A Well-Respected Man

September 41
The German Army had then won
The battle of Kiev, Ukraine
Look behind the front

‘Yeah, without a hitch‘
A batch of Jews shot in a ditch
The leader of the killing party
Knew the ropes –

Now he’s a well-respected man
He loves his wife and is working hard
He is proud father of three children

A little later on
The wicked guy just carried on
Erasing traces was the task
Of Mr. Clean

He dug up the graves
That is he ordered labour slaves

To do all the dirty work
And had ’em shot –

Now he’s a well-respected man ...

Yes the local choir
Sings a song of God’s great wrath
He’s a long-time member singing
Loud and clear

He’s an engineer
There was no harm to his career
After all, he says, we all do make mistakes –

Yes, he’s a well-respected man
