The Lyrics

The South Koreans have been noticeably anti-American lately, despite the fact that the USA has protected them for the past 50 years. We suggest pulling our troops out, thus causing millions of South Koreans to collectively crap their pants.DMZ = "Demilitarized Zone"R-K-D-P is DPRK (North Korea) backwards, for rhyming
CHORUS 1:
USA's your friend
Well, not your only friend
But we're not overbearing friends
How silly that you don't call us friends
But we are

CHORUS 2:
Pale blue helmet staring across the DMZ
Who will watch over you?
When we pull our troopers out of Seoul
Not to put too fine a point on it
But who will protect you from conquest
When we pull our troopers out of Seoul...

There are no secrets to tell
You way of life sure is swell
We fought to stop Red China sounding out your collective death knell
But you don't know the price to be free
Kept dissin' Dubya B.
When we keep you safe from the guys from R-K-D-P
Moronic plebians!
Such ungrateful insolence it doesn't rest

CHORUS 2
CHORUS 1

There's a madman opposite thee
With plans of global anarchy
Kim Jong Il's tried before and he'll try again, it seems to me
You don't respect Dubya Bush
But you'll be sorry when Kim kicks your tush
Appears to be that our presence is all that forces a push
But where's your gratitude?
You bunch of prudes! Invasion's near!

CHORUS 2

(Just keep at it! We will pull all of our troopers out of Seoul...)

Not to put too fine a point on it
But who will protect you from conquest
When we pull our troopers out of Seoul...

Pale blue helmet staring across the DMZ (Just keep at it!)
Who will watch over you? (We will pull all our troopers)
When we pull our troopers out of Seoul (troopers out of Seoul)

LOL! Great parody and also a truthful message. We need more parodies about Korea these days (everyone's either writing something about Saddam, or spoofing Sk8tr Boi).

It is so close to the original its amazing. Its also a good laugh but quite repetetive. Nevertheless, I couldn't have done a better job! Up the Bolsheviks!
