Mack the Knife (Live)

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear

And he shows them pearly white

Just a jackknife has Macheath, dear

And he keeps it way out of sight

When that shark bites with its teeth, dear

Scarlet billows begin to spread

Fancy gloves though, wears our Macheath, babe

So there's never, never, ever a trace of red

On the sidewalk, one sunny mornin'

Lies a body oozin' life

Someone's sneakin' 'round that corner

Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

Oh, there's a tugboat down, it's down by the river, don't you know?

Where the cement bag drooppin' on down

Ooh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear

Five will get ya ten, old Mackie's back in town

Did ya hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe

After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash

Now Macheath spends, he spends like a sailor

Could that boy have done somethin' rash?

Jenny Diver, look out, Suky Tawdry

Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Oh, that line forms on the right, babe

Now that Mackie's, Mackie's back in town

Jenny Diver, Suky Tawdry

Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, babe

Now that Mackie's back in town

I said look out, old Mikey is back
