Everyone who has seen Mel Brooks' "The Producers" remembers "Springtime for Hitler." But no one I know remembers farther than the 1st two lines: It's springtime for Hitler and Germany; It's winter for Poland and France. Can anyone take it from there? (I don't remember it either.) ken perlow ..ihnp4!ihuxq!ken

Chorus: Germany was havingh trouble what a sad, sad story. Needed a new leader to restore its former glory. Where oh where was he? Where could that man be? We looked around, and then we found, the man for you and me And now its.. German: Springtime for Hitler and Germany. Deutschland is happy and gay. We're marching to a faster pace. Look out, here comes the master race. Springtime for Hitler and Germany. Winter for Poland and France. Springtime for Hitler and Germany. Come on Germans, go into your dance. They dance a typical Broadway chorus dance interupted by 1stman: I was born in Doosledorf and that is why the call me Rolf. They dance some more until we hear: Brooks: Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join the Nazi party. More dancing with a goose-stepping chorus line and the song continues. Unfortunatly, I don't remember how the rest of the song goes. Before I get any flames for posting this song as a salute to Nazi Germany, I should mention that my father, who went through WW II, and would not allow Hogan's Heros to be watched in our house as "the Germans were not cute little people who were easily taken advantage of" thinks THE PRODUCERS is one of the funniest movies he has EVER seen, and always laughs at this song. After all, until he married Anne Bancroft, Mel Brooks was Jewish. OZ seismo!rlgvax!oz P.S. How did I do, Laureen? If you have THIS movie, bring it with you to the conference!!!!!

The words to "Springtime for Hitler" were right as far as they went. The complete lyrics: Germany was having trouble, what a sad sad story Needed a new leader to restore its former glory Where oh where was he Where could that man be We looked around, and then we found, A man for you and me, and now it's Springtime for Hitler and Germany Deutschland is happy and gay We're marching to a faster pace Look out, here comes the master race Springtime for Hitler and Germany Winter for Poland and France Springtime for Hitler and Germany Come on Germans, go into your dance (spoken - I was borm in Dusseldorf, and that is why they call me Rolf) (spoken - Don't be stupid, be a smarty. Come and join the Nazi Party) Springtime for Hitler and Germany (rifle shots) Goosestep's the new step today (machine gun fire) Bombs falling from the skies again (bomb falling) Deutschland is on the rise again Springtime for Hitler and Germany U-boats are sailing once more Springtime for Hitler and Germany Means that Soon we'll be going We've got to be going You know we'll be going your way The song can be found on both the soundtrack album "The Producers" and on the album from "High Anxiety".
