My country's national anthem is just one long stupid rhetorical question that's impossible to sing. It's super embarrassing at international sporting events when it's consistently the worst one there.
At least yours isn't a boring, religious-cum-monarchical dirge like ours
Not only that, it's a racist poem slapped on top of the melody to a British drinking song.
What country are you from?
The United States of America
If you have a problem with the way Jesus authored The Star-Spangled Banner, then maybe you should move to France: La Marseillaise doesn’t allude to slavery or take pride in Americans committing treason against their leader in London.
La Marseillaise is an awesome anthem. I wish ours were 1% as cool but all we get is 5 minutes of sucking the Christian god's dick.
AUX AAAAARMES, CITOYEEEENS! FORMEEEZ VOS BATAILLOOOONS!
