Coordinates: 40°00′N 127°00′E / 40°N 127°E / 40; 127 The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK; Chosŏn'gŭl: 조선민주주의인민공화국), commonly referred to as "North Korea" ( listen), is a country in East Asia, occupying the northern half of the Korean Peninsula. Its capital and largest city is Pyongyang. The Korean Demilitarized Zone serves as the buffer zone between North Korea and South Korea. The Amnok, or Yalu, and the Tumen rivers form the border between North Korea and China. A section of the Tumen River in the far northeast is the border with Russia.
The peninsula was governed by the Korean Empire until it was annexed by Japan after the Russo-Japanese War in 1910. It was divided into Soviet- and American-occupied zones in 1945, after the end of World War II. North Korea refused to participate in a United Nations–supervised election held in the south in 1948, which led to the creation of separate Korean governments for the two occupation zones. North and South Korea each claimed sovereignty over the whole Korean Peninsula, which led to the Korean War of 1950. The Armistice Agreement of 1953 ended the fighting; but the two countries are officially still at war against each other, for a peace treaty was never signed. Both states were accepted into the United Nations in 1991.
I want to be the last of my kind,
the last man standing.
I want to dig my own hole to die in,
because I’m temporary.
Let’s make a mess out of everything.
Break a heart and then teach it to sing.
We’re only temporary.
Let us pick an addiction,
and sell it to make a living.
We’re only temporary.
I am the saddle and you are the ass,
We’ll ride this little horsey to our magnificent crash.
‘cause we’re fucking temporary.
Now we were born to particular Gods,
‘cause we could all shit the bed tomorrow,
because we’re temporary.
Hey, you’re invited, we’re waging a war,
and we will write it in blood on your door.
“My God can beat up your God.”
Give them all your money,
sleep naked in the rain,
and when they stare,
growl through your mane.
Piss into the wind,
and dangle from a power line.
Drink them under the table,
You’re a big man,
she deserves a good daddy.
Learn to tie your shoes first,
come on, Sally.
You can be whatever you want now,
come on, Sally.
Just remember that without you the
troops will still rally.
I want you to try this with me.
When I say,
“blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,”
you make believe you’ve got
stones between those legs.
It wasn’t the rabbit in the cage,
that desecrated the page.
The newspaper pissed itself,
I love it when they wear a week’s worth on their faces.
I left it all at home,
and took only knuckles and cold blood.
Take one or two for kicks,
make you famous with my fists,
bare boned and bear clawing,
like a newborn, because I would love to be broken in.
I’ve got your back.
But when that bell rings
I will not stand naked for me,
only for him, and then I’ll begin to break you in.
Grab his collar then just swing away.
6 tooth smile.
Take my name off of the flag,
I will not walk in the parade,
Unsung and swollen, step aside,
My hands are useless ‘til they’re bleeding.
I’ve been wired for this wreck.
I never chose this, I was chosen.
I’m stitched and ready to be,
the juggernaut behind the curtain,
just trust in me.
Now when that bell rings,
And my fists are closed, naked,
I don’t care if it’s your praise that they sing,
I can smash a glass against the wall,
pick up the pieces and we’re better for it.
‘Cause you know everybody weds,
then the beast can mow the lawn,
and the queen can feed the kids.
And we’ll be better for it.
I’m not impressed, suburbia.
Could you do a little better for me?
I’m gonna smile ‘till my teeth ache,
I am determined for my family’s sake.
Happily married like the rest of them,
I’m better ‘cause I buy American.
I’m not impressed suburbia.
