Die Moritat von Mackie Messer [English translation]

And the shark, it has teeth

and wears them in the face

and MacHeath, he has a knife

but the knife, it isn't seen.

But the shark's fins are

red when it spills blood.

Mack the Knife wears a glove

so that one doesn't see any crime.

One beautiful blue Sunday

a dead man lies on the shore

and a person goes round the corner

whom they call Mack the Knife.

And Shmul Meier is still missing

and so are many wealthy men

and Mack the Knife has his money

but no-one can prove anything about it.

Jenny Towler was found

with a knife in her breast

and on the embankment walks Mack

who knew nothing about anything.

And the big fire in Soho,

seven children and an old man -

in the crowd, Mack the Knife, whom

no one asks and who knows nothing.

And the juvenile widow

everbody knows her name

woke up and was raped -

Mack, what was your price?

Woke up and was raped -

Mack, what was your price?
