And it loses something in the translation too.
A bit like
"Ich bin ein Viktoria - er - Berliner."
(An obscure joke involving doughnuts)
Ruamschiffe Enterprise "Beemen Sie mir zuruck, Schottie!"
(Yes, it sounds hilarious to an English speaker)
Something like the abominable Tutti-Frutti would blow the minds of
most Americans. Man O Man was tried here ( did you know
that Grundy Productions is an Australian firm?) but wasn't
successful.
This is getting really off-topic so I'll stop.
But it would be nice to have some marching songs of the major powers.
The ones I know from the OU would all be unprintable though.
