Nick Cave - Mack The Knife Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • See the shark with teeth like razors
  • And he wears them in his face
  • And Macheath has got a knife
  • But not in such an obvious place
  • Now see the shark, how red his fins are
  • As he slashes at his prey
  • Mack the Knife wears fancy gloves
  • Which gives a minimum away
  • By the Thames' turbid waters
  • Men abruptly tumble down
  • Well is it plague, or is it cholera
  • Or because Macky's in town?
  • And the child bride, in her nighty
  • Whose assailant's still at large
  • Violated in her slumbers
  • Macky how much did you charge?
  • In the ghastly fire in Soho
  • Seven children had a go
  • In the crowd stands Mack the Knife
  • But he isn't asked and he don't know
  • In the crowd stands Mack The Knife
  • But he ain't asked and he don't know
