Sorry about the wait, this is Newkirk's version. Don't get me wrong on this. I don't think of Newkirk as a coward, but it was either this version or two others, both of which I don't think fit him exactly or I can't see him doing. Thanks to all who welcomed me to the Hogan's Heroes fandom! :) I hope you guys enjoy this! My disclaimer is in the first chapter. :D
Newkirk's version: "Guv'nor?
Can I opt out o' this mission?
I think it'll fail.
Us gettin' forty SS chaps
To do some laps
While we get those 'o've bailed?
I never 'eard more crazy
Thoughts in me life.
You think we could prevail?
Can I opt out o' this mission?
I don't think we can do this mission. . . Aye, aye, sir.
"Must I really do this mission?
Or must I dress up as a Fräu?
I very nearly missed the roll call, sir,
Last time Fräu Newkirkmüller
Tried ent'rin' Göring's 'ouse!
(Blimey, I'm safe!)
I almost didn't make it
Back to 'ome at all
In time for Schultzie's 'Raus!'
"Guv'nor,
So, you're sure that I must?
I 'ave nine siblin's me pay feeds.
Call me cautious, but in this bloomin' war,
I've somethin' t' live for.
Should we proceed?
I'd never leave me mates, sir.
I'll do as you say.
I wish you'd change your mind!
Do I 'ave t' do this mission?"
