
But ask yourself this...
Have you got a sweet tooth?
Chief:
I do
Slugworth:
A hunger that you have to feed?
Fickelgruber:
Have you got a sweet tooth?
Chief:
I do
Fickelgruber:
Well, we've got everything you need!
Chief:
Mm
Prodnose:
Don't give me that conscience nonsense!
It's simply quid pro quo, so...
Slugworth:
A hundred of your favorites?
Chief:
Sorry, I'm afraid it's no!
Promised the wife I'd cut down on
chocolate, you know, I gotta get in shape
for the policeman's ball, so, ha-ha!
Slugworth:
But think about your sweet tooth
Chief:
I do. I've had it since I was a boy.
Fickelgruber:
Your naughty little sweet tooth
Chief:
It's true
Prodnose:
The only thing that brings you joy
Chocolatiers:
Don't look at your waistline! It's fine!
Chief:
Come on
Chocolatiers:
Who needs to see their toes?
Slugworth:
So, seven hundred boxes?
Chief:
That's a lot of chocolates
Mm-hmm, no!
Slugworth:
Alright, gentlemen, let's give it
the big sell.
Chocolatiers:
Have you got a sweet tooth? Me too!
Chief:
Fellas
Chocolatiers:
Have you got the hots for chocs?
Chief:
I do, really, yeah
Chocolatiers:
Do you think that candy's dandy?
Chief:
Oh yeah
Chocolatiers:
Well, we've got lots and lots
And lots and lots and lots!
Chief:
Why am I singing?
Chocolatiers:
If the wife's complaining, body-shaming,
It's amazing what a tailor can conceal...
Chief:
Keep your wretched chocolates!
Slugworth:
Eighteen hundred boxes?
Chief:
Oh, deal!
Gwennie: have I got a sweet tooth I do now now now now now now now now pow pow have I got a sweet tooth
