Song Lyrics

You have to understand the way I am, mein herr
A tiger is a tiger, not a lamb, mein herr
You'll never turn the vinegar to jam, mein herr
So I do what I do
When I'm through, then I'm through.
and I'm through.
Tootle-oo.
Bye bye mein lieber herr
farewell mein lieber herr
it was a fine affair, but now it's over
And though I used to care, I need the open air
you're better off without me mein herr.
don't dab your eye, mein herr
or wonder why, mein herr
I always said that I was a rover
You musn't knit your brow
you should have known by now
you've every cause to doubt me mein herr

The continent of Europe is so wide, mein herr.
Not only up and down, but side to side, mein herr.
I couldn't ever cross it if I tried, mein herr.
But I do what I can
inch by inch
step by step
mile by mile
man by man

Bye bye mein Herr.
Bye bye mein lieber Herr.
Auf wiedersehen, mein Herr.
Es war sehr gut, mein Herr, und vorbei.
Du kennst mich wohl, mein Herr.
Ach, lebe wohl, mein Herr.
Du sollst mich nie mehr sehen mein Herr.

bye bye mein lieber herr
farewell mein lieber herr
it was a fine affair but now it's over
and though I used to care
I need the open air
You're better off without me mein herr
Don't dab your eye mein herr
or wonder why mein herr
I've always said that I was a rover
You musn't knit your brow
you should have known by now
you've every cause to doubt me mein herr
bye bye mein lieber herr
farewell mein lieber herr
it was a fine affair but now it's over
and though i used to care
i need the open air
you're better off without me
you're better without me
you're better without me
bye bye
mein herr
mein herr
