《Don’t Let’s Be Beastly to The Germans》歌词

[00:00:00] Don't Let's Be Beastly To The Germans - Noel Coward and Orchestra

[00:00:09] Don't let's be beastly to the Germans

[00:00:13] When our victory is ultimately won

[00:00:16] It was just those nasty Nazis

[00:00:19] Who persuaded them to fight

[00:00:20] And their Beethoven and Bach

[00:00:22] Are really far worse than their bite

[00:00:24] Let's be meek to them

[00:00:26] And turn the other cheek to them

[00:00:28] And try to bring out their latent sense of fun

[00:00:31] Let's give them full air parity

[00:00:34] And treat the rats to charity

[00:00:35] But don't let's be beastly to the Hun

[00:00:40] We must be kind

[00:00:41] And with an open mind

[00:00:43] We must endevour to find a way

[00:00:47] To let the german know that when the war is over

[00:00:50] They are not the ones who'll have to pay

[00:00:55] We must be sweet

[00:00:57] And tactful and discreet

[00:00:59] And when they've suffered defeat

[00:01:00] We mustn't let them feel upset

[00:01:01] Or ever get the feeling

[00:01:04] That we're cross with them or hate them

[00:01:06] Our future policy must be to reinstate them

[00:01:10] Don't let's be beastly to the Germans

[00:01:13] When we've definitely got them on the run

[00:01:17] Let us treat them very kindly

[00:01:19] As we would a valued friend

[00:01:21] We might send them some bishops

[00:01:23] As a form of lease and lend

[00:01:25] Let's be sweet to them

[00:01:27] And day by day repeat to them

[00:01:29] That sterilisation simply isn't done

[00:01:32] Let's help the dirty swine again

[00:01:34] To occupy the Rhine again

[00:01:36] But don't let's be beastly to the Hun

[00:01:40] We must be just

[00:01:42] And win their love and trust

[00:01:44] And in addition we must be wise

[00:01:47] And ask the conquered lands

[00:01:49] To join our hands to aid them

[00:01:51] That would be a wonderful surprise

[00:01:56] For many years

[00:01:57] They've been in floods of tears

[00:01:59] Because the poor little dears

[00:02:01] Have been so wronged

[00:02:02] And only longed

[00:02:03] To cheat the world

[00:02:04] Deplete the world

[00:02:04] And beat the world to blazes

[00:02:06] This is the moment when we ought to sing their praises

[00:02:09] Don't let's be beastly to the Germans

[00:02:14] For you can't deprive a gangster of his gun

[00:02:18] Though they've been a little naughty

[00:02:19] To the Czechs and poles and dutch

[00:02:22] I don't suppose those countries

[00:02:23] Really minded very much

[00:02:25] Let's be free with them

[00:02:28] And share the BBC with them

[00:02:29] We mustn't prevent them basking in the sun

[00:02:33] Let's soften their defeat again

[00:02:35] And build their blasted fleet again

[00:02:37] But don't let's be beastly to the Hun

[00:02:40] Don't let's be beastly to the Germans

[00:02:44] When the age of peace and plenty has begun

[00:02:48] We must send them steel and oil and coal

[00:02:50] And everything they need

[00:02:52] For their peaceable intentions

[00:02:53] Can be always guaranteed

[00:02:56] Let's employ with them

[00:02:58] A sort of stength through joy with them

[00:03:00] They're better than us at honest manly fun

[00:03:03] Let's let them feel they're swell again

[00:03:06] And bomb us all to hell again

[00:03:08] But don't let's be beastly to the Hun
