STRONG BAD: {singing} Riballa, diballa, check email. {stops singing}
Hey Strong Bad Happy Flag Day! I bet you have a totally awesome flag for Strong Badia. You should share it with us. Your pal, Pablo Phoenix
STRONG BAD: Oh, you sound like some kind of popstar, man. Look Out Ladies Production presents: Pablo Phoenix, this Friday at the civic center. {typing} Anyways, Pablo. Happy Flag Day to you too, man. It just so happens Strong Badia has about the coolest flag you ever saw. {His voice starts echoing a lot, like he's speaking in front of a really large crowd} Would everyone please rise for the presentation of our national colors.
{The Cheat is standing beside the flag pole and pulls up the flag of Strong Badia. The flag has three horizontal stripes, one red, one white, and one brown. In the middle, there's a picture of a green snake holding a knife in its tail and crawling through a tire. The Cheat starts playing on a synthesizer.}
Strong Badia National Anthem
(Oh... oh I like that! Oh yeah!)
Come to the place where tropical breezes blow.
Come to the coolest place I know.
The people are so great,
But really there’s only me,
And that means I’m so great,
And also there’s The Cheat.
Oh there’s The Cheat in the place where the tropical breezes blow.
The Cheat in the coolest place I know.
And the ones are always cold,
And the parties last all night,
And there’s probably lots of chocolate,
And population tire.
Population
Tiiiiiiiiiiiiire

DVD Commentary Transcript
MATT: Hello, this is more commentary.
MIKE: This is more commentary, too. Thank you for joining us.
MATT: Uh... I think Pablo Phoenix was, well, back when we had a message board on the website-
MIKE: Yeah, he was one of the regulars
MATT: -was one of the regulars, yeah, which was kind of cool. We didn't know, tha- well, a- well, at the time, but later on he showed up and... true.
MIKE: Something we often talk about is the orignal lyrics to the Strong Badia National Anthem
MATT: Oh yeah, tell them- they're written down somewhere
MIKE: Yeah, I think I sang those this morning. Um, which were "This one is great, truly truly great"
MATT: "The land of all people, the land of different stuff"
MIKE: {laughs} Yeah
MATT: Or something like that.
MIKE: It HAD to be changed
MATT: It was not good at all. And, uh
MIKE: {singing} This one is great, truly truly great.
MATT: {joins in} Truly truly great... {spoken very quickly} thelandofallpeoplethelandofdifferentstuff. Um, so the scale here, that's a tiny Strong Badia flag there, Mike. The Cheat should've been much smaller.
MIKE: Heh, that's true. The scale... we're not very consistent with our scale.
MATT: Yeah... we should make a style guide.
MIKE: YOU can make a style guide.
MATT: Yeah, YOU can make one, more like.
{Mike laughs}'

MIKE: I think I did.
MATT: Awww, you guys!
MIKE: And all the action figures always cost $11 and one cent, which is your birthday.
MATT: Eleven oh one!
MIKE: November 1st. Now everyone knows your birthday so maybe they'll get you presents!
MATT: Don't get me any presents guys! Uh, I always wanted you to- you didn't do a clink there. I think I even made a clinking sound effect for those two bottles and you didn't put it in.
MIKE: There's lots of-
MATT: 'Cause Mike finished this up, I remember that. I had to go out of town.
MIKE: There's no-
MATT: And Mike finished it up. Well yeah, but it CLEARLY deserves a sound effect.
MIKE: Well there's LOTS of things that... you don't hear the X-Acto knife carving into Strong Mad's flesh sound that we always use.
MATT: That, that's true. This is what it sounds like. {Matt makes a gross-sounding carving sound effect with his mouth}
