The Lyrics
Some things you just can't get in North Korea...
Still taboo,
Pairs of jeans,
Or any of the Western things
Don't own much,
Condoms and tampons not for use,
No hair dyes: no pinks, reds, greens, nor blues!
Still taboo,
Owned property,
House swaps for families only
No fast food lunch,
No McDonald's nor Coke for you,
Starbucks... no, they have no clue
Instant coffee is their brew...
No pain meds makes life feel cruel
And cigs are banned under Kim's rule
Pairs of jeans,
Or any of the Western things
Don't own much,
Condoms and tampons not for use,
No hair dyes: no pinks, reds, greens, nor blues!
Still taboo,
Owned property,
House swaps for families only
No fast food lunch,
No McDonald's nor Coke for you,
Starbucks... no, they have no clue
Instant coffee is their brew...
No pain meds makes life feel cruel
And cigs are banned under Kim's rule
I didn't mention electronics because the State has it's own version of television, intranet, and approved music on vinyl. Kim Jong Un, his administration, military leaders, and approved state University students all have limited amounts of high technology with western access, but the range of information is restricted and monitored.

line 10 is terrifying! 455
Just remember Jon, Kim Jong Il invented the hamburger as " double bread with meat!" North Koreans have fast food, but it's nothing like the West. There's even North Korean pizza! Btw, both Christmas trees and eggnog are banned!
^ those fools!
