No. 16 - Trio - Mitzi, Max, and Otto
| Mitzi: | When you go over to London, As lots of Germans do, |
| Otto: | It's easy to know the way you must go, Your German will pull you through! |
| Max: | For if you want them to tell you The way to Leicester Square, |
| Mitzi: | You take off your hat, remarking like that: "Sprechen Sie Deutsch, mein Herr?" |
| Otto (spoken): | Sagen sie mir — |
| Max (spoken): | 'E don't live 'ere no more. E's got six months. |
| Mitzi (spoken): | Aber bitte — bitte — |
| Max (spoken): | Well, I don't mind if I do. Two of bitter, you said, Miss? |
| All: | Sprechen Sie Deutsch, mein Herr? Passes you anywhere. London people say, "Right, old pal! Veev l'ongtonkety cordiale!" If you've taken a hansom, And the man wants double fare, Don't make a row-- say with a bow, "Sprechen Sie Deutsch, mein Herr?" |
| Mitzi: | Perhaps you travel to Margate, And in the afternoons, |
| Otto: | You walk on the sands, and listen to bands Performing the English tunes! |
| Max: | And when the bandsmen have played you Some patriotic air, |
| Mitzi: | You hear from the chap who takes round his cap, "Sprechen Sie Deutsch, mein Herr?" |
| Mitzi (spoken): | Das ist a pretty song tune. Vat calls himself it in English? |
| Max & Otto (spoken): | |
| Ve know him not — Ve blay him only! |
|
| All: | "Sprechen Sie Deutsch, mein Herr?" Germany's ev'rywhere, You will find on the English pier German waiters and German beer! Buy a present from Margate, Say a mug of chinaware, When you unpack, you see on the back, "Sprechen Sie Deutsch, mein Herr?" |
