If you'd searched Alta Vista for "bridge on the river kwai" and "march,"
Bun, you'd have found the answer at the very first site it gave you.
Many who don't recall the tune may be helped by the first line of some
lyrics written long after the march itself: "Hitler has only got one
ball." I believe we had a thread on this a while back.

Followed by:
Himmler, he had two, but very small.
Goebbels, poor old Goebbels, Goebbels, he had no balls at all.
Was that, aside from the questionable spelling, it?

Hallo, Bun! Long time no hear. The title you seek is "Major Bogie"
because the PoWs had jungle fever and runny noses. Always delighted
to help our beloved leader.

Not even close.
There is no official version, of course, but this one approaches
consensus:
Hitler has only got one ball.
Goering has two, but they are small.
Himmler [pause] is very simmler,
And poor old Go-balls has no balls at all.
Spelling phonetic, of course. The Himmler-simmler rhyme is essential.
Goebbels had several children, in fact, all of whom he killed when he
and his wife committed suicide in Hitler's Berlin bunker.

Not quite:
Hitler has only got one ball
Goering has two but they are very small
Himmler has something sim'lar
But poor old Goebbels
Has no balls
At all!
The name "Goebels" is not, I need hardly say, given its echt Deutsch
pronunciation in the song.
I believe someone has done some solemn research that proves the Fuehrer
was indeed monorchid, but it's hard to believe that Goebbels, father of
numerous children both in and out of wedlock, was testicularly
challenged.
Not that having one ball is necessarily a bar to parenthood, as my dear
old uncle Jacko amply demonstrated. Wit, raconteur, lecher and drunkard,
he sired 7 children despite the fact that he was only firing on one
cylinder.

Himmler.. was somewhat sim'lar
And Goebbels.. had no balls.. at all!

That's not it either. The second line needs a "very" to make it fit
the rhythm of the tune and even then it must be sung "ver - ry";
pronouncing his name as Go-balls in the fourth line makes no sense
whatever.

Yes, that's the way I've heard it sung in Dublin pubs, except perhaps
for the "they are" in line two which can be eliminated if "very" is
stretched out, which I like because it emphasizes the "small" part.

Returning to the original question regarding the name or title of the

I don't know but they probably have no balls either.

This might be another of those pondian things. I also have heard it
sung many times, so the right pond consensus may well differ from your
left pond one.

Thank you. I am, indeed, a pretty good musician: I sing and also play
the violin. More seriously, I am just an engineer and never have
claimed to be especially good at grammar; Neil Coffey's posts
generally leave me dizzy. Being a good listener and having lived in a
number of different English speaking places, I am pretty good at
shades of word meanings. FWIW, *my* version goes something like this:
Hitler has only got one ball.
Goering has two but they are very small.
Himmler [pause] is very simmler,
But Goebbels, poor old Goebbels, Goebbels has no balls at all.
Now, try singing this, if you can, and you will find that the "very"
in the second line is absolutely essential unless you sing it they,
chop, are, chop, which isn't nice to the ear. The tune won't fit the
verse without it in other words. Our (Irish) final line is also more
singable than yours, which must be sung in jerks and spurts to make it
fit the tune. Ireland is a more lyric nation than American so maybe
that explains the differences.

Quite right. It's Joe-balls. Illogical, I know, but that's the way
we used to sing it.

[snip]
The problem here is the *rhythm*, which is not conveyed adequately
merely by reporting the words. The break (or pause or rest) after the
first two notes in each line is quite distinctive, in the tune. So
Robert's version works for me:
Hitler (rest, rest) has only got one ball (rest)
Goering (rest, rest) has two but very small (rest)
Himmler (rest, rest) is very sim'lar (rest, rest)
And poor old Goebbels (rest) has no balls (rest) at all.
I have trouble making Charles' fit:
Hitler (rest, rest) has only got one ball (rest)
Goering *has* *two* but they are very small (rest)
Himmler (rest, rest) is very sim'lar (rest rest)
-- and then it breaks down as I can find no way to cram all the
remaining syllables into one line.
The tune for the fourth line the *first* time through the march is
different from the tune the *last* time through the march. Maybe that
has something to do with it. Maybe Charles is using that bridge phrase,
da dee DAH dee da-da-da-da, for the last six words?

There is a MIDI file of the march (Colonel Bogey) at
http://midistudio.com/midi/MW_AGES.htm
Rests aside, there are exactly eight notes in the phrase that
corresponds to the second line of the verse. You can diddle that line
and fit in both "they are" and "very," but it requires adding notes that
aren't in the original.
I realize that as with any folk music, there is no "official" version of
the lyric, but there is a tune that was copyrighted at one point, and
that tune fits some lyrics better than others. And vice versa.

I agree about the /very/, but I can only assume you use a different tune
because your last line has six superfluous syllables for mine. Which goes
"But Goebbels, chop, has no balls, chop, at all."
But we can't be talking about a different tune, because it's in the film!

I know it as:
Goering (rest, rest) he has his two but small
which adds up to eight OK.

Right!
So she obeyed the good doctor's advice:
She screwed with the man who delivered the ice,
And a bouncing big baby was born in the fall,
But the poor little bastard had no balls at all.
What? No balls at all?
No! No balls at all!
She married a man who had no balls at all.
Incidentally, the line about Hitler was widely believed to be true;
but I recently read that not only is it false, but, astonishingly, it
is _known to be_ false. It seems that Hitler's boyhood family doctor
was Jewish, and when Hitler came to power he saw to it that the doctor
had safe passage to America, where he settled in New York City.
During the war, a reporter took the trouble to interview him about
this myth, and was assured that Hitler's genitals were normal.
I suspect that this thread would become even more bizarre if it were
transferred to rec.music.folk.

Ah, but you inserted my "very" into the second line of Robert's
version and that made it work, as I originally said. :-)
Shouldn't there be two rests after Goebbels?

It may require a bit of slurring but I've heard it done and have sung
along. You'll admit, no rests are required!

Why? Eight words for eight notes; sounds right to me. The "very" must
be there for both musical and for insult reasons.

Yeah, I figured it was hopeless. I now classify talking about fitting
words to tunes, in this silent medium, as inherently unsatisfying as
talking about vowel sounds. I'll save my musical discussions for real

Am I alone in remembering one from my all-girl Catholic school daze that

The version that my older brother taught me, which he learned in his
coed public elementary school daze (but which was no longer current
by the time I attended the same school and reached the likely age at
which he learned the song, i.e. about six years later) goes:
Comet, it makes your teeth turn green
Comet, it tastes like gasoline
Comet, it makes you vomit
So drink some Comet, and vomit, today.
The reference is to the Comet cleaning product. (They didn't ever use
the tune in their commercials, did they?)
When I was in sixth grade, the march tune was used in our graduation.
A number of the kids from classes other than mine (my school segregated
the "intellectually gifted" from the non-gifted) sang a version which
began:
Rejects, they cost a dollar ninety-nine ...
But that's all I remember.

That was common in Chicago in the early '70s. There may have been a
causal link between it and Wacky Packs[1] trading cards, but I'm not
sure which way the vector pointed. "Teeth" in the first line doesn't
sound right, though. I think we used "lips" (or perhaps "hair", which
makes no sense, but it's a kid's song).
[1] For those who weren't there, take a look at

or, more generally,
http://www.snap.com/directory/category/0,16,-34815,00.html
Looking at the first of the sites, I see that the "Comet" parody
didn't actually have to do with the song. Oh, well. Since I've
already gone to the trouble of typing this in, I think I'll leave
it.

The song had reached Oakland, California, by at least 1979. (My first
son went to school there that year.) The "teeth" reference was an
interesting one; we'd just arrived from a country where Comet was a
brand of toothpaste. It took me a while to realise that the kids
were singing about a drain cleaner.

"Goering has two but they're too small"
or
"Goering has two but far too small"
both scan perfectly. Neither of the above options scans at all.
As for the last line, it leads me to believe you must be thinking about
some other tune.

Not unless you sing "Goering" on a single note, and "very" on a single
note, which would sound pretty awful, and wrong.
Without the "very," there are eight syllables for eight notes. There's
no place for any "very."

One of two things is going on here: (1) Charles sings "Goering has two
but very small," omitting the "they are" that others sing to the two
notes to which Charles sings "very." (2) Charles is jamming two extra
syllables into that line, which one can do if one isn't too concerned

One of the two alright and I'm not sure which since I am able to sing
it properly only after having consumed a few Guinnesses. I think I may
hurry up the "they are", hardly singing the words at all, so that I
may stretch out the "very" using, as you say, two notes for it. This
heightens my insult to the man so I find it pleasing.

Maybe Asshole can't count. <Rhyl> contains 4 characters, <Rhyll> contains
5 characters, and the overplus is an <l>, an extra letter. Mr Plusnet was
not indicating a "different letter."
Maybe someone should explain to Asshole that Doppler doesn't have an umlaut,

UK Parliament and bills of that body before they are enacted.

Note: Above, Sneaky PeteY changed his typo "extral" to "extra":

Short-time memory shot, senile PeteY? Reminder of his delusion,
repeated here so that he can't weasel out:
PeteY (15 Mar 2015):

I replied:
"pounce on my every typo" is *delusional* and paranoid. "Editor" PeteY
makes almost as many typos as super-slob & village idiot Steve Hayes --
another "editor" -- but to the best of my recollection, no AUEer has
ever OY!ed PeteY's frequent typos. The few AUEers who still read
PeteY's typo-riddled crap are too busy exposing his many other errors
and idiocies.
Thus I POUNCED on his typo "extral," but he didn't get it, and then
changed it to "extra." Swine!

Maybe I'll revise my epithet to "sociopathological liar."
