Klink:

I am a german colonel
and fairly proud of it
my record is quite personal
but I have to admit
that it´s the only thing
between me and the freezing
at the russian front

I am a german tiger
the greatest soldier here
and a good camp commander
a person so sincere

and I can play the violin
the way, that no one can
every time when I begin
I am a different man

my camp is quiet, no escapes
and since colonel Hogan came
there haven´t been any misshapes
al prisoners are tame

but sometimes I do wonder
´cause Hogan seems so brave
for him there is no "under"
why does he stay our slave?

when we´d have met in better days
he might had been my friend
I like the way he outplays
me, I want the war to end

and that Gestapo man
who´s always on my heels
he and his Gestapo clan
they have such mad ideals

I am completely loyal but
they must understand
that I don´t admit betrayal
when Hogan is my friend
