Over 100 anti-Kaiser songs were
produced by Tin Pan Alley, such as:
We Are Out for the Scalp of Mister
Kaiser, We Want the Kaiser's Helmet
Now, and We Will Make the Kaiser
Wiser, We're Going to Hang the Kaiser
on the Linden Tree, We're Going to
Whip the Kaiser, The Crazy Kaiser, I'd
Like to See the Kaiser with a Lily in
His Hand, We'll Give the Stars and
Stripes to the Kaiser, If I Only Had My
Razor Under the Kaiser's Chin, Shoot
the Kaiser and The Kaiser is a Devil.
Even after the war ended, hate songs
continued: Hang the Kaiser to the Sour
Apple Tree, We've Turned His
Moustache Down, We Sure Got the
Kaiser, We Did, and The Kaiser Now is
Wiser came out after the armistice.
Samples of newly published anti-German propaganda songs were printed in Sunday supplements to
promote them. Many were aimed specifically for children, especially little boys.
As if Sunday newspapers were not enough, even church
Sunday schools got in the act. While mom and dad were
hearing sermons justifying war, killing. hate and revenge,
the kiddies were downstairs in church basements with little
"beat-up the hun" coloring books.
