Sorry, man, didn't even see it until just now. If it makes you feel any better, my wife stared at it for about five minutes, and then when I started singing it, she ran and hid under the covers.
Apparently, she hates Rick Astley even more than she hates Octothorpe.

Did you expect any MC Frontalot lyrics to come out right being translated back from Korean? Gotta admit, that is indeed worse-mangled than many of the lyrics in this thread.

That was bad. This may be worse, but that's partially due to the source material.
(English->Japanese->English)
The bomb Hollywood entire world where the nucleus boobjobs which it flies to Tokyo, moves [yakuza] has been attached us who the present time buy us as for me who force those in order to look at our handmade pornos as for me who am angel Venus of the blue jeans where I am the movie star of God it possesses the power which is the extreme star which I do not stop under any condition, therefore if it extracts your sword, those of the fire increases in the heaven and the envelope shoots the rainbow from your eyeball hole when your name you shout, the other coelom and your voice seem like the thunder simultaneously!

interestingly enough, i tried a similar thing with google translate, but it was far too understandable. sheesh, google, don't you know the comedic value of mistranslations? them and their correctness!

I guess my previous quote was too obscure. It was WreckdoM's "Clause 5, Sub paragraph D".
The original:
Let’s fly to Tokyo and run the yakuza
Bomb Hollywood with nuclear boobjobs
The entire world will buy us presents
We’ll force them to watch our homemade pornos
I am a movie star I am a god
You are a an angel Venus in blue jeans
I am a super star I’ll never stop
You have the power, so unsheathe your sword and raise it to the heavens and envelope them in fire and shoot rainbows from your eye sockets and other body cavities and your voice is like thunder as you scream your name!
Here's another one. This time, not SF-related (English to Chinese to English):
Does not obtain your diamond ring that gift don' the t method any does not go to a your fancy automobile you to know you' Girl; About does not go to my luminous star to obtain a your hill house to look like you girl to need the true matter to want from the heart to obtain your some everything special girl It' s my box's spying, my box girl's It' Spying; s my box's spying, my box girl's spying

Here's another English to Japanese to English:
Calling that comeback, doing the damage which shakes my equal person and the fact that the suction cup is placed in I fear where there is here between many years ones where is not good like the monsoon the rain goes does to get off silent boom, hear in the explosion competition which overwhelms, I when dropping these lyrical poems to which I who am remarkable have the stare policeman of challenge call destroying the store, improve movement, you do not have to compare, I to remainder slice in order to obtain entirely, the case the competition which is cut in the eye has paid price

This made me say WTF (English/Korean). It's easy to guess but a fantastic butchering:

What language did you use? It needs to be a non - Indo-European one for best results - eg Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Basque. I wish there was an English/Kiribati translator on the web. That would be great. Steve Miller's "Jet Airliner" would be re-titled "Canoe that flies through the sky".
As usual, a contraction was expanded out, because Babelfish has problems translating words like "He's," "She's," "It's," and "We're."
Her the good young girl love Jesus who is her mother whom loves and her boyfriend she reaches about Elvis as well and the love end which is a young girl and as well also the United States.
