And I've started out to kill,
That it will be a modern job,
You leave to Kaiser Bill.
My army went through Belgium,
Shooting women and children down,
We tore up all her country
And blew up all her towns
My Zepps dropped bombs on cities,
Killing both old and young,
And those the Zepplins didn't get
Were taken out and hung.

With aid of poisonous gas,
The Belgians (darn 'em) stopped me
And would not let me pass

They go sneaking thru the seas
And sink ship at sight.

We don't want to make you sore,
So be sure to tell your U-boats
To sink our ships no more.
We have told you for the last time,
So Bill it's up to you,
And if you do not stop it,
You have got to fight us too"

And he's coming after me
With q million Yankee soldiers
From their home across the sea.
Now that's why called you,
Satan; for / want advice from you;

just what l ought to do.
my dear old Kaiser William
There's not much for me to tell,
For the Yanks will make it hotter
Than | can for you in Hell.
I've been mean old devil,
But not half as mean as you,
And the minute that l get you here
l will give my job to you.
III be ready for your coming.
And Pll keep the fires bright,
And III have your room all ready
When the Yanks begin to fight.
For the Boys in Blue will get you,

Hang up the phone and get your hat,
And meet me here in He'll
