I Never Loved Eva Braun by The Boomtown Rats Lyrics

[Intro]
"Are you really going out with Adolf?"

[Verse 1]
I never loved Eva Braun (Oh no?)
No, a thousand people say I did (Oh yeah?)
Yeah, she was just some girl who was on the make (Yes, we see)
Boy, she wanted to be so big
And in the end, it got to be a drag
She's doing her exercises every day
No matter what people say, say
I never loved Eva Braun

[Verse 2]
I never heard all the screams (Oh no?)
No, I never saw the blood and dirt and gore (Oh yeah?)
Yeah, that wasn't part of the dream (Yes, we see)
Of maps and generals and uniforms
I'd always liked the big parade
I always wanted to be adored
In '33 I knew I had it made
But I never loved
[Bridge]
Eva Braun wasn't history
Wasn't even part of my destiny
Never really fitted in the scheme of things
She was a triumph of my will
And Eva Braun wasn't history
Wasn't even part of my destiny
Never really fitted in the scheme of things
She was a triumph of my will, oh yeah!

[Verse 3]
I saw the blondies and the blue eyes, (Oh yeah?)
I saw the millions mouthing me (Oh yeah?)
But underneath, I was really gentle (Oh yeah?)
D'ya ever see me touch a scrap of meat?
Oh yeah, I conquered all those countries
They were weak an' I was strong
A little too ambitious maybe
But I never loved Eva Braun

[Instrumental Break]

"Gee..."
