| MAMINSYNEK W KONCENTRAKU | MAMA'S BOY IN A CONCENTRATION CAMP |
| | |
| Miała matka trzech synów, | There was a mother, had three sons, |
| Volksdeutsche gnili w domu— | Two Volksdeutsche boys they loafed at home— |
| A trzeci z braku laku | But the third, with nothing better to do, |
| Zdychał w koncentraku. | Wasted away in a concentration camp. |
| | |
| Przybyli doń, przybyli, | They showed up one day, just showed up, |
| Anieli z ge-gestapo | Angels from the Ge-Gestapo |
| I wnet go pozdrowili | And greeted him without ado |
| W lewy ząbek łapą! | With a paw to his left front tooth! |
| | |
| Jechali z nim, jechali, | They rode with him, rode along, |
| Z trupkami—byle dalej... | A bunch of stiffs there with him, |
| A on ich w pulmaniku | While he flattered them sweetly, sweetly |
| Ślicznie, ślicznie chwalił. | In a Pullman wagon. |
| (verflucht!) | (damn!) |
| | |
| Umyli go, umyli— | They washed him down, washed him down— |
| Na zimno, na czerwono | With cold, then red-hot water |
| I miał on gołą swoją | And the boy’s close-shaved head, |
| Wielce tym zdziwioną... | Was greatly struck with wonder... |
| | |
| I czuł się szczęśliw, syty, | And he felt blissful, satisfied, |
| Po mordzie, w nerki bity— | Face and kidneys tenderized— |
| Jedyny Häftling w świecie | The only prisoner in the world |
| W kulturnym kacecie! | In a cultured concentration camp. |
| | |
| I wrócił do matuli | And he came back to mama dear, |
| Cichutko i potulnie... | So quietly and meekly... |
| Reichspostem jako—popiół | By Reich post—a pile of ashes— |
| W posrebrzanej urnie. | In a silver-plated funeral urn. |
| (jeszcze nie koniec!) | (not over yet!) |
| | |
| I wisi u Marysi, | And now he hangs from Mary’s ceiling, |
| Nad łóżkiem u Maniuli— | Just above sweet Mary’s bed— |
| I liczy, ile Mania | And tallies up how many chumps |
| Frajerów mu tuli... | She cuddles up to in his stead |
