[The Producers - Broadway version] Why were the lyrics to Springtime for Hitler, written by a devoted adorer of Hitler, so campy?

Up until opening night, Franz was always meant to be playing Hitler, and Roger knew thw lyrics by heart, so presumably the lyrics were unchanged, just Rogers performance. But even ignoring that, the lyrics Roger sings are campy and silly - why would Franz write them that way, and how on earth would he have delivered them respectfully?

There was *never* a way to deliver the lines respectfully. Franz is an idiot and a fanatic, who is so tone deaf to the general public that he honestly believes that he could go goose-stepping across the stage barking "Heil Me" and people would applaud.
