You know who gets all the best tunes

Things to do when you should be marking students' work #572: rewrite the lyrics to Stalinist personality cult songs.

No Motherland Without You
a perhaps untrustworthy translation of the North Korean song

You warded off the nuclear storm,
or so you told us, Comrade Kim Jong-il!
Without you we're dead meat?
Our state would not exist without you!

Our future and hope depend on you
if you take my meaning, elderly Comrade Kim Jong-il!
Without you we're dead meat –
our state would not exist without you!

Global changes mean fuck-all to us.
We believe in the devil, Comrade Kim Jong-il, and he wears a khaki suit!
With you dead everything would be different –
our state would not exist without you!

You told us it would be OK, Comrade Kim Jong-il!
Our state would not exist without you!

Based on Wikipedia's translation:

No Motherland Without You

You pushed away the severe storm
You made us believe, Comrade Kim Jong Il
We cannot live without you
Our country cannot exist without you!

Our future and hope depend on you
People's fate depends on you, Comrade Kim Jong Il!
We cannot live without you
Our country cannot exist without you!

Even if the world changes hundreds of times
People believe in you, Comrade Kim Jong Il
We cannot live without you
Our country cannot exist without you!

You gave us belief, Comrade Kim Jong Il
Our country cannot exist without you!
