Lisa Stansfield - Mack The Knife lyrics
(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 Lisa Stansfield - Mack The Knife - http://motolyrics.com/lisa-stansfield/mack-the-knife-lyrics.html
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)
