[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
