I Knew This Was Trouble
Once upon a time a few conflicts ago
The Jews were in his sight, he got them alone
They're dying, dying, dying
I guess appeasing didn't work, and I guess Hitler liked that
And when the Jews fell hard the U.S. took a step in
With the Allies, with the Allies , with the Allies
And he's long gone when the Allies came into Germany
And Hitler realized the blame is on him
'Cause I knew he was trouble when he became king
So shame on Louis XVI (16th)
Gave us the taxes we never had
The Bourgeoisie were mad,
I knew she was trouble when she became queen
So shame on Marie Antoinette
Spent money I'd never seen
Now I'm paying so many taxes
Oh, oh, conflict, conflict, conflict
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
No apologies, he'll never see you cry
Pretend he doesn't know that he's the reason why
You're paying, his taxes, crying
Now I heard she bought more from whispers on the street
A new diamond on her ring is all I've ever heard
And now I see, now I see, now I see
He's long gone when he saw them outside his palace
And he realized the joke is on him, yeah!
'Cause I knew he was trouble when he walked in
oh, trouble, trouble, trouble, yeah
I knew it was trouble when it happened
yeah, trouble, trouble, trouble
