The Lyrics

SOE tactics got so juvenile in WW2 that childish prank material like itching powder was used to attack the Germans in occupied Europe on a grand scale involving military and civilians alike.
They put an itch on you
Prank worked fine

Lots of stuff dropped by Typhoons
Clouds attackin'
Then lots of scratchin'

Inside cities, local bandits
Powder to laundries bound
Thousands of uniforms sprinkled
One U-boat re- ported, crew down
(Severe dermatitis seemed sound)

They put an itch on you
Prank worked fine
Especially in Trondheim

Condoms too
Troops were screwed
Hospital zoo
Soreness everywhere
Not fighting fair
Down and dirty
SOE didn't care

A victory?
They put an itch on you
Prank worked fine
(Reichspost complained of letter tampering!)
