Nightmare Lyrics by Walter Quintus

Der Führer: Rock Opera

1977

[HITLER]
Not it's the time, now it's the season
Now I'm sure you've come for me!
Before I die tell me the reason
Why you've been playing tricks on me
You should remember that you promised
To make a mighty man of me
My thousand years are not yet over
Give me the final victory!
[GOEBBELS TO HITLER]
Everything's all right, can't you see my Führer?
Can't you see?
Endsieg's coming near, can't you see my Führer?
Can't you see?
[HITLER]
Now you're taking my soul with laughter
Forgetting what we once arranged
Yes, you're taking my soul with laughter
Tell my why our treaty has changed
[VOICES]
Why did you murder us?
Why did you murder?
Can't you see the smoke rising from the chimney?
Why did you murder us?
Why did you murder?
Can't you see the smoke, builder of the chimney?
[GOEBBELS]
Show me my Führer whom you talk to!
Your Manners take my by surprise
Behave as bravely as you used to
I never saw you so unwise
[HITLER]
Dead bodies standing up against me
Keep them away, I'm so afraid!
Give me your shelter, never leave me!
You gave the orders; I obeyed!
[VOICES]
Can't you see
The smoke rising from the chimney?
Can't you see
The smoke rising from the chimney?
Can't you see?
Can't you see
The smoke, builder of the chimney?
Can't you see?
[HITLER]
Now you're taking my soul with laughter
Forgetting what we once arranged
Yes, you're taking my soul with laughter
Tell my why our treaty has changed
[WARNING MAN]
Your noble aims were just pretended
Destruction is what you enjoy
YOur aims are reached your game has ended
People have always been your toy
[GOEBBELS]
Show me my Führer whom you talk to!
Your Manners take my by surprise
Behave as bravely as you used to
I never saw you so unwise
Everything's all right, can't you see my Führer?
Can't you see?
Endsieg's coming near, can't you see my Führer?
Can't you see?
[HITLER]
Now you're taking my soul with laughter
Forgetting what we once arranged
Yes, you're taking my soul with laughter
Tell my why our treaty has changed
