the chad mitchell trio - i was not a nazi polka lyrics

wenn sie durch die schöne deutschland gehen
einen gesang werden sie hören
es gibt eine kleine melodie in deutschland
für fünfzehn oder zwanzig jahre

[spoken]
as you travel through die schöne deutschland
(wenn sie durch die schöne deutschland gehen)
a melody will greet your ears
(einen gesang werden sie hören)
it’s a melody that’s been around in deutschland
(es gibt eine kleine melodie in deutschland)
for fifteen to twenty years
(für fünfzehn oder zwanzig jahre)

each and every german dances to the strain
of the i was not a n-z- polka
all without exception join in the refrain
of the i was not a n-z- polka

goering was a crazy we wanted to deport
sing the i was not a n-z- polka
we all thought that dachau was just a nice resort
sing the i was not a n-z- polka

the german is so cultured, he does not like to fight
the peaceful life is what he most enjoys
for years the german people were utterly convinced
i.g. farben manufactured children’s toys

i never shot a luger or goosed a single step
sing the i was not a n-z- polka
sing the i was not a n-z- polka
sing the i was not a n-z- polka

– was you not an ss guard?
– i was not an ss guard
i was not a n-z- polka
– did you not love llsa koch?
– i did not love ilsa koch
i was not a n-z- polka
– did you not despise the jews?
– i did not, some of my best friends..
i was not a n-z- 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 dieser ‘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! (ja!) tomorrow, the world! (ja!) tomorrow the world! (ja!) tomorrow the world! (ja! ja!)”
– i never heard of him
– neither did i

to our israeli allies let us raise a toast
sing the i was not a n-z- polka
sure there were some n-z-s, two or three at most
sing the i was not a n-z- 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 h-ll.. h-ll.. h-ll.. h-ll..
heil!.. heil!.. heil!.. sieg heil!.. sieg heil!.. sieg heil!!

germans are as gentle as flowers in the spring
sing the i was not a n-z- polka
germans are a people who love to dance and sing
sing the i was not a n-z- 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 n-z- polka
sieg heil!
