about

Originally sung by Herbert Howard.

lyrics

I went to Berlin on a Donkey, one of Hitler boys try to stop me.
I went to Berlin on a Donkey, one of Hitler boys try to stop me.
I gave him the 'Ashtung' as you wish, he say what you sellin' I say codfish.
He say, today is bakanal, Hitler indeed don't play in carnaval.

Boy, because of your business in 40 minutes,
'Ashtung sei ma' in 40 minutes. 'Achi bel bukn bukn, diminish'
for Hitler say to send back the codfish.

When they hear me talking German, the Nazi put a passport in me hand,
they say 'if you want to see Hitler, you come, but your donkey must stay'
Say lunch man I ask you a question, say question no me no me come from.
Well since you cannot understand, better I tell you in German.

Boy you son of a 'binich' in 40 minutes,
'Ashtung sei ma' in 40 minutes. 'Achi bel bukn bukn, diminish'
for Hitler say to send back the codfish.

At the later end it was murder, and I waiting so long to see Hitler.
A little German boy 'bout 9 years, he came with some gossip in me ears.
He said Hitler died long time ago, and all I could produce is his photo.
I hit him, I kick in his belly, he died and the Gestapo slap me.

Boy, because of your business in 40 minutes,
'Ashtung sei ma' in 40 minutes. 'Achi bel bukn bukn, diminish'
for Hitler say to send back the codfish.

Since we argue and none of us couldn't stop,
when suddenly a Gestapo came up.
He said 'gentlemen, what's the query?'
I said this man insulted me donkey.
And as I was going to Rimengate, he said that me donkey have to wait.
The Nazi had laughed me in his hat, want to steal me codfish from me gut.

Boy you son of a 'binich' in 40 minutes,
'Ashtung sei ma' in 40 minutes. 'Achi bel bukn bukn, diminish'
for Hitler say to send back the codfish.
