lyrics

Well, Nietzsche and Dick Wagner
Were sittin' sipping dinner
Fred said I'm vegetarian and Dick replied
“You poor old sinner”

Nietzsche jumped up, smashed his plate with a hammer
And out he stormed
Wagner's wife came waltzing in
Cutting cake and shifting form

Well Bach and Beethoven
Were at each other's throats
Arguing over which one stole
The other one's favourite note

Beethoven said this ain't your F it's my A quadruple flat
Bach said you deaf old motherfucker I've had just about enough of that

Riefenstahl and Syberberg
Were outdoors making love
Said Syberberg to Reifenstahl
“Would you marry me my dove!”

Hans said to Leni how I dearly wish I could
But the only thing that I hate worse than you Nazis is Hollywood

Kinski and Herzog
Were chasing butterflies
Herzog looked deeply into
Kinski's deep blue eyes

He said give back my butterfly or I'll take these bullets nine
Put eight of them straight into you and the last one it is mine!

The Holocaust and Goethe
Were sitting shedding tears
Said Goethe to the Holocaust
“You really fucked things up, I fear”

“You know Nietzsche called me Superman but did I ever kill a Jew?”
The Holocaust said, “I told ya I'm sorry what else can I do?”

I have got the Bosch blues again
How can one old nation make such great and such evil men
Is it something in the water?
In the blood or in the soil?

Is the answer in old Luther's Bible
Or in Das Kapital?

I know that reasoning's circular and I'd fix it but here's the thang
Hitler's invited me to a tea party with the Baader Meinhof gang.
