Lyrics & Translation

[English]
Okay, this is good.
We got the D batteries.
Let's get back to the present.
All right, get on.
(sighs) We made it.
Yeah, the Super Bowl was cool,
but frankly, no Tommy Brady, no Stewie likey.
Brian, there you are!
Come quick, they're about to announce
the unveiling of your statue on the news.
Statue?! For what?
What do you think, Mr. National Hero?
For stopping the 9/11 terrorist attacks and saving our country.
Oh, you--
I can't even express how mad I am at you right now.
If it wasn't for you,
those planes would've hit the World Trade Center.
Brian, what the hell did you do?!
I, uh, may have told my former self about 9/11.
What did I tell you about altering the past?!
Wait-Wait, when did you even do that?
Well, you remember when I said I was going to take a leak?
Brian, you shouldn't have done that.
Who knows what unforeseen consequences are awaiting us.
Saddam Hussein could be president.
Mexico could be the world's dominant super power.
Cookie Monster could have invented Facebook!
What is this?
Cookiebook.
LOIS: Brian!
Hurry, it's starting!
Good evening. I'm Tom Tucker.

Our top story: Quahog prepares to unveil a new statue
commemorating perhaps its greatest hero ever.
That's right, Tom.
It was ten years ago that an almost inconceivable plot
to destroy the World Trade Center
was thwarted by Quahog's own Brian Griffin.
This amateur video captured Griffin's heroism
in the face of a shadowy terrorist organization called--
holy (bleep), look at all those vowels--
Al Qua-aye-eeda.
Here. Make sure you get all this.

Time to terrorize the terrorists.
Ugh. You prepared catchphrases for yourself?
