The Lyrics
In 1942, Krupp proposed the largest tank in history- the P.1000 Landkreuzer (Land cruiser) which Hitler named Ratte (Rat). This had a weight of 1000 tons, far heavier than the PzKpfw VIII Maus at 188 tons! Main gun was a variant of a naval 280mm artillery cannon SK C34 used by KMS Gneisenau. Speer as armaments minister put it to a stop in 1943. All old records claim the tank was never built. This is only partially true. The turret with 280mm single gun was completed and was moved to the Atlantic Wall in Norway off Kristiansand. It is the only naval gun in a tank turret in the Atlantic Wall and it still remains in place.
Albert Speer cancelled you
Just in time
With Hitler no getting through
No cap on Reichsmark spendin'
More gigantic, more befriendin'
Krupp thought they could handle it
Engineers were sought and found
Speer just wanted to dismantle it
But a naval gun was found
Turret made for it and seaward bound
Albert Speer cancelled you
Just in time
Couldn't save the Reich
It was huge
Heavy too
One would do
But the mod would have a twin
Hitler didn't care
He lived his dreams in fantasy
On a battlefield this couldn't win!
Defied reality
Albert Speer cancelled you
Just in time
(Moved to Atlantic Wall in Norway)
Just in time
With Hitler no getting through
No cap on Reichsmark spendin'
More gigantic, more befriendin'
Krupp thought they could handle it
Engineers were sought and found
Speer just wanted to dismantle it
But a naval gun was found
Turret made for it and seaward bound
Albert Speer cancelled you
Just in time
Couldn't save the Reich
It was huge
Heavy too
One would do
But the mod would have a twin
Hitler didn't care
He lived his dreams in fantasy
On a battlefield this couldn't win!
Defied reality
Albert Speer cancelled you
Just in time
(Moved to Atlantic Wall in Norway)
