Mack The Knife |
| Oh the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear |
| And he shows them pearly white |
| Just a jackknife has old Macheath, babe |
| And he keeps it outta sight |
| You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe |
| Scarlet billows start to spread |
| Fancy gloves, though, wears ol' Macheath, babe |
| So there's never, never a trace of red |
| Now, on the side walk, ooh Sunday morning, uh huh |
| Lies a body just oozing life, eek |
| And someone's sneaking 'round the corner |
| Could that someone be Mack the Knife? |
| There's a tugboat down by the river, don't you know |
| Where a cement bag's just a-drooping on down |
| Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear |
| Five'll get ya ten, ol' Mackie's back in town |
| Now did ya hear 'bout Louie Miller? |
| He disappeared, babe |
| After drawing out all his hard earned cash |
| And now Macheath spends just like a sailor |
| Could it be our boy's done something rash? |
| Now, Jenny Diver, ho ho, Suky Tawdry |
| Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and ol' Lucy Brown |
| Oh, the line forms on the right, babe |
| Now that Mackie's back in town |
| I said, Jenny Diver, woah, Suky Tawdry |
| Look out, Miss Lotte Lenya and ol' Lucy Brown |
| Yes, that line forms on the right, babe |
| Now that Mackie's back in town |
| Look out ol' Mackie is back |
