Lyrics of Mack the Knife (X Factor Performance) by Stereo Kicks

Oh, that shark, Babe
Has such teeth, Dear
And it shows them pearly white
Just a Jackknife has macheath, Babe
And he keeps it out of sight.
When that shark bites, with his teeth, Dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Those fancy gloves, though
Wears ol macheath, Babe
And there′s never,
Never a trace of red.
On the sidewalk
Sunday morning, don't you know
Lies a body drained of red
Someone′s sneaking around the corner
Could that be our boy Mack the knife?
There's a tugboat down down down by the river don't you know
There′s a cement bag just holding on down
That cement it′s there, there for the Weight, Dear
Five'll get ya ten old Macky′s back in Town
Oh Jenny Diver, woah, oh Sukey Tawdry,
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya, and ole Lucy Brown
Yeah, that line forms on the right, Babe
Now that Macky is ...
Hey
Back in town
Look out old Macky is back
Writer(s): Marc Blitzstein, Kurt Weill, Eugen Brecht
