Farben manufactured children's toys I never shot a Luger or goosed a single step Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka - Was you not an SS guard? - I was not an SS guard. I was not a Nazi Polka - Did you not love Ilsa Koch? - I did not love Ilsa Koch. I was not a Nazi Polka - Did you not despise the Jews? - I did not, some of my best friends.. I was not a Nazi Polka - Did you not think Adolf great? - I did not, Adolf who? - Adolf who? - Ja, Adolf who? - Fritz, you're putting me on. - Was bedeutet dieses 'putting me on'? - Are you kidding me or something? - Nein, I'm not kidding you. Adolf who? - Adolf Hitler! - Should I know him? Is he a folksinger? - You don't remember? - Nein, I don't remember him. Who was he? - Well.. A little man, very mean, very loud and brash - Mmm-mmm... Not too tall, he never smiled, wore a black mustache - Nein, I never heard.. He had a girl, Eva Braun, hair as red as flame - Ah, ja, ja. He papered walls for many years till his moment came - Of course! He's the one who clapped his hands, went into a dance When the news came to him that we had conquered France - That's him He once said, when our flag proudly was unfurled, "Today, Germany, tomorrow, the world! (Yeah!) Tomorrow, the world! (Yeah!) Tomorrow the world! (Yeah!) Tomorrow the world! (Yeah! Yeah!)" - I never heard of him - Neither did I To our Israeli allies let us raise a toast Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka Sure there were some Nazis, two or three at most Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka We tried to throw off Hitler right from the very start That's what every history book should tell We hated Heinrich Himmler, Martin Bormann too We believe as Sherman did that war is hell.. hell.. hell.. hell.. Heil!.. Heil!.. Heil!.. Sieg heil!.. Sieg heil!.. Sieg heil!! Germans are as gentle as flowers in the spring Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka Germans are a people who love to dance and sing Sing the I was not a Nazi Polka [Spoken] Wait a minute! Wait a minute! You there, you are not singing. You do not like to sing? Tell me, you still have a family in Germany, nicht wahr? Sing! Sing the I Was Not a Nazi Polka Sieg heil!
