HITLER'S MUSTACHE
(Mrs. Robert Grimoldby)
There's a war on o'er in Europe,
And it's creating quite a splash,
It's caused by a man that is adorned
With a little black mustache,
It really is a work of art,
Groomed by the master hand
Of little Adolph Hitler,
Its fame has spread to every land.
There's lots of boys enlisting
For they want to take a crack
At Hitler's little black mustache,
And they want to bring it back.
But we are going to beat them to it,
And when we meet Adolph,
We are going to all surround him
And pull that mustache off.
Then we will paste it on a white post-
card,
Before it starts to roam,
For it's going to grace the mantel
Of the fire place at home,
And our friends are going to wonder
How such a work of art
Ever got attached to such a face,
Above such a wicked heart.
Then we are going to stand Adolph in
line,
And the cannon it will spit.
Don't you think that it would be a
shame
To blow that black mustache to bits,
So tonne boys, let's get going,
Before it is all gone,
Every shell will leave it shorter
As they go zipping on and on.
So Adolph old boy be sure to bid
That mustache a fond adieu,
For you're going to shed some bitter
tears,
When it's taken away front you.

Of the fire place at home,
And our friends are going to wonder
