First, I just wanted to thank everyone who reviewed A Hochstetter Christmas Eve; I'm glad you got a good laugh out of it! In honor of the reviews, here is another (mangled) carol for your amusement. Have fun!

Disclaimer: I own a house, a car, and a cat. My wife owns me. I, in turn, don't own Hogan's Heroes!


Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
Suddenly a train blows up in major spades
Falls back to Earth as tiny razor blades
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work.

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, All is bright
Munitions factory is on fire right now
Fireworks show draws an admiring crowd
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
Insurance rates are quite the shock
When the town center is blown up by a rocket
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
Troops passing through demand hazard pay
Not even free booze will make them stay
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
Excuses fly fast and furious all around
When Biedenbender turned traitor and left town
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
Carter's explosives are just the good ticket
For telling the Nazis just where to stick it
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
Klink is an idiot who thinks he's the best
Hochstetter tears out what hair he has left
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive night
All is not calm, all is bright
The Major always used to get his man
Now he can't find the damn sabotage band
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is not calm, all is bright
His ring of steel was of trademarked fame
Now it has more holes than Hitler's brain
Hogan's men are at work
Hogan's men are at work

Hammelburg Night, Explosive Night
All is calm, all is bright
The darkness is quiet, the blasts have stopped
Someone forgot to reorder for the airdrops
Hogan's men are at peace
Hogan's men are at peace

(…but not for long.)
