| Lyrics: | [From "Quiz Show"]
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? |
