To Be Or Not To Be Lyrics - Singles - Mel Brooks

Heil! Siegety Heil! 

Heil! Siegety Heil! 

Heil! Siegety Heil! (Heil myself!) 

Heil! Siegety Heil! 

Well, hi there, people! You know me! 

I used to run a little joint called Germany 

I was number one, the people's choice 

And everybody listened to my mighty voice! 

My name is Adolf, I'm on the mike 

I'm gonna hip you to the story of the new Third Reich 

It all began down in Munich town 

And pretty soon, the word started gettin' around 

So I said to Martin Bormann, 

I said, "Hey Marty, why don't we throw a little Nazi party?" 

So we had an election, well, kinda sorta 

And before you knew it, hello! New order! 

To all those mothers in the Fatherland, I said, 

"Achtung, baby! I got me a plan!" 

They said, "What you got, Adolf? What you gonna do?" 

I said, "How about this one? World War Two!" 

To be or not to be 

Oh, baby, can't you see? 

We're gonna take it to the top 

You're making history and it feels so good to me 

Ooh, darling, please don't ever stop 

Don't be stupid, be a smarty 

Come on and join the Nazi party! (Party!) 

Like Humpty Dumpty off'a that wall, 

All the little countries they began to fall 

Holland, Belgium, Denmark, Poland 

The troops were rockin' and the tanks were rollin' 

We were swingin' along with a song in our hearts 

And "Deutschland über alles" was making the charts 

We had a new step called the goosestep we were marching to 

Well, it's sorta kinda like a German boogaloo 

I was gettin' what I wanted, but it wasn't enough 

So I called the boys, I said boys, get tough! 

Now I surrounded myself with some unusual cats 

There was skinny little Goebbles and Göring Mister Fats 

And let's not forget ol' Himmler and Hess 

Oh, you better believe we made a hell of a mess 

Say Heil! Heil! Siegety Heil! 

We gonna whip it on the people Teutonic style! 

To be or not to be 

Oh, baby, can't you see? 

We're gonna make it to the top 

You are our destiny, this thing was meant to be 

Why don't we do it 'til we drop? 

Say your boots ain't black and shirt ain't brown? 

Well, get back Jack! You can't get down! 

Do it, Adolf, do it! 

I drank wine from the Rhine with the finest ladies 

And we did it in the back of my black Mercedes 

I was on a roll; I couldn't lose! 

Then came D-Day, the birth of the blues 

The Yanks and the Brits started raising Caen 

Those guys were the pits, they drove me insane! 

People all around me started swallowing pills 

Let's face it, folks, we was going downhill 

Berlin was crumbling, we was under the gun 

Time to look out for number one 

So I grabbed a blonde and a case of beer 

Said, "The Russians are comin'! Let's get out of here!" 

To be or not to be 

Oh, honey, can't you see? 

We had to take it to the top 

You sure made history and it felt so good to me 

Oh, schätze, please don't ever stop 

Auf wiedersehn! Good to see ya! 

I got a one way ticket to Argentina! 

To be or not to be 

Oh, baby, can't you see? 

We've got to take it to the top 

You're making history and it feels so good to me 

Why don't we do it 'til we drop?
