Our quest today took us some way
Deep under Colma town …
Where someone’s grown a Cypress clone
That’s trying to put us down!
We run in fear, but then I hear
My phone receive a call …
Nick’s asking us, “Say, can you cuss?”
That won’t be hard at all!
[CHORUS:]
So can I swear in Korean?
I’m running for my life!
Zombies are attacking now,
And I’m deeply in strife!
I’m gonna swear in Korean,
While running for my life!
Better be recording this,
’Cause with anger it’s rife!
Now, Nick’s a doll, but why’d he call
At the most inconvenient time?
It ain’t no fun to try and run
Through knee-deep poo and slime!
I’ll give you words you’ve never heard,
That your swear filter can’t control,
With language strong, as we’re Inchon along,
From the bottom of my Seoul! [repeat CHORUS]
Virginia! You don’t understand! This is both really important and incredibly time-sensitive! What could you possibly be doing right now that’s more urgent?
This reminds me of the scene in Chicken Little where Abby yells them them to “…both just stop messing around and DEAL with the problem!”…
That movie is a microcosm of everything that’s important. It’s quite likely the best thing to come out of Disney since the old man put his brain on ice; with the possible exception of Phineas & Ferb… I have no idea how THAT gem of countercultural rebellion ever got past the Disney censors, much less got funding.
You’d think the swear filter already HAS Korean swears in it though; since it WAS Ginny who programmed it…
Mnementh is probably correct, but Nick didn’t ASK if the filter was already programmed to block Korean swear words, and Dr. Lee is a bit too distracted to wonder.
Good to know that Nick has his priorities in order. Virginia must have a heck of a phone provider if she’s getting a signal all the way down there (well, I’m not an expert on the nuances of cellphone reception, but I would think you wouldn’t get any bars in a sewer).
I got nuthin
Bad timing, or perfect timing? XD
The twist:
The Filter already knows Korean Swears.

Once again, your lyrics are 100 times better than the original.
GG, Zerg OP.
Wait, whaddayaMEAN that’s not Korean, I hear that ALL THE TIME from my Korean opponents!
Virginia! You don’t understand! This is both really important and incredibly time-sensitive! What could you possibly be doing right now that’s more urgent?
Oh, why do I get the feeling this won’t end too well?
Nick should just use that recording to swear. Then again, I suppose playing recorded swears just isn’t as satisfying as actually swearing…

mnem
What? Since when do I know anything?
Mnementh is probably correct, but Nick didn’t ASK if the filter was already programmed to block Korean swear words, and Dr. Lee is a bit too distracted to wonder.

Why isn’t Tip blasting away with “Alice”?
Actually, Saberbeam, there are plenty of bars in the sewer. The prices are good, but the atmosphere is terrible.

Not nearly random enough…

“If you’d have been there, if you’d have seen it; you would have done the same…”
I wish I could get cell reception that good when I’m down in the sewers.
Nick is about to get his wish. She is about to swear at him in English, Korean, and whatever other language she knows.
Na pu da! Na pu da! : D
Is that a food reference?
The joke probably is that there is probably a Swear Filter Off mode in Nick, disguised by governmentalese– “Access Standby” or some such…
I wonder what her ringtone for Nick is?
I’m betting either Iron Man, or the theme from Top Gun.
