Mack the Knife

oh, the shark, has, pretty teeth, dear....and he shows them, pearly white

Just a jackknife, has macheath, yeah.....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, yeah..so there's not a trace, hmmmm of red

On the sidewalk...sunday morning, ...lies a body oozin' life

Someone's sneakin' 'round the corner...is the someone, mack the knife?

From a tugboat.... by the river..... a cement bag's, droopin' down

Yeah, the cement's just for the weight, dear...bet you mack, he's back in town

Looky here louie miller, disappeared dear...after drawing, out his cash

And macheath spends, like a sailor...did our boy do, somethin' rash?

Sukey tawdry, jenny diver..lotte lenya, sweet lucy brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, dears.....now that macky's back in town

"take it satch"
