Sure. Yuh. Jews are going around lynching people for walking all over them. That’s why nobody ever dares.
Yuh. Sure. Christian conservatives were worshipping Hitler and committing mass murder for their savior. They embraced National Socialism as part and parcel of Christianity. Songs like these convinced them.
We’re throwing out the Christian line
For Christ was just a Jewish swine
As for the mother, what a shame.
Cohn was the lady’s real name.
(as translated by Louis Nizer in What to Do with Germany)
Or
Sharpen the knives on the sidewalk
To stab the priests with.
We are ready for mass murder
Konrad Heiden’s translation of a song transcribed in the original German in his Der Fuhrer, towards the end of the book (don’t have either book with me, so both the above are from memory).
OK, you asked for it (but remember, you started it)
Well, a redneck nerd in a bowling shirt
was a-guzzlin Lone Star beer
Talking religion and-uh politics
for all the world to hear.
“They oughta send you back to Russia, boy,
or New York City one
You just want to doodle a Christian girl
and you killed God’s only son.”
I said, has it occurred to you, you nerd,
that that’s not very nice,
We Jews believe it was Santa Claus,
that killed Jesus Christ.
You know, you don’t look Jewish, he said,
near as I could figger
I had you lamped for a slightly anemic,
well-dressed country n-word.
No, they ain’t makin Jews, like Jesus anymore,
They don’t turn the other cheek,
the way they done before.
He started in to shoutin’
and a-spittin’ on the floor,
Lord, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore.
He says, I ain’t a racist, but Aristitle Onassis
is one Greek we don’t need
And them n-words, Jews and Sigma Nus,
all they ever do is breed.
And wops ‘n micks ‘n slopes ‘n spics
‘n spooks are on my list
And there’s one little hebe from the heart of Texas
is there anyone I missed ?
Well, I hits him with everything I had
right square between the eyes.
I says, I’m gonna gitcha, you son of a bitch ya, for spoutin’ that pack of lies.
If there’s one thing I can’t abide,
it’s an ethnocentric racist;
Now you take back that thing you said ‘bout Aristitle Onassis.
No, they ain’t makin’ Jews, like Jesus anymore,
They don’t turn the other cheek the way they done before.
You could hear that redneck holler
as he hit that hardwood floor
Lord, they sho’ ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore!
Everybody!:
They ain’t makin’ Jews, like Jesus anymore,
They don’t turn the other cheek the way they done before.
Well, the whole damn place was singin’
as I strolled right out the door
Lord, they ain’t makin Jews, like Jesus anymore.
They ain’t makin’ Jews, like Jesus anymore,
They don’t turn the other cheek the way they done before.
Well, the whole damn place was singin’
as I strolled right out the door
Lord.....
.....they ain’t makin Jews, like Jesus anymore.
