As long as things sit
pretty over here
Don’t hesitate to dolefully
flatline over there
Don’t overstep
Cover your hole please,
but not in my glory…
…Don’t!
Deluge a chasm
Depart this dominion please
And slope off to your cesspit
Cesspits
Equal footing, as it would seem,
in pursuant to containing
the human sludge
Rank sludge, foul sludge,
the sludge
Standing of the near-immaculate
must still be shielded from
the unfortunate’s junk
Just junk, weird junk, the junk
As long as things sit
pretty over there
Passed off as equal footing
Cesspits

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear
And he shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old Macheath, babe
And he keeps it, out of sight
You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though, wears old Macheath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red
Now on the sidewalk, ooh, sunny morning, uh-huh
Lies a body just oozin' life
Eek, and someone's sneakin' 'round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There's a tugboat, down by the river, don't ya know
Where a cement bag's just a-droopin' on down
Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear
Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town
Now d'ya hear about Louie Miller?
He disappeared, babe
After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash
And now Macheath spends just like a sailor
Could it be our boy's done something rash?

I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
