Peachum’s Morning Hymn Lyrics by C. K. Alexander

The Threepenny Opera

1976

[PEACHUM]
You ramshackle Christian, awake!
Go on with your sinful employment
Show what a fine crook you can make
God will soon cut short your enjoyment
Betray your own brother, you rogue
And sell your old woman, you rat
You think the Lord God's just a joke?
You'll suffer His judgment for that
