THEME SONGS TO POPULAR SITCOMS IF THE AXIS HAD WON WORLD WAR II

I.

They’re martial and they’re racial
They come from outer spatial
They’re really in-your-facial
The Goebbels family

In charge of propaganda
That’s heard across the landa
It’s their own special branda
The Goebbels family

White!
Right!
Recondite!

So if you’re into scarin’
Come see ‘em if you’re darin’
But only if you’re Aryan
The Goebbels family

II.

Whatever happened to good ol’ Hungary?
Poland, Austria, no Russians can I see
Everywhere you look, everywhere you go
There’s the Reich, a land to hold on to
Everywhere you look, everywhere you go
There’s some lebensraum for you
Everywhere you look
When you’ve enslaved the Slavs and you’re allied with Rome
A train is waiting to deport them from home
Everywhere you look, everywhere you look

III.

Who can run the world down with a tank?
Who can invade a neighbor state and turn control over to Hans Frank?
Well, it’s Hitler, and he sure knows it
With each act of warlike aggression he shows it

Europe’s all around, no need to waste it
You can have a town if you just take it
You’re gonna slaughter one and all!
