Belsen was a gas I heard the other day 
D              C               D         A 
In the open graves where the jews all lay 
D        C          D              Eb 
Life is fun and I wish you were here 
D                  C           D         A 
They wrote on postcards to those held dear

Oh dear oh dear oh dear 
 
Oh dear... 
 
Sergeant majors on the march 
Wash their bodies in the starch 
See them all die one by one 
Guess it's dead guess it's glad 
 
So bad so bad so bad 
 
So bad...

Dentists search their teeth for gold 
Frisk the jews for bank notes rolled 
when they found out what they got 
Line them up and shoot the lot 
 
Kill a man be a man kill a man 
 
Kill a man...

Wonder what the jews would say 
If I told them where Boorman was today 
Would they start a vendetta 
you'd better ask Ernie Ledbetter 
 
Ledbetter Ledbetter Ledbetter 
Ledbetter...
