Song: Wasted Away Again in Sojuville
Written by: Tiger Beer
Album: Changes in Longitude
-------------------------------

Nibblin' on rice cake
Watchin the sun bake
All of this country smellin' like kimchee
I almost stepped in vomit
I wish they'd just stop it
Everyone's drunk including me

Wastin' away again in Sojuville
Searching for what I was just talkin' 'bout
Some people claim that the Americans are to blame
But I know its really just ****** fault

I don't know the reasons
This country has four seasons
Nothin' to show but this drunk Korean chickie
She's a real beauty
A Korean cutie
How she got here I haven't a clue

Wastin' away again in Sojuville
Searching for what I was just talkin' 'bout
Some people claim that the Americans are to blame
Now I think
Its probably just ****** fault


--------------------

Struggling with the **** word however. Gonna put 'Bush' but then thought it makes it too political. Also gonna put 'Canada' just to be funny but thought it might not be that funny. Gonna say its all my goddam fault just to put something there.. but went with asterisks instead..

EDIT: The title of the thread.

Just to make the hook line scan a bit better, I'd recommend going to the same four syllables that 'margarita' has - SojuMaekjuVille maybe?

Otherwise, good one!

First, I like your "goddamn fault" a whole bunch, sounds good when having had too much soju.

What about 'ajoshi' As in: "But I know its really just the ajoshi's fualt"

Though it doesn't sound as good as 'goddamn'

Dae Han as in Dae Han Min Kook, the full name for South Korea. Also the first part of that now annoying chant that was all the rage during the World Cup: "Dae-Han-Min-Kook!" (clap-clap clap clap clap).

Could also be done as HanKookSojuVille, a more accurate way of using the short form for Korea in the phrase. Dae Han sounds smoother though.

Wasted away again in Mekjusojuville
Searching for my lost pecker in pants
Some people claim that there's an AAAjuma to blame
But I know, it's America's fault
