First, to be crystal clear about it before I'm assumed to be promoting violence, I am not actually in favor of punching Nazis...except, I guess, if it's necessary for the safety of others. I'm a pretty old school peacenik, anti-violence perhaps to a fault, and I just believe that as humans, we are meant to be better than that.
With that said, any Nazis that do get punched had it coming to them.
Here's one of my favorite anti-Nazi tunes, from the band Leftöver Crack. I share it with the obligatory acknowledgment that, from what I've heard and read, this band's frontman may not be a very admirable guy himself. I certainly encourage you to learn what you can about that if it is of concern to you. However, it doesn't change the fact that Leftöver Crack and the band they grew out of, Choking Victim, are tremendously influential ska/punk/crust/core acts, borderline legendary, and their "crack rock steady" sound absolutely blew many of us away back in the day. Some of their tracks are still just unforgettable anthems.
Alright, sorry about all the caveats today. Time to skank. This one isn't about punching, but there's certainly some ill will wished upon them. Here's "Nazi White Trash":

I'm not sure that's the tune I want to turn into a sound for a Rudie to cast, though. So, I'm gonna go back to the first song I heard from this crew, back when I was introduced to the band Choking Victim on Hellcat Records' first Give 'Em the Boot compilation, a crucial piece in many kids' musical journeys, almost 30 freaking years ago.
I love this track. This is "Infested"...
Infested
2nd-level Sound
Casting time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Duration: 10 minutes
Save: Strength
This sound infests the target's body with lice. A failed Strength save when cast means the target is treated as if it is Restrained (cannot move from current location, +1 to attacks targeting it, -1 to its attacks and any actions requiring Dexterity). The target may reroll the save at the beginning of each turn. With any successful save, the target is treated as Restrained but retains its normal ability to move for the duration of the spell.

If the spell remains in effect for the full 10 minutes, the target makes one final Strength save as it disappears. If failed, the target takes 1D6-1 Rash damage, which can be healed as any other damage.
