The Meek Shall Inherit is a song in the musical. However, the song has been cut off and reduced in the 1986 film. The song's purpose is of Seymour getting guilt and worrying that he is only getting fame and fortune from Audrey II, who is a hungry plant that wants blood. It is sung by Seymour, Several agents, and the chorus girls Crystal, Ronette, and Chiffon test Seymour into the pivotal Faustian pact of the show. Seymour fights with himself about morality vs. material gain. At the end of the song, Seymour, metaphorically and actually, signs over his soul in order to keep the success all for Audrey's love, that he believes only exists in the presence of all his recently acquired money and success.
