Weird Al Yankovic - The North Korea Polka (Please Don't Nuke Us) Lyrics






Would you annihilate us if you had the chance?
That's such an antisocial thing to do
You've got us crapping our collective pants
May I suggest you take it down a notch or two

We're not exactly sure why you're upset
Did that Seth Rogen movie make you super mad?
You'd like us if you got to know us i bet
We're mostly harmless decent people, hey we're really not so bad

My point is!
Please don't nuke us North Korea
Right now we're all a little tense
Believe me!
We don't hate you
Frankly we don't even think that much about you, no offense

Now you might call us "bloodthirsty dogs"
But that metaphor's not very apt
Were just a bunch of simple fidget-spinning goofy dorks
Who probably couldn't find your country on a map

No we're not savages or cannibals
Well maybe just a really really really small percent
So I think it would be best if you'd knock off those missile tests
Don't turn us into cinder while we're swiping right on Tinder
Don't jump start Armageddon or our beds will soon be wetter
Won't you think this through for a moment please
Now why would you bomb our nice celebrities?
Oh why in the world would you kill Tom Hanks?
Cause nobody doesn't like Tom Hanks!

So!
Please don't nuke us North Korea
That would seriously ruin our day
Remember!
We're not evil psychotic monsters
No matter what the news may say
We're just those goofballs from the U.S.A!
(Please don't nuke us)
(Please don't nuke us)
(Please don't nuke us)
Hey!

  13. W.... C....

    Why isn't this song on iTunes?

  14. M.... V....

    Weird al yankovic says Trump sucks just like North Korea!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

  15. J.... S....

    "The central reason why most of the world hates America is that America does not know most of the world hates America."

  16. C.... ....

    He's almost 60. God i love this man.

  17. P.... ....

    "this just in, north korea has kidnapped tom hanks and is now sending threats to the USA once again!"

  19. J.... M....

    me at 10 PM I'm gonna sleep early
    me at 3 AM still ain't sleeping and finding new and weird stuff on YouTube

  20. D.... O....

    Still waiting for this to be released officially

  21. D.... ....

    This really reminds me of South Park songs

  22. K.... K....

    Someone who knows Korean should dub this

  23. T.... R....

    I’m guessing the 283 people who disliked this video are among the really, really small percentage of savages & cannibals, who now feel personally attacked.

    The rest of us love you, Al!

  24. L.... ....

    Not so bad? You guys are way worse. Not the regular folk, but the government.

  25. l.... ....

    this is how you age when you’re not problematic

  26. A.... A....

    Imagine Kim Jong Un seeing this.

  27. K.... O....

    OH WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU KILL TOM HANKS?!

  28. c.... ....

    Weird al + last week tonight + North Korea = GOLD

  29. t.... m....

    Now North Korea has nukes and rockets to mail them here just in time for the American Elections.

  30. J.... W....

    Where can I buy that shirt?

  31. T.... G....

    The part about killing Tom Hanks got me.

  32. C.... P....

    22222 anyone?

  33. N.... ....

    And there are still people who support this disgraced Korea (example: commies that hate murica)

  34. N.... P....

    Kim Kong Un heard this, "HA HA, this very funny. Okay, we no nuke America".
    Once again, the day is saved, thanks to...Wierd Al☺.

  35. s.... ....

    I don't think it was the Seth Rogen film that made them mad, it was the Weird Al Yankovic film that pissed them off.

  36. A.... c....

    It worked!

  37. W.... k....

    Weird Al 2020

  38. B.... C....

    Preventing a Christmas at ground zero.

  39. P.... t....

    Yet still the most joyful song I've ever liked

  40. T.... ....

    This is so wholesome it might cure disease.

  41. U.... P....

    Please Don't Nuke us North Korea, we don't want to turn your little country into a radioactive Hellscape.

  42. i.... ....

    This song did not age well.

    i.... ....

    Yes it did.

  43. l.... ....

    Speaking as a former opera singer who has had years of training, I have to say, aside from being brilliant and hilarious, his DICTION is PERFECT. You never have trouble understanding his lyrics!

  44. K.... H....

    I am in heaven right now! I love you Weird Al!!!!!!

  45. c.... l....

    Move to mexico or the u.k youd be safe north korea only knows about 5 countries

  46. B.... N....

    Tinder? I don't think the North Koreans are gonna understand

  47. V.... ....

    *_Kim Jong Un_*_ has left the server_

  48. G.... H....

    You get better with age, Weird Al!

  49. s.... ....

    And at least he's admitting we are a bunch of goofballs. I'll admit that too. And I don't think a lot of us could find OUR country on a map.

  50. s.... ....

    Well, thanks to Al, we're no longer crapping in our collective pants.

  51. R.... M....

    277 dislikes from North Korean bureaucrats

  52. C.... t....

    I don't about Kim Jong Un, but if I was a dictator and Weird Al gave the reason to not nuke them, I'd stop the nukes.




    Right after they gave us money and weren't pointing their nukes at US, but Al would ease the tension.




    Until I realize he was on the Annoying Orange, then the tension would rise, then I'd realize it's super fitting, then it would go back down again.

  53. M.... ....

    * NoRtH KoReA WaNtS tO kNoW YoUr LoCaTiOn *

  54. C.... ....

    I want to buy this song

  55. W.... A....

    And on my birthday I’m am fullfilled

  56. M.... S....

    How is this not on spotify?

  57. c.... l....

    Im safe from north korea b
    But i worry about america and japan i love america and japan north korea dosent even know my country or even continent apart from Switzerland

  58. O.... ....

    Its wierd, the dude is so clearly very talented but his music hurts my ears

  59. m.... ....

    He who is tired of Weird Al is tired of life.

  60. A.... ....

    That Tuba player is just going at it lol

  61. c.... ....

    Our savior has returned!!!

  62. E.... ....

    When the Korean Peninsula was divided back in 1945, the U.S. secretary of state reportedly didn't even know where it was! The people who divided it used a National Geographic map!

  63. J.... ....

    Ironic... “we don’t really know why you want to nuke us”

  64. J.... U....

    Korean War killing millions, sanctions, constant threats to invade, constant lies about their society - why does North Korea hate us?

    J.... U....

    Because they've learned from history, that as soon as a country gives up its nuclear weapons, the US kills the leader and takes over their country.
    The US has a huge military presence in South Korea, just waiting...as usual.

  65. M.... 1....

    I wonder if he has back problems?

  66. P.... W....

    Nice accordian. Can't even follow his left hand work.

  67. J.... C....

    Weird Al deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to negotiate peace between North Korea and the USA.

  68. d.... ....

    Memo to late night tv: A little more entertainment and much less communist propaganda.

    d.... ....

    dakruise1 huh?

  69. J.... B....

    Congratulations Al for this contribution to world peace. There may be a Nobel in your future.

  70. k.... ....

    The minute Kim saw this, he immediately said "Oh my god, not tom hanks!!!" And immediately cancelled his plans XP

    k.... ....

    Yeah, he wasn't going to say he hated Hanks.

  71. L.... R....

    Thank you Weird Al and Dennis Rodman for peace with N. Korea , we love all the peacemaker s !!!!!!!!!!!

  72. �.... ....

    Trump will meet Kim tomorrow

  73. j.... R....

    Al needs to sings this at the North Korea summit

  74. M.... ....

    True who doesn't at like Tom Hanks a least a little.

  75. S.... T....

    Any North Koreans out there watching this? What do you think?

  76. u.... ....

    Everybody Polka

  77. R.... C....

    Remind me of Veggie Tales

  78. T.... M....

    I have a bad feeling Tom Hanks is going to be accused of sexual harassment or something and this video will become a time capsule.

    T.... M....

    The Medicated Artist I doubt it. He’s so likable that if he made advances on anyone they’d immediately give in and let him do it. I know I would.

  79. H.... B....

    "nobody doesn't like tom hanks"

    True

  80. 4.... D....

    Its been a couple weeks since i went to a Weird Al concert! too bad this was not on the song list!

  81. s.... ....

    He's right about Tom Hanks.....

  82. s.... ....

    Okay, new song for next album.

  83. G.... H....

    Ein prosit!

  84. N.... M....

    Weird Al saved the world confirmed

  85. A.... N....

    Voy a ser feliz si algún día, en algún lugar y de alguna forma, Kim Jong Un hace referencia a esta obra maestra

  86. L.... ....

    Give Weird Al the Peace Prize!

  87. G.... B....

    I wanna live to see the day when Valkyrie Variable Transforming Robojets are invented and some genius clones Weird al to pilot the unit! Damn it! am I the only macross fan in this comment section?! Oh well he didn't need it to stop those nukes so I guess he did it heheheh

  88. P.... F....

    This is why north Korea is now more social

  89. r.... ....

    Accordion diplomacy

  90. F.... M....

    Does. He. Ever. Age?

  91. j.... ....

    You know, way back when I was watching The Weird Al Show, I honestly never thought he'd still be around today.
    I'm so glad he is.

  92. M.... l....

    Weird Al should have been president

  93. L.... V....

    Thank you for bringing world peace Al ♥

  94. A.... M....

    Mission accomplished™?

  95. M.... ....

    Thanks Weird Al for saving the world.

  96. K.... L....

    IT WORKED haha

  97. p.... ....

    Thank God Trump is going to fix all this North Korea stuff.

  98. T.... W....

    With the probable meeting with Trump and Kim Jong Un later this year. It's insane to think this song had an impact on North Korea relations. You might just save the world Weird Al!

  99. N.... C....

    Proof that Weird Al can make ANYTHING fun!

  100. W.... C....

    How do you say "fidget spinning goofy dorks" in Korean?
