Are you really going out with Adolf?
|
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,
|
I never loved Eva Braun.
|
|
I never heard all the screams (oh no?)
|
I never saw the blood and dirt and gore (oh yeah?)
|
That wasn't part of the dream, (yes, we see)
|
Of maps and generals and uniforms.
|
I'd always like the big parade,
|
I always wanted to be adored,
|
In '33 I knew I had it made,
|
I never loved....
|
|
Eva Braun wasn't history,
|
She wasn't even part of my destiny
|
She never really fitted in the scheme of things
|
She was a triumph of my will,
|
Oh yeah!
|
|
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'ja ever see me touch a scrap of meat?
|
O yeah I conquered all those countries
|
They were weak an' I was strong
|
A little too ambitious maybe,
|
But I never loved Eva Braun.
|
Gee!
