history bombs - history bombs - history of wold war 2 (in one take) lyrics

[hitler’s secretary]
they await you my fuhrer
they await your truth

[hitler]
it is not the truth that matters, but victory

[moderator]
20 years after ww1 optimums would be undone
the faithful treat of versailles was all too easily defied
the depths of the great depression
fulled german unrest and aggression
and from 39 to 45
60 million more would lose their lives
but how did europe descend once more
from fragile peace to total war?
how was germany infected?
by a poisonous leader’s bleak objective
a leader who would instigate a regime of terror built on hate
come with us now as pursue the history bomb of world war 2

[hitler]
we must rise up and take a stand
bring glory to the fatherland
our children, this aryan race will save us from our past disgrace
cast out the jews they make us weak
guilty for our shameful defeat
we have suffered so dreadfully, let us now secure our destiny
[moderator]
hitler seized control of germany in 1933
and defied the treaty of versailles
rearming, and marching into the rhineland and austria
and invading czechoslovakia
in august 1939 with tensions rising across europe
he found an unlikely russian ally
in joseph

[hitler]
stalin may i propose a pact
our 2 great nations should not attack
fighting together will lay the foundation for our european domination

[stailn]
ok i will take this chance
forget an alliance with britain and france

[hitler]
good, to poland let’s attack quickly

[stailn]
and were split the land?

[hitler]
50/50
[moderator]
in september 1939, germany and russia invaded poland
with an agreement to divide the county between themselves
britain’s prime minister, neville chamberlain had always aimed to maintain peace with germany
but this time he could not ignore hitler’s aggressive intent

[neville chamberlain]
now with regards to the state of poland
i can assure you it’s all in hand
we must stay calm, i am quite sure
knowing herr hitler he’ll soon withdraw

[british secretary]
sir, sorry to b+tt in
it’s 11 o’clock we haven’t heard from berlin

[neville chamberlain]
good lord! we can’t hold back anymore
i have no choice we are at war

[moderator]
as britain and france prepared for war
german forces tore through western europe
with a new form of highly intensive warfare
known as blitzkrieg
they overran france with devastating speed
and by may 1940, the allies were forced back to the english channel
[british soldier 1]
now i’d heard about jerry’s famous blitzkrieg
but i never thought they’d attack with this speed!

[british soldier 2]
they’ve pushed us all the way back to the beaches
we’ve dumped our kit, now i’m down to my breeches!

[british soldier 1]
well we best keep going, i hope they’ve got some boats
there’s 300,000 tommies to float

[british soldier 2]
do you ever think we’ll return to this section

[british soldier 1]
who knows, right now there’s only one direction

[moderator]
against the odds, 300,000 allied troops were evacuated at dunkirk
but they left behind a lot of men and valuable equipment
with western europe overrun, britain now stood alone
and in the summer of 1940
hitler attempted a knockout blow to the royal air force
to pave the way for a full invasion of britain

[raf pilot 1]
by jove! they mean business this luftwaffe
i don’t think we’re far away from disaster

[raf air marshal]
yes they’re coming thick and fast
but our new spitfires are up to the task

[raf pilot 1]
i do hope you’re right, we must fight at all cost
if the raf fails all hope will be lost

[raf observer]
there’s another squadron over the channel!

[raf air marshal]
here we go, don’t amble, scramble!

[moderator]
hitler’s plan to invade britain was stopped in its tracks
as the raf held firm
much to the delight of britain’s new prime minister

[winstion church hill]
our finest hour!

[moderator]
german bombers continued to pound british cities
for months during the blitz without a breakthrough
eager for progress, hitler looked east

[hitlers secretary]
mein fuhrer, we’ve lost another bomber
i fear this blitz can’t last much longer

[hitler]
blast! in that case, we march east, to russia

[hitlers secretary]
stalin’s not going to like this!

[moderator]
in june 1941 german forces advanced against russian troops
who to this point have been on the same side
then, as if taking on one growing superpower was not enough
in december there was trouble in paradise
as u.s. forces in hawaii came under a surprise j+panese attack

[us air marshal 1]
what in the heck is going on?
these j+panese, they’re just too strong
they’ve taken out the battleships
and our planes are burnt out on the airstrip

[us air marshal 2]
a sneak attack? they’ve got some nerve
don’t worry they’ll get what they deserve
they’ve won this battle but watch out j+pan
you’ve just awoken uncle sam

[moderator]
the j+panese attack on pearl harbour
brought the usa into the war
this would prove pivotal
and in june 1942, the u.s. struck a decisive victory
over the j+panese at the battle of midway
in october, the allies would have further success
this time in the egyptian desert

[british soldier 1]
struth! this heat is berserk
the egyptian sun is even hotter than perth!

[british soldier 2]
toughen up mate, endure the pain
let’s get ready for the battel at el alamein

[british soldier 1]
the chances of victory are already slight
and now they expect us to fight ’em at night

[british soldier 2]
just put your faith in general montgomery
this is a man that could lead us to victory

[moderator]
the allies victory at el alamein proved a decisive turning point in the north africa campaign
meanwhile on the eastern front the germans were suffering
heavy losses in the snows of stalingrad
they were short of supplies
and the russians were resolute and determined
whilst hitler continued to send divisions east
in june 1944, the allies launched an ambitious attack in france

[us marine]
howdy y’all, get out the way
america’s here to save d+day
we got as many troops as you could want
to open up a second front
we’ll flood the beaches with our guys
and take the germans by surprise
our tanks and guns will never miss!

[raf pilot]
they’re never going to let us forget this

[moderator]
the d+day landings gave the allies a foothold in europe
from which they pushed towards germany
it wasn’t plain sailing, but after 11 months
on the 8th of may 1945, victory in europe was secured
whilst germany surrendered, j+pan refused to back down
and the usa decided to unleash two knockout blows

[us soldier]
my god! what have we done
hiroshima and nagasaki, well they’re just gone
the nuclear age has been unfurled
we are become death, destroyer of worlds

[moderator]
on the 15th august 1945, j+pan surrendered to save their lives
the entire world had been transformed
around this truly global war
countless lives in countless land
lost so that we might stand
together now the guns have ceased
as nations, side by side, in peace
