(sung to the tune of "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" )

"My country's tired of me,
Sent me to Germany,
My name is Fritz.
Now I eat sauerkraut,
It makes my ears stick out
From ev'ry mountain shout,
Let sauerkraut sprout!"

Seems appropos.....! Our country certainly is tired of them, and (Nazi) Germany would make a good home for them.
