Mack The Knife Lyrics - Lisa Stansfield

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, that someone's Mack the knife

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

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?

Oh the line forms on the right, dear 

Now that Macky's back in town
