Murphy Sisters (Carl Hoff) - You're a sap, Mr. Jap

[beanio12]

This is pretty catchy. 

[smstew1]

This is the most racist song I ever heard

[Fredfredbug4]

@smstew1 How? Did you even listen to the lyrics? It's just a song about America going to win against the Japanese in war. "Jap" is the worst word they say in the song. And even then that's not even a very harmful word.

[Yankee4Life]

@smstew1 You fucking moron. That's how it was 70 years ago. This song was a direct result of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. At that time they were not too concerned about being politically correct towards them. What an asshole you are.

[xxxrollingrockxxx2]

the only thing i like out of japan is the sushi and there technology, Toyotas, Subarus and there gardens besides that there all Tojo and japs hahaha anything is i have relatives who fought in ww2 and he still calls Japanese people japs lol so racist

[TheDrunkenDrunk]

you need to check your spelling

[ArkLover27]

even though it would be considered a racist song today, it definitely is catchy

[crisismachinegunner]

1 person is a jap

[69thPredator]

[DannyRebus]

1 person's a sap

[RonaldR2007]

Americans were real men then, they weren't afraid of their enemies, now even the president is a fucking pussy!

Maybe Trump can change that!!

Iraq vets for TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrWINNSLAW]

"It should be noted that this song came about in an era where there was no "political correctness" and the world was entrenched in war."

[RM4FSWWII]

This is a great song! World War II poem: Suikyaki -- No come back -- we shoot you down with acki acki!

[legoeasycompany]

thank you very much for uploading this, my grandfather use to have this record but it has been played so much it won't work any more

[audreymartinezzz]

Lets not forget about Pearl Harbor. japs are savages, i mean cowards for doing that.

[DannyRebus]

I don't like the lyrics but I like the song!!!!!! NO!!!!!!

[leicafool]

spike jones also did a good version of this gem. the pacific theater propganda tune to compliment Der Fuhrer's face

[cheesyegg87]

This is from an episode of Popeye

[DannyRebus]

[mando189]

[Igotattackedbyghosts]

Far out this is great!!!

[RockinEd]

There was a Popeye cartoon made of this song

[cage336]

i thought the andrews sisters sung this?

[kr103]

As fas as I know, they never did - but the Andrews Sisters had a nice song called "Six Jerks in a Jeep" ...

[leicafool]

I am not sure which version i prefer as theyre both great both this original and the spike jones version . This was i suppose the spike jones pacific theater version to "der Fuhrer's face"

[AirplaneRadio]

Thank you for posting this important historical document. I used it for my thesis on animation propaganda for WWII.

[kr103]

It's great that you found it useful. I hope your thesis was well received?

[AirplaneRadio]

Very well actually. I plan on using for a writing sample for Grad School Applications for American Studies.

[VTwinty]

Somebody should mix this with random anime videos. ^^

[w0w00t]

@VTwinty haha

good idea

[MIKEPREAMP]

The aforementioned politician is a phoney blow-hard.

[kr103]

I have just removed a comment that used this song as a vantage point to discredit a politician I am sure many people admire - especially Americans. Do not misunderstand me: I believe in free speech and the right of everyone to express his opinions. This song, however, I posted as a piece of history and not as an encouragement or a model of political discussion. If you have the need to say something, feel free to do so, but please do not insult people on a page I feel responsible for!

[mikedavis12]

I was so glad to find this on the internet as it is my mother and my 2 Aunts "The Murphy Sister" singing. Oh how I miss them....

Thank you for posting this and God bless...

[ezmac201]

this is funny to me

[tyikiki101]

this is not humor this is probably the one song like this that is politically correct

[illustriouschin]

its too soon for this kind of humor

[kr103]

I did not post this to make fun of a war that meant the loss of millions of people - anybody who is sick enough to do that does not need my assistance, I guess. But this is an important document, as it is the very first more or less artistically expressed response to Pearl Harbour. Personally, I don't think things get better over the years - one just gets used to the facts. It may always be too early for this or, if you're a pacifist, too late to prevent it, but reminders can be useful ...

[1947Desoto]

Many people don't understand that if you censor politicaly incorrect things from the past to prevent others from knowing about it is exactly the same thing as saying that discrimination never existed. Our views have changed in the last 60 years, but everyone should know the truth of our past. As for this record, America really felt this way after the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. You posting this record is important for the education of our history.
