  • Oh, the shark has pearly teeth, dear
  • And he shows them, pearly white
  • Just a jack knife has macheath, dear
  • And he keeps it out of sight
  • Oh, the shark bites with his teeth, dear
  • Scarlet billows start to spread
  • Fancy gloves though, wears macheath dear
  • So theres not, not a trace of red
  • On a sunday, sunday morning
  • Lies a body, oozin life
  • Someones sneaking round the corner
  • Tell me could it be, could it be, could it be
  • Mack the knife?
  • Oh, whats the next chorus?
  • To this song, now
  • This is the one, now
  • I dont know
  • But it was a swinging tune
  • And its a hit tune
  • So we tried to do mack the knife
  • Ah, louis miller
  • Oh, something about cash
  • Yeah, miller, he was spending that trash
  • And macheath dear, he spends like a sailor
  • Tell me, tell me, tell me
  • Could that boy do, something rash
  • Oh bobby darin, and louis armstrong
  • They made a record, oh but they did
  • And now ella, ella, and her fellas
  • Were making a wreck, what a wreck
  • Of mack the knife

  • We told you look out, look out, look out
  • Old macheaths back in town
