Sparks - Girl From Germany lyrics

How I wished my folks were gracious hosts and not dismayed But wit and wisdom take a backseat girl when you're that afraid Oh no, bring her home and the folks look ill My word, they can't forget, they never will They can hear the storm troops on our lawn when I show her in And the Frau is alive and well in our panelled den Oh no, bring her home and the folks look ill My word, they can't forget that war, what a war My word, she's from Germany Well, it's the same old country but the people have changed My word... Germany With its splendid castles and its fine cuisine Well, the car I drive is parked outside, it's German-made They resent that less than the people who are German-made Oh no, bring her home and the folks look ill My word, they can't forget that war, what a war, some war My word... Germany Well, it's the same old country but the people have changed My word... Germany With its splendid castles and its fine cuisine, its lovely German women And its wonderful rivers that do flow from her hills My word, she's from Germany Well, it's the same old country but the people have changed My word, she's from Germany With its splendid castles and its fine cuisine My word, she's from Germany Well, it's the same old country but the people have changed My word, she's from Germany With its splendid castles and its fine cuisine My word, she's from Germany Well, it's the same old country but the people have changed My word, she's from Germany With its splendid castles, its fine cuisine, Its lovely German women and you and me!
