Home Thoughts From Abroad - Kristallnacht 1938
Oh, to be in Deutschland
Now that Adolf’s there.
For whoever wakes in Deutschland
Finds some morning, unaware,
There’s a knocking on the apartment door.
The Gestapo says you’re outside the law :
There’s a blinding flash as they break your
jaw.
In Deutschland -- now.
