The lyrics, I suppose they could be called, to Beethoven's 9th Symphony 4th Movement, Abridged? To give a reference, it is often called March from a Clockwork Orange. Google hasn't given me anything. Three boxes of whiskey to the person who can find them.

Are you talking about Ode to Joy?
No. It's played in a Clockwork Orange in the seen where Alex is in the record store.

Why do you need to know?
I've had the tune stuck in my head for about six months and I wish to know the words.

So you can sing it in your head instead of just humming it?

I don't know if they rewrote the words for Clockwork Orange, but it's definitely 'Ode to Joy'.
http://www.r-ds.com/opera/resource/ninth.htm Has the words in German and you can go to something like iTunes and listen to a sample.
This is what you're looking for, I'm pretty sure.

Yes.
You are jolly insane.
Good luck with that.
Got it! It is "Ode to Joy" being run through a vocal synthizer.
“March from A Clockwork Orange,” which is actually a chunk of the fourth movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony (the choral movement that includes the famous “Ode to Joy”).
