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.
On the sidewalk Sunday morning
Lies a body oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Is the someone Mack the Knife?
Louis Miller disappeared, dear
After drawing out his cash
And Macheath spends like a sailor
Did our boy do something rash?
From a tugbout by the river
A cement bag's dropping down
The cement's just for the weight, dear
Betcha Mackie's back in town
Sukey Tawdry, Jenny Diver
Polly Peachum, Lucie Brown:
Oh, the line forms on the right, dear
Now that Mackie's back in town
