IT’S beginning to look a lot like Hitler,
Everywhere you go;
Take a look around and then
Tell me once again
It’s something that you don’t already know.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Hitler,
Passes in every store;
But the ugliest sight you’ll see
Is the guard that will be
On your own front door.
A pair of big jackboots and a pistol that shoots,
Is the wish of Bill and Klaus;
Don’t you dare talk and don’t go for a walk
Is the order of Tony and Mark;
And Scott and Dan can hardly wait for camps to start again.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Hitler,
Everywhere you go;
There’s a tank by the Grand Hotel,
One in the park as well,
It’s the sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Hitler,
Soon the guns will start;
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the noise as they zing
Right towards your heart
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Passes in every store;
And the ugliest sight you’ll see
Is the guard that will be
On your own front door.
