Mack The Knife

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear

And he shows them pearly white

Just a jackknife has Macheath, dear

And he keeps it out of sight

When the shark bites through his victim

Scarlet spreads amongst the green

But white gloves wears our Macheath, babe

And the blood is never seen

Seven children and their grandpa

In the fire near old Soho

Who's that creeping around the corner?

Doesn't speak and doesn't know

Solly Silverstein has vanished

Likewise other rich young men

And Macheath has all their money

Try and prove it if you can

Sookey Tawdry, Jenny Diver

Polly Peachum, Lucy Brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, dear

Now that Mackie's back in town

Oh, the shark has pearly teeth, babe

And he keeps them in his face

Just a jackknife has Macheath, babe

Keeps it in a different place
