On 1 September 1939 the Germans decided it was time
To conquer the Poles who were their neighbours and so created wartime
So they attacked the Poles and dressed dead concentration inmates
In Polish uniforms and said that they had attacked the German State
Hitler lied to his people and they were sucked into this war crime
He talked of returning fire when it was the Germans firing first all the time
So Poland was the first country that the Nazis would over-run
And it was the Second World War that they begun
The British and French declared war on Germany
But did little to help the Poles in their misery
The Russians choose to invade from the East
And for six long years there would be no peace.
