The Lyrics

The Sturmtiger is a little-known variant of the Tiger I tank with an added heavy box-like superstructure carrying a massive 380mm mortar!!! Brandenburger Eisenwerke (Brandenburg Iron Works) made the superstructures and Alkett made the Tiger conversions for the final vehicle assembly. Only 18 were built and used in defense of the Fatherland in 1945. Armor was 150mm front, 80mm side and rear, and 45/25mm top/bottom. It carried 14 rounds and had an aux. 7.92mm MG-34 machinegun with 600 rounds. The shells were rocket-assisted and the gun tube had venting to blow-forward the exhaust. Range of an incredible 4900 m in WW2!!! However, they made easy targets for Allied marauder aircraft and most just *broke down either mechanically under that weight or ran out of rounds and/or gas quickly in 1945 fighting. Many of them were just found abandoned...
Sturmtiger aimed at you
weight of 65 (tons)

Tiger I to be converted
Morser tryin’
Alkett supplyin’

They built an armored giant
Firin’ rocket rounds
Monster proved to be deadly
But eventually it broke down*

Sturmtiger aimed at you
weight of 65 (tons)
In ‘45

Few produced
Few produced
Few produced
18 to be exact
So few to spare
Defense of Germany
380 (mm) attack!

Was startling
Sturmtiger aimed at you
weight of 65 (tons)
(and rocket-firing)!

For the low-ball rater: Sir or Madam, NOT all parodies are meant to be funny. My SJH info-parodies concern history, warfare, obscure materials, and current events. You may not approve of this material, but there are some that do and the majority of these songs get good ratings. I try to provide something for everyone,, but since I specialize in Third Reich anything, I do many parodies from that time period. I am into tech, so this parody is about a radical AFV. I leave links at the bottom for you to view this machine. TY for your understanding in the future...

Wow, this was like hilariously funny, man! I don't know what came over me but I'm laughing hysterically, you know

Bong, sarcasm aside, learning is a good thing IMHO. No, this isn't even meant to be funny- but educational. A parody does NOT have to be funny all the time. Technically, a parodist can spoof an OS any way he wants simply by changing the lyrics to suit his style or topic chosen. I am truly sorry if you took any offense. These are info-parodies and are meant to follow the news, educate, and explore obscure things for entertainment. I hope in the future you can be more open-minded, seriously.
