[From "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 assailants still at large

Violated in her slumbers

Mackie how much did you charge?



Yes, the child bride in her nightgown

Whose assailants still at large

Violated in her slumbers

Mackie how much did you charge?



Mackie how much did you charge?

How much did you charge?
