The Lyrics

ziss iss off kourse sung mit a ferry tick geurman accent
deh'res a jackboot lyin dehr in de street,
I'm a geurman herr, dat's tuff to beat
deh'rs a deli place zo buy me zumzing to eat
I'll pay you at anoder toim..
maybe vit a euro mit slime


ze vall it came down hart vun day
now zey sell it's pieces dehr online at e-bay
but vee don't grumple, folks are ze same
ve treat it like some anti-reich svine
every botty's doin dehr time..

take me down to de edelweiss city
vehr der grass is green and de geuhls are pretty
oh take me home

vonce ve had heuer some bad gas chamber
J.D.L. alvays says to remember
hansel und gretel story vee ditt weave
voss de difference? I just kant see?
we love peace now, you gotta belieff

take me down to de edelweiss city
vehr der grass is green and de geuhls are pretty
oh take me home

zo far avay
zo far avay
zo far avay
zo far avay

now ze country hass been torn apart
sing "uber alles" and zey tell you "don't start"
ze operas here are too hard on ze heart
I must be loosing moi mind ( am I blind?)
repeat viss me a million times

take me down to de edelweiss city
vehr der grass is green and de geuhls are pretty
oh take me home

take me down to de edelweiss city
vehr der grass is green and de geuhls are pretty
oh take me home

Have you heard the original song? This parody does not contain nearly all of the song and borrows too heavily from Paradise City.

The author of the parody has authorized comments, and wants YOUR feedback.
