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
Mile by mile
step by step
inch by inch
man by manmein 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're better off without me
