(Verse)
When Frederick the Great was at Potsdam
The French introduced the gavotte
But Fred warned his henchmen
'Twas all right for Frenchmen
But Germans? Oh, certainly not!
"With waltzes we've built up the empire
For waltzes," said Freddy, "I fight!"
So poet and peasant
From then to the present
Have waltzed from the morning till night
When a Musiker doesn't bring Strauss mit ihm
He is no Musiker. 'Raus mit 'im!
(Chorus 1)
We laugh and we sing oom-pah-pah
And we dance in three-quarter time
When having our fling oom-pah-pah
We romance in three-quarter time
It makes us sentimental
It makes the night sublime
Our dogs, they have rabies
Our women have babies
In three-quarter time
So, me for three-four time
When Frederick the Great was at Potsdam
The French introduced the gavotte
But Fred warned his henchmen
'Twas all right for Frenchmen
But Germans? Oh, certainly not!
"With waltzes we've built up the empire
For waltzes," said Freddy, "I fight!"
So poet and peasant
From then to the present
Have waltzed from the morning till night
When a Musiker doesn't bring Strauss mit ihm
He is no Musiker. 'Raus mit 'im!
(Chorus 1)
We laugh and we sing oom-pah-pah
And we dance in three-quarter time
When having our fling oom-pah-pah
We romance in three-quarter time
It makes us sentimental
It makes the night sublime
Our dogs, they have rabies
Our women have babies
In three-quarter time
So, me for three-four time
