The Eternal Jew
The Eternal Jew
As our dear Lord once
tried to warn
The Jew was a murderer from the day he was born
And though Lord Jesus had to die
God the Father could find no race to comply
With his death by torture, cruelly directed
So that's why the Jews were finally selected
And unto this day the Jews and their sons
Still refer to themselves as the "Chosen Ones."
Our God selected Abraham's kin
To execute the ultimate sin
The weight of the cross, our good Lord bore
But sought a moment of rest, for his shoulders were sore
At every door he was met with the same verses:
A Jew emerged with odious curses
And with his legs he kicked, and with his fists he beat
And drove the Lord back into the street
Imagine the Lord of earth and heaven
Mistreated by the evil Jew, Levin
For this very reason the Jew is accursed
And throughout the world his race was dispersed
For two thousand years he has wandered in vain
Seeking the rest he will never obtain
The evil Jew Levin sought peace of mind
And all of Judah followed in kind
Throughout the world he would restlessly wander
From one country to another
In his own Promised Land
He is a stranger, an unwelcome man
So to other countries and among other creeds
He carried out his dirty deeds
After hundreds of years he still is here
The face of Levin draws ever near
Whether in Hamburg or Berlin
In Denmark or Danzig, the Jew sneaks in
And also in London and in Paris
He changes his name to "Brown" or "Harris"
Believe it my children, without any doubt
You can still see him today, lurking about
Within every country which allows the Yid in
You can still find Levin, cleverly hidden
Therefore, dear children, please beware
Don't get caught in the old Jew's lair
The Jew is as sneaky as a sly old fox
Avoid him as you would the pox!
