Bobby Darin - Mack the Knife [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Oh the shark has
Pretty teeth dear
And he shows them
Pearly white
Just a jackknife
Has old 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 never a trace of red

On the side walk Sunday morning
Lies a body just oozing life
Someone sneaking round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

From a tugboat by the river
A cement bag's dropping down
The cement's just for the weight dear
Bet'ya Mackies back in town

Louie Miller disappeared dear
After drawing out his hard earned cash
And now Macheath spends, just like a sailor
Could it be, our boy's done something rash?

Now, Jenny Diver, Suky Tawdry
Look out, Miss Polly Peachum, and ol' Lucy Brown
Oh the line forms on the right dears
Now that Mackies back in town
