In the Shadow of Hitler 1934 Mix by Tyrants in Therapy Lyrics
In the Shadow of Hitler (1934 Mix) (2:25)
(M. Jaye / C. Friberg)
Verse 1
In the shadow of Hitler, on a boat to Murmansk
The ship’s band played ragtime
And you asked me to dance
In the shadow of Hitler
On that cold Arctic sea
They gave me my orders
For Rome Italy
Verse 2
In the land of the fascists
The trains ran on time
But it seemed the whole country
Was losing its mind
In the Shadow of Hitler
In times past and gone
I’m certainly glad
That I was not born
Bridge (spoken)
Ja it was not so good time for everybody
But for those of us who were lucky enough to be born blond
Oh la la, fresh orchids every morning, lots of schnaps for everybody
And plenty of shiny brass buttons, oh ja
And lots of heel clicking and goose stepping it was lots of fun
Lots of men in uniform all over Europe
And too bad we didn't get overseas
Verse 3
In the den of the fascists
All the trains ran on time
But it seemed the whole country
Every single Italian
Was losing its mind, oh yeah
Verse 4
In the Shadow of Hitler
In times past and gone
I’m certainly glad
That I was not born
And you should be too
