letra de knocking shop tango - various artists

[macheath]
so long ago
and oh, so far away!
i can’t remember what we
used to be
the mists of time
have made it hard to see
but i loved her
and she made love for me!
a strange arrangement?
we managed okay
the punters came and went-
and when they came, they went
i took my cut
and the remainder paid the rent
it was perfection for my baby and me
when she had company
i’d make them tеa
it was the sweetest place thеre’s ever been-
our little knocking-shop in bethnal green

[macheath, spoken]
h-llo, sir, do you want some?
madam, can i offer you a job?
don’t be shy!
[jenny]
so far away
and oh, so long ago!
perhaps those days have faded-
hard to tell
and no-one there
would dare to cross macheath
when i complained
you punched me in the t–th!
yes, you were brutal
perhaps it was h-ll
there was his gambling and all the bills to pay
so i talked dirty over thirty times a day
while i faked passion ’til it made me sore
he’d take the cash and make me work for more
i never knew that you could be so mean
as in that knocking-shop in bethnal green…

[both]
since that fine day
so many have gone by

[jenny]
we have our share of wrinkles
you and i
[macheath]
when you were mine
the world was full of song

[jenny]
perhaps it was fine
till everything went wrong
we had the baby
but it didn’t last long
when i fell pregnant, it was festive for a day

[macheath]
but then we thought it best to wash it all away

[jenny]
the drunken doctor showed us what to do

[macheath]
we took the mess and put it down the loo

[both]
and for a while, a smile was rarely seen
around that knocking-shop in bethnal green
