See the shark with teeth like razors You can read his open face And Macheath, he's got a knife, and In such an obvious place On a beautiful blue Sunday, See a corpse stretched in the Strand See a man dodge 'round the corner Mackie's friends will understand. Mr. Meier reported missing Like so many wealthy men: Mack the knife acquired his cashbox God alone knows how or when Jenny Towler, she turned up lately With a knife stuck through her breast While Macheath, he walks the embankment, Nonchalantly unimpressed And the ghastly fire in Soho, Seven children at a go-- In the crowd stands Mac the knife, but He isn't asked, he doesn't know And the child bride in her nightgown, Whose assailants still at large Violated in her slumbers Mackie how much did you charge? Yes, the child bride in her nightgown Whose assailants still at large Violated in her slumbers Mackie how much did you charge? Mackie how much did you charge? How much did you charge? How much did you charge? How much did you charge? How much did you charge?
