No matter time nor place,
These people always seem to lose.
Draw a swastika at a graveyard
Why? Because they're Jews!

I wonder if they know, though;
Or if they could even bear,
To do the wickedness they advocate for,
Destruction beyond Compare;

To perpetrate that murder,
And burn those buildings down,
Rachel Esther Ruth and Rose,
Plus all the men in town;

And do to them what was done,
That unspeakable horrible thing;
To uproot a stateless people,
Who had Not an army nor a king;

Stare them in the eye and watch,
Perpetrate the massacres, the Holocaust,
Because they will never ever know
How i weep for the world we lost.
