Fraulein Lyrics

The little repeating riff in this song is from "Powerhouse" by composer Raymond Scott. You've probably heard it in a million cartoons - lots of people have been copying Scott's music for years, or plugging it in as incidental cartoon music. Mark is an admirer and now works with the Raymond Scott Archive.

As for the song, I like it. It goes from Nazis to a sort of mechanical spiritualism of capital society in record time.
