Mack the Knife

Oh the shark has pretty teeth, dear

And he shows them pearly white

Just a jack knife has MacHeath, dear

And he keeps it out of sight

When the shark bites with his teeth, dear

Scarlet billows start to spread

Fancy gloves though wears MacHeath, dear

So there's not a trace of red

On the sidewalk, Sunday morning

Lies a body oozing life

Someone's sneaking round the corner

I'll bet that someone, that someone's Mack the knife

From a tug boat by the river

A cement bag's dropping down

The cement's just, just for the weight, dear

Bet you, I'll bet you Mack is back in town

Louie Miller, he disappeared, dear

After drawing out his cash

And MacHeath spends like a sailor

Did the boy, did the boy do something rash?

Sukey Tawdry, Jenny Diver

Polly Peachum and Lucy Brown

Oh the line forms on the right, dear

Now that Macky's back in town

Now that Macky's back in town
