Mack the Knife
Mark Lanegan

Oh the shark yeah, pretty teeth dear

And he shows them pearly white

Just a jack knife has MacHeath, dear

And he keeps it out of sight


When that 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 once alive

Someone's sneaking around the corner

Is that someone Mack the knife?



Some are children of the darkness

Some are children of the sun

You can see the sons of daylight

Sons of dark are seen by none


And 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
