The Furor Of The land Poem by ed purchla

The Furor Of The land

The Führer of the Land
The Führer of the Land
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The Führer of the Land

The Führer lies again
The Führer lies again
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The Führer lies again.

He lies about a death
He lies about a death
Hi-ho, the derry-o
He lies about a death

The death of a man in Minn.
The death of a man in Minn.
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The brownshirts strike again

The Führer takes a nap
The Führer takes a nap
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The Führer takes a nap

He dreams of Nobel (PEACE) Prizes
He dreams of Nobel (PEACE) Prizes
Nobel (PEACE) Prizes he didn't steal
He dreams of Nobel (PEACE) Prizes

So whattya think you'll do?
Whattaya think you'll do?
When they come to kill people in your town,
Whattaya think you'll do?
