Medic

Stolen from "Tommy" by Rudyard Kipling

I went into ze forums to get a bit o' cheer,
Ze heavy schweinhund says, "We need no medics here."
Ze liebchen in ze shout box laughed und giggled for to die,
I leave into ze welt again und to myself say I:
Ach it's Medic this, und Medic that, und "Medic, go away";
But it's "Thank you, kindly Doctor", when ze sentry guns hold sway,
Ze sentry guns hold sway, meine Herr , ze sentry guns hold sway,
Ach it's "Thank you, kindly Doctor", when ze sentry guns hold sway.​

I posted to a thread as humble as could be,
They gave a drunken demo heed, but not a jot for me;
They sent me to ze Q&A or round ze art work halls,
But when they come up wounded, Lord! they'll deafen me with calls!
For it's Medic this, und Medic that, und Medic's we deride";
But it's "We sure need a Doctor" when ze foe has turned ze tide,
Ze foe has turned ze tide, meine Herr, ze foe has turned ze tide,
Ach it's "We sure need a Doctor" when ze foe has turned ze tide.​
Yes, making mock of kill assists of those your health do keep
Is cheaper than those kill assists, und they are kabbage cheap;
Und sneering at our mediguns that will not ever harm
Is nicht sehr comical when you are screaming in alarm.
Then it's Medic help, und Medic here, und "Medic, keep me whole"
Ach it's "Bitte meine Herr Doktor" when ze mini guns do roll,
Ze mini guns do roll, meine Herr, ze mini guns do roll,
Ach it's "Bitte meine Herr Doktor" when ze mini guns do roll.​
We are not ze Reichland's heroes, but we are no cowards too,
But single men in white, most remarkable like you;
und if sometimes our prowess is not all you would demand,
Why, single men in white will still come to lend a hand;
While it's Medic this, und Medic that, und "Medic, fall behind",
But it's "Please to come with me, Doc", when there's trouble in ze wind,
There's trouble in ze wind, meine Herr, There's trouble in ze wind,
Ach it's "Please to come with me, Doc", when there's trouble in ze wind.​

You talk of better hats for us, und guns, und stats, und all:
We vill vait for fancy hats if you treat us rational.
Do not talk about achievements, but prove it to our face
Ze White Uniform is not ze TF2 disgrace.
For it's Medic this, und Medic that, und "Chuck him out, ze brute!"
But it's "Danke schon Herr Doktor" when ze guns begin to shoot;
und it's Medic this, und Medic that, und anything you please;
und Medic is not such a fool -- you bet that Medic sees!​

I love it, Great song and these lyrics go perfectly with it. Great Job!
 
Makes me shead a tear for all the awsome medics we have on eGO *looks over at Woodstock*

This is truely why we play medic
 
That was preeeeeetty win. I was mentally singing along with it too. A good read for sure.
 
but
the medic sais "ze" and not "the" :D

if you want a translation of the german words in it let me know :D:D
 
Should be recorded and played before every eG vs eGO dog tag scrim. :)
 
Does the Medic say "that" or "zat"? In short, should all the "th" sounds become "z"s?
