WEIMAR WELTSCHMERZ

“Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I can't help it”
—Marlene Dietrich
“Falling in Love Again”
_____________

Here I go again, my dears—
Falling in Weltschmerz again
What am I do but wallow
In Weimar again?

Love's always been my game—
Down in the bunker again
Play it how they may
They can't help it
_________

Men cluster to me—
Like moths around a flame
So what if their wings burn
I’m just a Luftwaffe dame

Weimar Weltschmerz again—
Never much wanted to
What am I to do?
I just can't help it
