Don’t denounce it, learn to pronounce it

There once was a gal named Melania

Who lived in Eastern Pennsylvania 

Wait, you say that doesn't rhyme?

As she told people all the time 

It's not pronounced 'Me-lah-nia', it's 'Me-lai-nia'

 

She'd say 'I wish people in Pennsylvania 

Were a whole lot more brainier 

Keep telling them they pronounce my name wrong 

But I won't have that problem for long

I've decided to move to Tanzania!'

 

Melania, there's something you need to hear

Want to make this point crystal clear 

You get so uptight 

About pronouncing names right

It's not pronounced 'Tan-zain-ia', it's 'Tan-zuh-nee-uh'!
