2003 Broadway revival Nine the Musical - The Germans at the Spa Lyrics
MAMA MADDELENA Clear the decks, be alert.
CHAMBERMAIDS We'll clear the decks, we'll be alert.
MAMA MADDELENA Fix your tie, fix your shirt.
CHAMBERMAIDS We'll fix our tie and shirt.
MAMA MADDELENA Be prepared to change a foreign coin.
CHAMBERMAIDS Deutschmarks, Francs, Kroner, Pfennigs, Shillings.
MAMA MADDELENA You all know what to do.
CHAMBERMAIDS We all know what to do.
MAMA MADDELENA They're on their Way, you know who.
CHAMBERMAIDS They're on their Way, we know who
MAMA MADDELENA Eins, zwei, drei, vier, funf, sechs, Sieben, acht, neun.
CHAMBERMAIDS Eins, zwei, drei, vier, funf, sechs, Sieben, acht, neun.
The Germans at the spa, the Germans at the spa, They'll soon be arriving here to spend A lost weekend in Shangri-La. The Germans at the spa descend from german mounts. They've come to take the waters with The daughters of Italian counts.
How we love to have the Germans at the spa. Carefully avoiding and slight faux pas. For the Germans at the spa, For the Germans At the spa, For the Germans alles must be perfect.
The Germans are coming, The Germans are coming, Roll out the wienerscnitz, roll out the wienerscnitz. They'll soon be arriving, the spa will be thriving. They'll come, they'll sit, they'll schvitz. They'll come, they'll sit, they'll schvitz.
Be sure there's lots of German music playing.
Und was du tust in meinem brust, O mein geliebter, o meine herz, alle Geliebter, und so weiter.
MAMA MADDELENA Go mow the lawns.
CHAMBERMAIDS I'll mow the lawns.
MAMA MADDELENA Go cool the beer.
CHAMBERMAIDS I'll cool the beer.
MAMA MADDELENA Go shell the prawns.
CHAMBERMAIDS I'll shell the prawns.
MAMA MADDELENA I think they're here.
CHAMBERMAIDS They're here.
GERMANS Ve're here, ve're here, The Germans at the spa, the Germans at the spa. We just got in a minute ago, 'cause Germany is filled with snow. Together now hurrah for the Germans at the spa.
MAMA MADDELENA Of anything the could have chosen, Why do they wear lederhosen?
GERMANS How ve love to spielen at our favorite spa, Carefully avoiding all the French Bourgeois, For the Germans at the spa, for the Germans at the spa, For the Germans alles must be German.
The Germans are laughing, ve're all photographing, Ve click the hasselblad, ve click the hasselblad, Und jetzt ve're unpacking. If nothing is Lacking, Ve take a promenade, ve take a promenade.
And vot's that lovely music I hear playing? Und was do tust in meinem brust, O mein geliebter, o meine herz, alle Geliebter, und so weiter
GERMAN 1 Just vunce a year I can romance Beneath the dance of an Italian Apricot moon,
GERMAN 2 Und vunce a year I can be more than Just another tycoon. Too soon this all shall pass.
ITALIANS The Germans at the spa Are eating halevah And closing a deal for oil with A noted Middle Easter shah.
GERMANS Ve excercise by day, At night romantic play, I'm dancing with Isolde. When I hold 'er evrything's o.k.
ITALIANS How we love to see the Germans at the spa.
GERMANS How ve love to be the Germans at the spa.
ALL For the Germans at the spa, for the Germans at the spa, For the Germans Italy is heaven.
GERMANS (The Germans are coming etc.) Just vunce a year We have the chance to find romance Beneath the dance Of an Italian apricot moon. Und vunce a year ve can be absolutely free As if ve're floating like a helium balloon.
ITALIANS Be sure there's lots of German music playing, How we love to have the Germans at the Spa!
