Lisa Stansfield - Mack The Knife - Текст песни

(K. Weill/B. Brecht/M. Blitzestien) 


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


When the shark bites with his teeth, dear

Scarlet billows start to spread

Fancy gloves though wears MacHeath, dear

So there's not a trace of red


On the sidewalk, Sunday morning

Lies a body oozing life

Someone's sneaking round the corner

I'll bet that someone, someone's Mack the knife


From a tug boat by the river

A cement bag's dropping down

The cement's just, just for the weight, dear

Bet you, I'll bet you Mack is back in town


Louie Miller, he disappeared, dear

After drawing out his cash

And MacHeath spends like a sailor

Did the boy, did the boy do something rash?


Sukey Tawdry, Jenny Diver

Polly Peachum, and Lucy Brown

Oh the line forms on the right, dear

Now that Macky's back in town (x2)
