And the girl at central listened in to hear what they had to say. "Hello", she heard the kaiser's voice "Is old man Satan home?" Just tell him it is kaiser Bill who, wants him on the phone." The devil said "hello" to Bill and Bill said, "how are you?" I am running here a hell on earth, so tell me what to do." "What can I do?" the devil said, my dear old kaiser bill. If there's a thing that I can do to help you I sure will. " The Kaiser said, "Now listen, and I will try and tell The way that I am running on earth a modern hell, I've planned this war for many years, and started out to kill. It's going to be a modern .job, leave it to kaiser Bill." "My army went thru Belguim shooting babies and- women down. We have torn up all their country and blown up many a town. My Zepps dropped bombs on cities killing both old and young. And any the Zepplins d dn't get 1 bad taken out and hung." "I started out for Paris, with the aid of poisonous gas, And the Belgians, damn them stopped me and wouldn'tlet me pass.

They go sneaking thru the sea and sink all ships on sight, I was running things to suit me till a year ago or so, When a man named Woodrow Wilson wrote me to go more slow, He said to. me: Now William, we don't want to make you sore, But be sure and tell your U-boats to sink our ships no more. We have told you for the last time so dear Bill its up to you. For if you insist on doing it, you'll have to fight us too! I wouldn't listen to him, so he's come after me, With two million yankee soldiers from their homes across the sea That's why I called you, Satan, for I want advice from you, For I know that you will tell me just what I ought to do." "My dear Kaiser William, there's not much for me to tell, For the Yankee will make it hot ter than I can for you in hell. I'ye been a mean old devil but I'm not half so mean as you, And the minute that you get here I will give my job to you. I'll be ready for your coming and I'll keep the fires bright. I will have your room all ready, when the Yanks begin to fight, For those Yanks will surely get you, I've nothing more to tell. Hang up the phone and get your hat and meet me here in hell."
