Aryan Jew

Aryan Jew, don't know what to do
can't say "Sieg Heil" in Hebrew
Dad's in the party and Mom's in the oven
how many miles to Bergen-Belsen?

Beer hall putsch was just the start
started to worship that moustachioed fart
mom belonged to the temple of Bethel
Heinrich, Joseph, I knew them so well.

What's an eighteen year old to do?
I should in camp cause I'm half Jew
mom is starving and dad is well fed
father's alive, but mom is almost dead.

Got a black uniform, a red arm-band
I play trumpet in a Nazi band
don't know about the chambers and the ovens
how many miles to Bergen-Belsen.

Got a big nose and I've got straight blond hair
I don't know how I got all those
and as my parents go up into smoke
I don't really care.

My verse! My verse!
Do it know--do it poetry form

My father's side rules the class
my mother's side was made into wax
their light doth shine for the song tonight
the candle that burns gives off her light.
