Mack The Knife
Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dearAnd he shows them pearly whiteJust a jackknife has old MacHeath, babeAnd he keeps it, ah, out of sightYa know when that shark bites with his teeth, dearScarlet billows start to spreadFancy gloves, oh, wears old MacHeath, babeSo there's never, never a trace of red

He disappeared, babeAfter drawin' out all his hard-earned cashAnd now MacHeath spends, he spends just like a sailorCould it be our boy's done somethin' rash?
