      Wake up! (Miss Venezuela) from the same album is a good song.
      One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

          Talking Heads' "Big Country" (from More Songs about Buildings and Food) is a song narrated by a guy on an airplane, looking down on middle America and being glad he doesn't live there; it ends with him saying he just wishes he would get where he's going already. It may not fit your theme exactly, but it's a great song.

            How about "Spanish Bombs"? He mentions DC-10. It's by The Clash, an influential 1960s pop-funk band.

                Your song is about leaving Copenhagen for a new beginning. If it's about a new beginning, we don't need to know where you're coming from but rather to where you're going:

                "It Never Rains in Sunny California" if you're coming here.
                "God Blessed Texas" if you're on the way to see Sloww.
                "Georgia On My Mind" if you're off to see Imran.

                  And DC-10s didn't exist in the 1960s either.

                    How about a post reading Nazi .

                    Read the OP, Slow.

                              "Yes, we have no bananas" comes to mind, but that one is half Norwegian, half English and just a funny 80s song that doesn't fit your criteria I think.
