41. The Ninotchkian Royal Family Anthem is very moving
Oh Ninotchkia, we are your owners
Polish our sloped foreheads
Clean our six-toed feet
Make us proud, O Ninotchkia
Or we will roast your children on a spit

Oh Ninotchkia, we are your masters
Empty out our drool buckets
Braid the hair on our backs
Make us proud, O Ninotchkia
Or we will serve your livers in a stew
