lyle lovett - moritat (mack the knife) lyrics
(bertolt brecht/kurt weill)
as performed by lyle lovett for the film quiz show:
see the shark with teeth like razors
you can read his open face
and macheath, he’s got a knife, and
in such an obvious place
on a beautiful blue sunday,
see a corpse stretched in the strand
see a man dodge ’round the corner…
mackie’s friends will understand.
mr. meier reported missing
like so many wealthy men:
mack the knife acquired his cashbox
god alone knows how or when
jenny towler, she turned up lately
with a knife stuck through her breast
while macheath, he walks the embankment,
nonchalantly unimpressed
and the ghastly fire in soho,
seven children at a go–
in the crowd stands mac the knife, but
he isn’t asked, he doesn’t know
and the child bride in her nightgown,
whose -ssailants still at large
violated in her slumbers
mackie how much did you charge?
yes, the child bride in her nightgown
whose -ssailants still at large
violated in her slumbers
mackie how much did you charge?
mackie how much did you charge?
how much did you charge?
how much did you charge?
how much did you charge?
how much did you charge?
