Der Alte Klempner

Der alte Klempner war Faschist,
obwohl er doch nur Klempner ist.
Wir mu?en uns nicht abgew?n,
da?festtags die Paraden dr?n
und da?die hohen Stiefelspitzen
im Takt gezogner S?l blitzen.
Das sind die guten Traditionen,
die uns Deutschen innewohnen.
Stramm geradeaus und glattgek?t,
im frisch gest?ten Einheitshemd.
Der alte Klempner war Faschist.
Wer wird sich denn das Maul verbrennen,
statt ungefragt nach Haus zu rennen,
um zwischen Pl?nd Plunderkissen
zu wissen, was wir alle wissen:
Geduckt, geheuchelt, streng Partei
und nachher war man nicht dabei.
Der alte Klempner war Faschist,
obwohl er doch nur Klempner ist.
